Thanks to Stellar Recruitment

University of Otago u20 Player of the Year is Mika Muliaina 🏉

Stubby is our Lone Star Dunedin Community Champ for 2026 🫶

Recently, we partnered with the Highlanders to help deliver a recent skills clinic with King's High School. Moments like this matter. Not just for the players on the field, but for the wider Dunedin community we are all part of.

Stellar Recruitment has a strong connection with both Dunedin and King’s High School. Paul Miller is a King’s High Old Boy, as are our founders Robbie McIlraith and Shaun McCambridge. It makes giving back to the school and supporting the next generation even more meaningful.

At Stellar Recruitment, we believe improvement comes from coaching, guidance, and creating opportunities. Whether it is in sport or careers, the principle remains the same: invest in people and help them reach their potential.

A big thank you to the Highlanders for getting behind this initiative and to King’s High School for having us. We are excited to play a part in supporting Dunedin’s future talent.

Impact at both ends of the field.

Your 2026 Defender & Forward of the Year, Te Kamaka Howden. 🔒
