Plays Softball for New Zealand Darcy Rikihana doesn't want anything to do with this pitch during a game at Wellington on 10 February between a ‘New Zealand’ team and the visiting San Antonians softball team from Texas. U.S.A. The visitors won this game 4–1 but Darcy won a place in the full New Zealand team that played the tourists at Auckland on February 18. A member of a prominent sporting family in the Manawatu, Darcy Rikihana is one of the many Maori stalwarts of the Huia Chiefs club that has dominated local softball for years. The club has several times won its way into inter-provincial finals for the national club championship. It is noted for ousting fancied teams from Wellington and Hutt Valley. Among its scalps are the well known Broadway club, that has won the national championships six times.
