Chair of Sport Bay of Plenty Board of Trustees Grant Utteridge said it was delighted at the appointment.

"Heidi has been a key staff member in our team for the past ten years and the board looks forward to working with Heidi to achieve our recently revised strategic objectives in the next phase for Sport Bay of Plenty."
