"Nui, whom I have had the privilege of working alongside through rugby league, delivering clinics and training sessions together.

I have also engaged with Nui as a parent, where he has supported my own children by offering additional skills development training.

Nui is highly dedicated to giving back to the game of rugby league. He consistently shares his knowledge, time, and skills to support the growth and development of rangatahi and tamariki of all ages.

His commitment to the sport and the community is evident through the many roles he undertakes.

I have known Nui to volunteer his time refereeing games, coaching at local, representative, regional, and national levels, and providing one-on-one support to young people.

He places a strong emphasis on player health and wellbeing, taking a holistic approach in all that he does.

Nui is clearly driven by a genuine passion for supporting the development and success of youth.

In addition, Nui actively networks with community stakeholders to ensure the needs of young people are met and to help create meaningful pathways for their future.

The youth I have worked with have spoken highly of Nui, often sharing how he has helped them build a strong mindset, encouraging them to strive, work hard, and always give their best.

Nui is a great person with a genuine and caring nature. I have no hesitation of endorsing him."
