Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz Thursday April 15 2021 The Star SPORT 37 Family connection on edge for Panthers • By Chris Barclay WHEN FORMER New Zealand Warrior Corey Lawrie introduced his boy Jayton to rugby league on the frozen fields of Doncaster in England’s north as a four-year-old, he never imagined they would play premier grade together. Yet that scenario unfolded last weekend when dad answered an SOS and his teenage son debuted for their beloved Hornby Panthers against Riccarton in the opening round of the Canterbury Rugby League premiership. Corey reckoned he’s the lightest second rower in the competition at 88kg; Jayton made the step from captaining the club’s under-18 team, scoring a brace on the wing during the 40-6 victory over the Knights. They combined on the right edge, a security blanket for both after they were unexpectedly thrust into the top line-up by Hornby coach Jed Lawrie, Corey’s brother. “I was quite happy to just play Bs this year but Jed was a bit short of second rowers. I’m 41, I feel like 81,” Lawrie joked ahead of a round two clash with the Papanui Tigers. “I did an eight-week challenge a couple of months ago. I lost 7kg and I can’t seem to put it back on.” Lawrie played four games off the bench as a utility player for the Warriors in 2007, before heading to England the following year. He resumed his playing career at the Panthers when he returned home in 2009. “I’m not embarrassing myself yet, when that happens I’ll pull the pin. At the moment I’m still competing pretty well.” Jayton, meanwhile, was rewarded for a strong off-season. “It’s always good to see your son achieve something he’s been aiming for. He’s worked hard for the opportunity,” said Corey, COMBINATION: Jayton Lawrie (left) and his father Corey played premier grade together for the first time when Hornby thrashed Riccarton in the opening round of the Canterbury Rugby League Premiership. who played down his parental guardian role. “You always worry you’re going to have a dust up with someone if they rark him (Jayton) up too much, but he can look after himself, the kid.” Jayton was rapt with his debut, and said dad helped calm the nerves. “Having him out there helped, he gave me a bit of ball too with us being on the same edge.” Jayton only had one clear memory of starting out in Doncaster: “All I remember is the snow really,” he said. While happy to make his premier grade debut, Jayton said the under-18s, who play on Monday night, were still a priority so he would have to manage his workload. “I might miss a few premier games to help my body out, I still want to help that (under-18) side out,” he said. Papanui defaulted to Halswell last weekend, but Canterbury Rugby League chief executive Duane Fyfe believed the Tigers would front on Saturday. “I know they’ve got some challenges player-numbers wise but they’re confident they’ll be able to put a team out,” he said. Corey felt for Papanui’s plight. “That’s the state of rugby league at the moment, everyone is a bit light on numbers these days. I’m playing because our numbers were a wee bit dicey.” Young yachtie cruises to national title • By Chris Barclay ALTHOUGH COVID-19 twice scuttled his plans to represent New Zealand overseas, talented Optimist sailor Will Leech is staying upbeat. After all, the 12-year-old Cobham Intermediate School student and member of the Charteris Bay Yacht Club does have time on his side. By becoming the South Island’s first winner of the Optimist National Championships since fellow Cantabrian Jayvee Buchanan in 2010, Leech should have been setting sail for Lake Garda in Italy, venue of the world optimist championships in June-July. However, the global pandemic means he will stay closer to home in Charteris Bay on the southern coast of Lyttelton harbour to continue training while playing rugby over the winter months. “It’s disappointing not to be PLAIN SAILING: Talented Christchurch sailor Will Leech won his first Optimist national championships by a comfortable margin in Auckland. PHOTO: YACHTING NEW ZEALAND able to go to Italy, the world championships will be a goal for next season,” he said. Leech expertly improved on last year’s second placing in the Open fleet with a canny display of consistent sailing on the E course used by the America’s Cup and Prada Cup teams in Auckland. He only won one of the 12 races he contested off the Maraetai Sailing Club headquarters last week, but he also only had a solitary double-digit placing, a 10th he was able to discard from his points score. Otherwise he never finished outside the top-six among the 76-strong fleet throughout five days of racing. He finished 15 points clear of Auckland’s Joe Leith from the Murrays Bay Boating Club. “What I was focusing on was keeping consistent because one of Dad’s mates was the OK Dinghy world champion and he only won one race,” Leech said, referencing Christchurch sailor Matt Stechmann’s triumph at Melbourne in 2014. “I’m been working really hard over the last few seasons, it’s always been a dream to win it. I’m so stoked to beat all the Aucklanders,” he said. Leech, who claimed the boys title and the overall honours, sails a raft of different boats, including a P Class and an F8 Foiler he built with father Dan. “It’s super competitive at that top level so to go up there and actually win it is a huge achievement,” Leech’s father said. “It’s pretty full on, race days up in Auckland, sometimes you’re on the water for six hours a day.” Each competing country can send their top-five ranked optimist to the global showpiece, so Covid-19 also ruined Leech’s plans to go to Europe last year, where Italy withdrew their bid before the world championships were cancelled. Fortunately Leech, who started sailing at age six, is eligible to compete in the Optimist class for another two years. Leech has already represented New Zealand abroad as a part of a development team to Noumea in 2019 and has sizeable goals on the horizon. “I want to be involved in the Sail GP and the America’s Cup,” he said. • More sport, pages 38 & 39 Do you need a Plumber, Gasfitter, Drainlayer or Electrician?
