#AD Rowing in an eight, you can’t be the guy who gives one brilliant stroke, then ten average ones. We only win when the whole crew delivers, stroke after stroke.
Milford has been named Canstar’s Provider of the Year for KiwiSaver for the seventh year in a row – no other KiwiSaver provider has done that.
One good year is an achievement. Seven in a row sets a standard.

It’s Milford Moments time.

They’re back. And they’ve been training. 💪

@camwebster and @michaelbrake are back for the 2027 season of Milford Moments, and they’re already putting in the work for whatever challenges are coming their way…

Think you’ve got a challenge that will put them to the test? Start thinking now!

Make sure you wave down Mike & Cam at Partners Life NZ Rowing Championships, Partners Life Maadi Regatta and Partners Life Beach Sprints Championships.

🤫 And TOP SECRET… word on the street is your favourite Milford socks have got a whole new look.

Same socks, fresh new look! 🧦

But Milford Moments don’t stop there. As the official livestream partner of Rowing New Zealand, Milford is bringing you closer to the action again this season, with:

🎥 Race highlights from across the season, including epic drone footage

🔄 Relive the Moment - crews and athletes watching their races back and sharing how it felt all over again

🧦 And, of course, the return of the Milford sock challenges!

More racing. More Milford Moments.

#AD Kiwis are big on backing our own. There’s something different about dealing with people who are part of your community – and it matters.

#AD Performance matters. But so does knowing you're dealing with people who genuinely care.

Trust isn't built overnight. It's earned through consistent actions, year after year.

Was looking through the archives and found this goodie. Time flies. 5 years ago did something pretty cool with this crew, but also wrapped up an incredibly fun rowing career with so many people not in this video. Certainly miss it at times, but life now with 👰‍♀️ and 👶 is 👌 taken in Lake Karapiro by @michaelbrake
