Mary Mansell has been appointed executive director of the New Zealand Assembly for Sport and Peter Hirst has been appointed to a similar position for the Coaching Association of New Zealand.
“Thanks to the full support of the Hillary Commission for Recreation and Sport it has been possible for both CANZ and the Assembly to improve their management structures and thus to improve the service they provide to New Zealand sport,” said an assembly announcement. Mansell was formerly the executive director of both organisations in a shared arrangement. She is well qualified having an applied masters degree in recreation administration and an extensive knowledge of sport in New Zealand as well as an active involvement as a player, coach and administrator in her own sport, badminton.
