@bayimports said in NZ U19s:
He was playing for the BOP U19s.
He also played for the steamers in their win over Otago last week
Was just referring to his possible eligibility. All the Waikato and BOP players named in the NZ U19s were playing in the U19 game I watched. Usually Jan 1 is used as the date for age-group teams.
