Lane Ririnui | Sport

I have been involved in sports for as long as I can remember. Football has been a passion of mine for many years and it is big in my household from my dad and older brother. I started playing when I was about 3 years old. I’ve played senior womens football since I was 14, first for Tauranga City AFC and then for FC Tauranga Moana. I’ve also played for Mount Maunganui College in school tournaments. In recent years I’ve been fortunate to make national representative teams, being in the NZSS U16s in 2024 and the NZSS U18s earlier this year (2025). Outside of football, I strive to achieve highly in school and aim to attend University upon leaving school. I am incredibly passionate about music, and have played guitar for the majority of my life.
