On Monday the 31st of May I went to the NYLD ( National young leaders day). It was so much fun. There were so many great leaders. the first person that came and talked to us was Justin Vaughan who is a cricket player that trained as a doctor but got rung up one day out of the blue and go t asked if he would fill in for a injured player in the black caps from then on he played for there team. He encouraged us to take every chance you get because you won’t regret it. Our second speaker was Mark Inglis who told us his amazing story of how he lost both of his legs and that he still climbs he just tries that little bit harder. Throughout the day we had great advice from James Blake, Nick Tuitasi, Alison Shanks, Matt Gibb and Rob Harley. I filled in my whole booklet with advice from the start of the day till the finish. The hosts were really cool they were Charlie off “What Now”, Alice Gallager and Whitney Pa’u because they got us all involved. In the end we all had a great time and I hope that maybe I can go back next year. This link takes you to the NYLD website for more detail on the day I attended http://nyldnz.org/
