Nash in 2003

Obviously this page isn't going to include any cricket results but I thought I may as well note down any significant post-cricket events:

June-July, 2003
Dion Nash participated in the "Celebrity Ski and Snowboard Race", as part of the Lindauer Queenstown Winter Festival.

June 1, 2003
Dion Nash has taken on a new role as interviewer for the sports show Sportzah!, which starts on TV3 soon: [More]. Also, Nash will apparently make a guest appearance on the TV2 program "The Fish and the Fury" in the coming weeks.

May 2, 2003
It's one year since Dion Nash announced his retirement from all cricket. Since then, he and a business partner have started up a company exporting ice cream and meat to Japan. Nash has not walked away from sport entirely, however. Late last year, Nash played an outspoken role in the dispute between New Zealand Cricket and the Players' Association, of which he is a founding board member. Nash also does a few hours' work a week with the New Zealand Academy of Sport, mentoring athletes in the ACE Advisers program. Meanwhile, Nash has assisted some of his former team-mates in a de facto mentor capacity, advising Andre Adams on his recovery from a back injury and providing motivational guidance to struggling batsman Lou Vincent. Nash has no immediate plans to seek cricket-related employment, but has expressed interest in perhaps coaching a school team one day.

April 6, 2003
Team "Sierra Maestra" - comprising Dion Nash, Mike Sullivan and captain Rob Nichol finished last out of 15 in the 24-hour ARC Adventure Race which took place on the Coromandel Peninsula on 5-6 April 2003. The multi-sport event involved sea kayaking, hiking and mountain biking... and no cricket.

February 1, 2003
Dion Nash and Bernice Mene were married.
