"Nesh is an amazing leader and ref, she also develops young refs to ensure our game continues"

"Tanesha is a fantastic leader who brings a genuine passion for rugby league and, particularly, the development of referees. She creates an environment where referees feel supported, valued and encouraged to keep improving.

What really stands out is her commitment to developing people, not just officials. Her enthusiasm for the game is infectious, and she gives her time and energy to help others grow in confidence and ability.

As someone who has come into refereeing in Hawke’s Bay, I’ve really appreciated her leadership, encouragement and willingness to support referees at all levels. Rugby league in Hawke’s Bay is fortunate to have someone with her passion and commitment leading referee development."
