The Star Thursday August 1 2019 30 SPORT The Star looks back each week at Canterbury’s sporting icons from yesteryear. This week Gordon Findlater talks to former Black Sticks drag flick master and Canterbury fast bowler Hayden Shaw 7 MARCH LINCOLN Tickets On Sale Now www.selwynsounds.co.nz Cricket and hockey – a Shaw thing HAYDEN SHAW is one of New Zealand’s last great examples of excelling in two different professional sports at the same time. He’s now deputy principal at Pleasant Point Primary School, but not so long ago, he was known as the world’s best exponent of the drag flick while playing for the Black Sticks in winter, and charging in as a medium-fast bowler for Canterbury in the summer. One of Shaw’s greatest memories even incorporated both sports. During a 50-over match in Timaru, he hit a fitting game-winning six over point off the bowling of Darryl Tuffey. “It was so big it actually went onto the hockey turf, which was quite relevant,” he said. Shaw, 38, scored 130 goals in 177 tests for the Black Sticks between 2002 and 2011. All but one of his international goals came with his trademark drag flick. Between 1999 and 2005, he played 15 first-class cricket matches for Canterbury, taking 36 wickets at an average of 37.13. He also played 15 short format matches in which he took 23 wickets at an average of 20.39. Shaw began playing both cricket and hockey at a young age with Selwyn – now known as Southern United – and cricket for New Brighton. He played representative cricket and hockey through the age groups and at Shirley Boys’ High School. Following secondary school, Shaw was picked up by both the national cricket and hockey academies. He played cricket internationally for New Zealand VERSATILE: Hayden Shaw about to let rip during the 2005 North v South State Of Origin cricket match in New Plymouth, and celebrating after he scored New Zealand’s first goal against Australia in the first of a three-test series at the 2003 Oceania Cup in Christchurch. at under-19 level. However, he was denied a spot in the squad for the 2000 under-19 World Cup due to being just a day too old to compete. “I like to say I missed out on the World Cup by a couple of hours. My birthday is August 31 and the cut-off date was September 1. I have a bit of a laugh because Nathan McCullum’s birthday is September 1. He’s a day younger than me, so he was able to play but I wasn’t,” said Shaw. In 2002, Shaw burst onto the international hockey scene. At the Manchester Commonwealth Games he helped an unfancied Black Sticks side – which began the year ranked well outside the world’s top 10 – to a silver medal with 13 goals to finish as the tournament’s top scorer. With the international hockey season stretching outside the traditional New Zealand winter, opportunities in cricket became limited. One summer, Shaw remembers returning to Christchurch after playing hockey overseas. It was just before Christmas and he had hardly played any cricket. He went along to Canterbury cricket training to be a net bowler. However, pace bowler Warren Wisneski injured himself at the training and Shaw was asked to play a four-day game. “I said, ‘well, I’m going away in a couple of weeks with the Black Sticks again so I can play, but I’m not going to be around for long’. I think I went out and got four wickets in both innings, and that was the only game I played for Canterbury that season,” said Shaw. While with the Canterbury Cricket set up, he was part of a team which included the likes of Nathan Astle, Craig McMillan, Chris Cairns, Chris Harris, Shane Bond and Chris Martin. “One year I couldn’t make the team for a semi-final, but was named in the South Island team a week later, so we were really stacked,” he said. In 2004, Shaw produced one of his best remembered goals at the Athens Olympics. In a group match against India, which was televised live on at 7.30pm on Saturday evening in New Zealand, Shaw scored a match-winning drag flick from a penalty corner after time had expired. “Knowing that all the family and friends were watching it at home in prime time, that was pretty special,” he said. After studying to be a teacher, Shaw worked as a relief teacher during the latter part of his hockey career. He then took up a role at St Andrew’s College before making the move to Temuka with his family. Shaw is still actively involved in sport. He is a player/coach with the Temuka Hockey Club, but due to the cartilage in his knee being all but worn away, he is doing more coaching than playing at the moment. He also coaches his children’s teams and usually plays Twenty20 cricket for Temuka over the summer. The side have won back-to-back T20 South Canterbury premier club titles.
