Sir Brian to honour former AB Players
A tree planting ceremony will take centre stage before the Heartland championship match between Wairarapa Bush and Thames Valley tomorrow.
As part of the annual Living Legends promotion, Sir Brian Lochore will plant a native tree just inside the main gate of Trust House Memorial Park at 1.15 pm.
It will become one of more 170,000 such trees which have been planted through out New Zealand from 2011 to 2013, honouring rugby legends and made available through sponsorship from the Tindall Foundation, Project Crimson, Department of Conservations and Meridian.
Sir Brian Lochore is an iconic figure in Wairarapa Bush and New Zealand rugby. Among his many notable achievements was captaining the All Blacks to just three losses in 18 tests and then guiding them to success as coach in the inaugural World Cup in 1987.
WBRU president Rex Playle said it was “very appropriate” that Sir Brian should do the planting at Memorial Park.
“His contribution to rugby in this part of the world has been immense. He truly is a legend,” Playle said.
Congratulations
Chaz Matthews Greytown, Daryl Pickering Carterton, Cody Cunningham Tuhirangi
