Simon Bridges: Generally Famous - A podcast by Stuff Audio
Categories:
Still one of the world's best-known netballers almost a decade after retiring from the international arena, Irene van Dyk grew up in apartheid-era South Africa before moving to Aotearoa in 2000 and becoming one of our most popular athletes. She beams in from her Napier home to tell Simon about her incredible life and career - meeting Nelson Mandela, carrying a gun and overcoming criticism when she first moved to New Zealand.
