UoW Blues Awards 2026 🌀

It was a privilege to travel back to Hamilton to attend the 2026 Blues Awards alongside an incredibly talented cohort.

I received a blues award for my sporting achievements from July 2025 - July 2026. It was special to have my partner and father there to share this occasion with.

Thank you to the University of Waikato and the Sir Edmund Hillary Scholarship program for supporting my sporting endeavours alongside studying. taken in University of Waikato, Hamilton by @nick_collier_

FMT - New Sponsor📌

I’ve been incredibly fortunate to receive support from First Mortgage Trust for the 2026 season.

Thanks to the grant, I was able to attend and compete at the 2026 World Championship in Oklahoma City.

FMT is well known for supporting athletes & communities. Their work creates a meaningful difference and helps so many people succeed.

Thank you for all you do! by @nick_collier_

38th in the head-to-head ⚔️

I was hoping to close out my international season with a better result. Yet I’m here, competing against the best in the World, so for now that’s enough.

Now it’s time to rest and reset and then start preparing for next season👊

Exciting trip coming up👀
