Sports Awards 2021

Cursey Adie-Cropley —

Congratulations to Steve Salelea - Salter Trophy Recipient for 2021. The Salter Trophy is awarded to the top sportsman at King's High School. Steve has been selected for the New Zealand Secondary School Rugby Barbarian team for two years as a prop; a wonderful achievement.

The special guest was the legendary New Zealand Track and Field coach, Brent Ward, who shared his experience of what is required to coach at the highest level.

Cups and trophies were awarded to athletes from all King’s 1st teams as well as special prize winners.
