King's 1st Touch Profile - Know your team!

This week is Year 13 student, Tyler Metua. In his fourth year of the King’s 1st Touch Team. Tyler is a Defensive Middle for the team, and when you read about our Lions achievements you will find Tyler's extend inside and outside the classroom.

Leadership and excellence endorsement awards litter his CV as a junior and senior, so it is of no surprise to see Tyler push himself in the academic arena, sitting scholarship Physics and Chemistry in 2023.

Tyler is a 'multi code talent', having represented King’s in Athletics, Rugby and Touch at various levels. Now that the Touch season has come to a close, he is gearing himself up for a cold winter fix as Rugby trainings start to ramp up.
