It will go down as one of the most daring celebrations performed at a Rotorua rugby match.
Waikite winger Autumn-Rain Stephens completed the ice challenge during her team's semifinal match on Sunday, in the Bay of Plenty women's competition.
The ice challenge has become a popular phenomenon in New Zealand and features daring participants submerging themselves in ice-cold water or having a bucket of ice water poured over them.
Stephens completed the bone-chilling challenge after scoring her second try of the match on Sunday.
Her mum, Liza Stephens, who also plays for Waikite, said she had no idea her daughter had planned the celebration.
She said with a laugh that Autumn-Rain scored her try and raced over to her friends to get soaked.
