In a recent blog Dr Clark paid credit to two Selwyn residents, Jessica Jonggowisastro and Rick Parry, for their recent success in their respective sporting fields. I believe a third name should be added to that list - Callum Bailey. Callum recently competed in the men's National Hockey League for Southern, helping his team to a creditable sixth placing and scoring several important goals along the way. Earlier in the year Callum was selected for the Junior Black Sticks and took part in the recent world cup, helping the kiwi team to a fourth placed finish. At the lower end of the hockey spectrum, Callum also captained Selwyn against Knox last Thursday - however even with his experience and skill we went down 4-2, one of the very few sports fixtures we've lost this year. Callum also captained the Selwyn cricket team to a convincing win in first semester. Certainly a name to watch in the future!
