Promoting and supporting sport in New Zealand and India

Learning is the grassroots part. Our participants train, drill and play within the ordinary structures of the sport in their host country. A young cricketer in India learns things a coaching manual in New Zealand can't teach, and the reverse is just as true.

Leadership is what tends to surprise people. Take a young athlete out of their usual setting, ask them to represent their club, their school and their country, and they grow into it. Many return to become the ones organising, mentoring and leading at home.

Legacy is what remains once everyone has flown home: stronger coaching, working relationships between clubs and schools in both countries, and a route that the next group of young athletes can follow more easily than the first.
