    THE ACTION KICKS OFF THIS SATURDAY NIGHT Sir Peter Leitch Club Newsletter RLWC 2017 24th October 2017 It’s 4 days until the Kiwis play # their first game of the 2017 RLWC 193 Back The Kiwis By Enjoying Lunch By David Kemeys Former Sunday Star-Times Editor, Former Editor-in-Chief Suburban Newspapers, Long Suffering Warriors Fan E ARE only days from the kick-off of the 2017 Rugby League World Cup, with Australia and England W– in what will be a hell of a match - doing the honours on Friday night. Of course the Kiwis take on Samoa on Saturday night at Mt Smart, and that one should be a good game too. League legend Olsen Filipaina is taking the ball out, which is pretty cool given he has represented the Kiwis and Samoa. The game I am looking forward to is the Kiwis v Tonga in Hamilton, because there is not going to be a lot of love lost when those two sides meet, after everything that has gone on. Before a ball is kicked I have the Kiwis lunch at the Ellerslie Events Centre to look forward to on Friday. When Pete asked if I would take it on with Gordon Gibbons and Tony Feasey, I foolishly said yes, not want- ing to let Pete down. But in truth Gordon has been amazing and we have an incredible line-up of Kiwis greats taking to the stage, and players with a long history of World Cup and test glory in attendance. I have been to several of Peter’s Kiwis lunches and enjoyed every one of them.

It was such a great experience for me growing up and participating in swimming championships offered in the public school system. School Sport offered so many opportunities for myself and gave me so much motivation to perform both in and out of school. Throughout my primary schooling I did well and reached the State Championships, winning medals. In high school my competitive swimming outside of school competition suffered and I was thinking whether or not to continue. When I was 16 I was able to win a medal in the 800metres at the NSWCHSSA Championships and that was a massive boost for me, It was the start of a new chapter in my swimming career. It pushed me to new levels. In Year 11 and Year 12 I was able to make it through to NSW All Schools and then to the National School Swimming Championships where I was able to win medals. The year after leaving school I was selected in my first Australian Open Swimming Team at the 1999 Pan Pacific Championships.
