New Zealand Breakers 25/26 Youth Indigenous Jersey - Personalised

Artist: Leroy Roberts

I whakapapa to Ngāti Kahungunu & Falealili. I was raised in South Auckland and I currently live in Papakura.

Māori & Pasifika art has always been a part of my life. Drawing , painting , carving, tattooing and now, digital. My work stems from my cultural roots and is heavily inspired by ancient traditional practices dating back hundreds of years. I am inspired by nature, history and people. I take pride in serving our people and giving back to communities through charity work , course based initiatives and creative outlets.I dream and strive for an inclusive world full of art , kindness and gratitude. One that shares a vision of manaakitanga that is driven by a genuine love for one another.

Jersey Design:

Inspired by the Manu (Bird) This design at the neck or top of the kakahu represents the vision both individually and as a team. The manu has the ability to fly solo but often travel in flocks and work together to provide.

Koru facing each other represent all the people. Behind the scenes that keep the wheels turning, the acknowledgement of the collective efforts moving towards the same goal.

The beak or ngutu represent communication, a vital part of a successful group. It's a reminder to be open and speak and ingest each other but also a reminder that a great leader must also be able to listen.

Niho / Taniko: This design reflects sheer grit and determination, the work nobody sees, the early mornings and late nights, the battle, the war. It reflects the bond through pressure and to rise to the occasion.This section represents the heartbeat of the club.. the motivation when the chips are low.. the final push when the odds are stacked against us.. the FANS. It recognises the support and uplifting walrus in times of need.

Whanau:These two mangopare swimming upstream pay tribute to our family. Above all, the people that sacrifice for us to do what we need to provide and also chase our dreams, we acknowledge them and their hard work as well as ours.
