Former Wairarapa-Bush rugby CEO Tony Hargood is currently walking the length of the country to raise awareness and a few dollars for the NZ Rugby Foundation. 

The foundation provides holistic support to players whose lives have been changed by serious injury, and while they do run more standard fundraisers, Hargood decided to take a more unique approach.  

He’s stopping at every Provincial Union home ground along the way and taking a kick at goal, with a plan to auction those balls off to raise money.  

Hargood told Piney there’s probably easier ways to do this, but walking is all part of the fun and the journey.
