PERFECT FIT
Putting the North Harbour Rugby team through its paces each week falls on the shoulders of AUT Sport and Recreation graduate Jan Reyneke. He confirms that it wasn’t always this exciting but a mixture of hard work, sheer determination and a solid base of knowledge, gained while studying at AUT has seen him right. “As confidence in my ability grew, so did my involvement and level of responsibility. I started by being left in charge of the weight loss group at Pakuranga United Rugby Club and soon progressed to working with the fitness teams for the Blues and the All Blacks. My study taught me the importance of networking to grow a career. This, coupled with the practical experience gained while studying, saw me step into a full time internship with the Blues strength and conditioning staff while completing my Masters. “I can honestly say I would not be where I am today if I didn’t have the opportunity to get out into the working environment while I was a student and learn the things I did.”
