Dame Patsy Reddy will replace Stewart Mitchell as the chair of NZ Rugby.
Dame Patsy Reddy has become the first female chair of New Zealand Rugby.
She was elected chair at NZ Rugby’s final board meeting of the year in Auckland on Wednesday and will replace outgoing chair Stewart Mitchell, who said the timing was right to step down after nine years on the Board.
Mitchell will finish-up on January 31.
Current NZ Rugby directors Professor Farah Palmer (Waikato, Ngāti Maniapoto) and Bailey Mackey (Ngāti Porou, Tūhoe, Rongowhakaata) have been elected as Dame Patsy’s joint deputy cairs.
