Most notably winning 4 National championships with the Canterbury Beavers, a silver medal at the FIH Pacific Cup with the NZ Presidents XI, and 3 Federation Cup bronze medals with St Margarets. After speaking with Sunjay, he said “What I enjoy the most about coaching is the opportunity to work with people from all different backgrounds and the ability to help them learn and develop as a player and a person.”

Presenting the umpiring workshop is international umpire Rachel Murphy. Rachel has been umpiring National tournaments since 2009. She was appointed to the Oceania Cup in 2017 and umpired the Under 21 tri-nations in Canberra.
