Josh and Drew Neemia are both ambassadors for the COCA-COLA Rugby’s Unsung Heroes campaign, in association with TV3 and have been scouring the country to find exceptional Kiwis who are doing great things for Rugby at a grass-roots level.

The four deserving winners from around the country will be paid a visit by Josh and co ambassador Drew Neemia and rewarded with an incredible prize - a double ticket package to the Rugby World Cup 2011 Final, on Sunday 23 October.

How do you feel about Rugby World Cup 2011 coming to New Zealand?
I think it’s a fantastic thing for New Zealand, but I don’t think the public fully understands the enormity of the Tournament yet and the effect it will have on the country. It will be an exciting, festive time that will generate hype for the entire country amongst the global Rugby playing nations. We are so fortunate to be hosting Rugby World Cup 2011.

What will you be doing to enjoy Rugby World Cup 2011 with your friends and family?
It will be a combination of work and celebrating the Rugby for me. When I’m not working I’ll have the opportunity to enjoy showing off my country and sharing New
Zealand Rugby culture with friends who are coming from all over the world for Rugby World Cup 2011.

What are your favourite memories of previous Rugby World Cups?
Obviously being involved in two Rugby World Cup Tournaments myself is a wonderful memory, but watching the Rugby World Cup 1987 victory as a teenager was a real treat. Marveling at the great skills of the players was inspirational to me as a youngster.
