Bronze Boot Award
Bronze Boot Award
Sponsored by Star Media and its Rugby News (New Zealand) magazine.
The Bronze Boot was inaugurated in 1992 by John Blondin and his publishing company Rugby Press International (Australia)
It is awarded to one player from each team ‘For the most constructive player in a Schools Test series’. It is now seen as the most prestigious award for test matches between the Australian and New Zealand Schoolboys. Many recipients have gone to represent the Wallabies or All Blacks.
It is now known as the Rugby News/Jerry Collins Memorial Bronze Boot award for the New Zealand recipient.
