Year 13 student Sef Johnston recently had the incredible opportunity to represent New Zealand at the IIHF Ice Hockey World Championships - Division 3A, held in Mexico City.

As part of the New Zealand U18 team, Sef and his teammates faced off against some tough competition, including teams from Mexico, Iceland, Hong Kong, Turkey, and Israel.

They finished in 5th place after a 6-2 victory over Iceland. This strong finish highlighted the team's competitive spirit and skill on the ice.

One of the standout moments of the tournament for Sef was playing against Mexico in front of their home crowd of over 1700 spectators.

We are incredibly proud of Sef’s achievements and his dedication to his sport while representing New Zealand on the international stage.

Congratulations, Sef!
