Moe mai rā, Chris

Awanui Sports Complex would like to acknowledge the passing of a true Awanui man, Chris Radich, who gained his wings earlier this week.

Chris was a man who loved Awanui. He gave his time, his heart and his energy to our community, our Complex and especially our tamariki.

Laid to rest in all his Awanui gears, surrounded by the ones he cared for.

The supporter of the year award your family donated to the club will live on.

You will always be part of Awanui.

Bereavement notice of behalf of the Radich Family.

RADICH, Chris
22 June 1951 - 24 August 2026

Passed away suddenly but peacefully in his sleep at home.
A much-loved son of Ljubo and Martha. Brother of the late Evar, Mate, Ivan, Dick, George and Danica. A loved uncle and papa to many, and a loved and treasured friend to Ellen and her family.

A service to celebrate Chris’s life will be held at Geards Funerals, Chapel, 13 Pukepoto Road, Kaitaia, on Friday, 28 August 2026 at 11.00am, followed by a private cremation.

Chris will be lying in state at Mate’s home from midday Wednesday, then on Thursday will move to Waimanoni Marae for his final night.

All are welcome to come and pay their respects.

Time to give Mr & Mrs Everywhere their flowers. The below is from the Mangonui netball centre and we couldn't agree more. These two are having a huge impact on the growth of our club and we thank them for their efforts this year.

VOLUNTEER OF THE MONTH
Our Centre simply wouldn't operate without the incredible people who give their time, energy and skills to our clubs, teams and players.
Our Volunteer of the Month recognition is an opportunity to shine a light on some of those people who continually put their hands up, get stuck in and make netball happen.
🌟 JUNE – NAZ & FRANK | AWANUI
A huge congratulations to Naz & Frank from Awanui, our June Volunteers of the Month!
Naz and Frank have played a huge part in revitalising their club, helping to grow Awanui's senior teams and putting in the mahi across both junior and senior netball. AWAZ ARE WE.
Between them, they coach senior and junior teams, support the management of their club, fundraise, help wherever needed and continue to contribute to Awanui outside of the netball space as well.
They are the type of volunteers every club needs – people who don't just talk about what needs to be done; they roll up their sleeves and get it done.
Whether it means coaching, managing, fundraising, learning something new or simply being the people who turn up when help is needed, Naz and Frank show up for their club in every sense.
Their willingness to continually upskill themselves and put their hands up wherever they can has had a real impact on Awanui.
Congratulations Naz & Frank – and thank you for everything you do for your club and our wider netball community!
