Golf’s Longest Day

January 2021, the peak of summer, Ali Hooshyari and Nicholas Forrester played golf from sunrise to sunset, to raise money for men’s health, specifically prostate cancer and testicular cancer. They played 14 hours of golf, walked 42km, took 48,000 steps and raised more than $3,000 for the Prostate Cancer Foundation.

Hautapu Rugby Club Blue Ribbon Day Charity Match and Auction

The Cambridge-based rugby club commissioned a special rugby strip, by Paladin Sports, for its Senior A team to play in against opponents Fraser Tech at Memorial Park in Cambridge. People paid a gold coin entry fee as a donation and the Hautapu rugby jerseys were later auctioned at the clubrooms. The Blue Ribbon event was organised by club member Phil Herewini who was pleased with the result of the charity game and auction, raising more than $25,000 for the Foundation.
