“Sport can play a vital role in strengthening the wellbeing of children and young people, empowering them both physically and mentally, whilst also building confidence,” Moloney said. “We’re thrilled that more than 300 schools and football clubs registered to win a visit and we’re looking forward to encouraging Kiwi kids, especially girls, to live healthier, longer, better lives, by staying active through sport.”
AIA NZ chief customer officer Angela Busby said that the insurer is proud to be encouraging children to be active and stay in sport.
“At AIA NZ, we want to partner with New Zealanders to support their health and wellbeing throughout their lives. By taking small steps to build healthy habits when they are younger, our children can grow strong and thrive,” Busby said.
