Over the next seven years Todd managed to string together a number successful seasons with the ball which resulted in Canterbury winning five championships and making his debut for the Blackcaps.
.
Although the success Todd was having in the domestic competition, he was struggling to nail down a regular starting spot in the Blackcaps. Making nearly twenty appearances for New Zealand across all three formats over his 15-year career. Poorly timed injuries, the pressures of international cricket and selection have been valuable character builders for Astle. These experiences have driven him to start a business called INNERSPIN, Todd has harnessed his experiences and learning’s with his aim to inspire and empower others to maximize their potential.

He is the all-time leader in most games played in the New Zealand NBL with 409, which was accomplished over 24 seasons. When you talk about service to a sport, Boucher has done it all, from player, to video analyst, to coach, to general manager and is still involved in a number of different capacities. His services to the game of Basketball was recognised in 2014, when he received the honour of becoming a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit.
.
At 6’5, Boucher would be the first to admit that he wasn’t the most athletically gifted player but he found a way to be effective on the court in order to gain more minutes. Boucher’s Basketball IQ set him a part from most players, being able to play a range of positions and always seeming to be a step ahead of everyone on the court. Known as a defensive stopper, he often having to guard the best player in the opposition’s team. In 2002, the Tall Blacks shocked the world by coming 4th at the World Championships. Dillon played a key role for the team throughout the tournament and made a number of crucial plays in pressured moments. This epic result, not only put New Zealand on the map as a credible Basketball nation, but also gave the sport the boost it needed around the country, inspiring a generation of future Basketball players. Another one of Dillon’s highlights in his career was being a part of the New Zealand Breakers three-peat ANBL Championship run. Boucher believed the key to the success of that team was the culture of selfless players and the buy-in from everyone to perform their role to the best of their ability.
.
One of the hardest things professional sportspeople face is successfully transitioning into a career after retiring, Dillon is an example of how to do it successfully. Coaching seemed like the perfect fit for Boucher with his basketball experience and IQ. But Boucher wanted to widen his skillset and was constantly seeking ways to development himself outside of the game. He slowly became more interested in what was happening off the court and in the New Zealand Breakers offices. This lead to an opportunity in corporate sponsorship and eventually becoming the General Manager of the club. Always trying to find new ways of growing himself in the corporate world, Boucher more recently occupies a number of diverse roles in different industries enjoying controlling his own hours. In this podcast, Dillon gives current athletes some simple advice around what value they bring to the corporate world and some of the harder aspects of transitioning to be aware of.

(1:50:15)Finishing high school, Andy chose to race in the Laser class sailboats and made his big breakthrough in 2012, when he came 3rd at the World Laser Championships. Leading into the Rio Olympics, Maloney was in a tight head-to-head battle with Sam Meech, both competing for the one spot to represent New Zealand. Three events were to decide who was going to secure their ticket to the 2016 games and unfortunately for Maloney, one day of bad decisions on the water cost him his chance.
.
Andy was completely devastated after spending eight years of his life fully committed to achieving his ultimate goal. Unsure what to do next, Andy needed a new challenge to work towards and he decided to set his targets on being a part of America’s Cup Sailing team Emirates Team New Zealand. Willing to do anything to get his chance, Andy quickly impressed, with his sailing knowledge, relentless work ethic and being a handy cyclist. Fast-forward a year of hard graft and adding 15kgs of muscle, Maloney earned his way onto the ETNZ boat and found himself as one of the Cyclors. This unique design feature helped New Zealand lift one of sports oldest trophies and brought it home to share with the rest of New Zealand.
.
With the ultimate goal still to make it to the Olympics, currently, Maloney finds himself in a similar situation as he did in 2016, battling for the one spot to represent New Zealand. But this time is a little different, a new boat, now in the Finn Class, a new perspective and the competitor is his Best Man from his wedding Josh Junior. This is an unique relationship, as they have decided to share everything, from boat set ups, to race tactics and to race reviews. With the goal that whoever gets the opportunity to go to Tokyo will have the best chance of winning the Gold Medal for New Zealand.

In this episode, Lucy opens up to host, Logan, about:
Covid lockdown period/Everyday on the Erg (3:51) Childhood/Family influences/Why Rowing (6:59) Transferring High Schools to row full-time (10:08) Studying/Training/Living in Cambridge “The Sporting hub” (14:25) First taste at the Elite World Championships/Choosing the right boat (17:00) A usual training week for an Elite rower (20:24) "Addicted to the challenge" - Lucy's Why (23:42) Choosing the most random places in the World for Rowing Regattas (27:01) Was there a time you wanted to give up? Not being able to break into the Elite women (29:57) “Regatta of Death” missing out on Rio Olympic spot – Lucy’s lowest point (33:47) How do you define success? (43:28) Switching boats into the Eight – going from sculling to sweeping (48:05) 2018 World Championship Nightmare (50:45) How do Olympic Rowers fund their careers (52:14) Training for four years for the Olympics - What happens if you wake up feeling terrible?

Where she will be in 10 years time? (1:15:18) Rapid Fire Question (1:18:18).
.
Spoor’s patience had been tested in her early years of being a Professional Rower, with not being able to crack into the elite New Zealand squad. Lucy eventually made the transition and found herself as a member of the Quad sculls crew in their bid to secure a spot at the 2016 Rio Olympics. Having not securing their spot in the games the previous season, the Quad found themselves heading to the ‘Regatta of Death’ needing a top two finish. Fully confident that they were going to qualify, however on race day, things didn’t go to plan and had missed their last opportunity by finishing third.
.
Every day since High School had been dedicated to reaching the Olympics and it had come down to that six minutes. This was devastating for Lucy who was not sure how she was going to be able to pick herself up from this moment. The next year was a roller-coaster ride of emotions with winning and also wanting to quit, but something inside was still burning to not give up on her dream and thought she had come too far to give up now. With the pool of talent that Rowing New Zealand had, they were keen to create a Women’s Eight crew. This meant a switch from sculling to sweeping and straight away Lucy had a new focus and being a part of a bigger crew suited Lucy, who initially thought she would not enjoy it as much. An embarrassing showing at the 2018 World Championships with not even reaching the final was the wake-up call the women needed. They were determined to make amends the following year and not only won New Zealand’s first Women’s Eight World Championship but also secure a spot for the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. Lucy is now one step closer to realising her dream of winning an Olympic Gold medal.
.
Spoors journey of being a professional rower has come with a number of moments that has tested her strength as a person. She has managed to push herself through these times to gain valuable wisdom that she shares through this podcast.

New Job/Level 5/Charity run (3:05) Family influences/Key lessons growing up (7:47) Choices of A-League teams... made a bad decision (13:09) Forgetful Sydney FC experience (17:21) Career spiraling down at 19...

(1:38:34) An amazing sacrifice & gifts Jeremy’s wife did for a close friend – the surrogacy journey (1:42:40) Where is Jeremy Brockie in 10 years time? (1:49:38).
.
After a successful Olympic campaign, Jeremy was back playing Professional Football but it wasn’t until the 2012/13 season with his now fifth A-League side, the Wellington Phoenix, that he had his breakout season finishing runner up to the Golden Boot. Already making a number of appearances for his national side, being part of the historic All Whites Squad that had an amazing run at the 2010 World Cup, with being the only unbeaten side in the tournament.
.
At 28 years old, Brockie’s career was coming together and he was set to make his home in Wellington and lead the attack for the Phoenix side. But a change of coach and new tactics proved to be a bad formula for Brockie, who now found himself on the outer. Seeking a new opportunity, Jeremy found himself and his family on a plane to South Africa. Joining up with SuperSport United, Brockie strung together his best years as a professional and won a few titles along the way. He was in the best form of his career and was wondering what he needed to do to get back into the national side, as he was determined to add to his one and only goal for the All Whites.
.
This form lead to a well-deserved contract in 2018 with one of the bigger clubs in the South African Football League, the Mamelodi Sundowns. The last few seasons have proven to be another test for Jeremy, as he has found himself in and out of the side. But Brockie still feels like his best years are still in front of him and wants to play the game that he loves for as long as possible.
