Ireland & Railway Union

After making a name for herself in the Womens Sevens Series, Eve made her 15s Ireland debut at just 18 years of age, going on to quickly amass over 30 appearances for her country, playing in the Guinness Womens 6 Nations, the 2024 Summer Olympics, and the 2025 Womens Rugby World Cup.  A rampaging runner and tackler, Eve is a force to be reckoned with on and off the pitch, combining her on-field exploits with a Masters in Criminology. Eve became a viral sensation with her Ireland teammate Anna McGann during the 2025 Womens Rugby World Cup, creating a campaign called #releasethefleece, in reference to the release of Ireland Retro fleece.

Connacht, Ireland, & the British & Irish Lions

A Canberra-born winger who’s laid his roots in Galway. Since making his debut for Connacht, he’s now an Ireland team mainstay, with an international career that began in the 2022 Guinness Six Nations. He touched down an epic try which saw Ireland beat the Springboks in the 2023 Rugby World Cup, which will forever confirm his name in Irish Rugby folklore.With Mack now sporting Canterbury Speed Elite boots, and his trademark white and green Canterbury Raze headguard, he is undoubtedly part of the Canterbury family.

Leinster, Ireland, & the British & Irish Lions

The Ireland prop has amassed over 75 caps in the iconic green jersey, showing form that has seen him add 3 Guiness 6 Nations winners medals, 4 Pro12 titles and 1 European Rugby Champions Cup to his trophy cabinet.  Despite being picked in the initial squad, injury ruled Andrew out of the 2021 Lions tour, but 2025 will see this dynamic forward pull on the famous Lions red jersey for the first time.  He is also our first Canterbury Ambassador to wear our Stampede Groundbreak Elite boots, made especially for top-level Forwards.

Edinburgh, Scotland, & the British & Irish Lions

Born in South Africa, “The Greatest Schoeman” has been a mainstay in the Scotland front-line since his debut in 2021, after joining Edinburgh in 2018.  He has since amassed over 40 appearances for his country, as well as becoming Lion #868 in the 2025 British & Irish Lions tour of Australia.  This ferocious Loosehead became part of the Canterbury family in 2025, joining Andrew Porter as ambassadors for our groundbreaking Stampede Elite boots range.

Hurricanes & England

This NZ-born flanker was always ear-marked for a big future, progressing through the All Blacks ranks, before making his Super Rugby debut in 2012 with the Wellington-based Hurricanes.  After over 100 games, he switched shores and joined Wasps for the 2018/19 season, before racking up 9 caps for England.  After a short stint in France at Perpignan, Brad now finds himself back in familiar surroundings at Hurricanes.  Brad joined the Canterbury family in 2024, as the face of our latest Phoenix Genesis Elite boot range.

NEW ZEALAND

Mark has always been renowned for his talent on the wing, but he truly made the world sit up and notice with two tries in the opening game of the 2023 Rugby World Cup against France.  Since then, he was awarded World Rugby Breakthrough Player of the Year for 2023, and signed as a Canterbury ambassador in 2024, standing in good company as another elite athlete to wear our Speed Infinite Elite boots.  Mark will ply his trade over in Japan from next season, but this is one player with the world truly at his feet. 

Ireland & The Clovers

After making her Ireland debut in 2022, Anna shot to fame with an outrageous hat trick against Italy in the 2025 Guiness Womens 6 Nations, displaying the explosive pace and clinical finishing that she has become so well known for.  Her adaptability and determination on the pitch is equally matched off it, successfully running her own fashion business.

He came through the youth system at Rugby Paese and Benetton, progressing to the Benetton Rugby first team in the United Rugby Championship where he has become a key figure. Zuliani made his Italy senior debut in 2022 and has since been a regular in the national squad, including being named for the 2023 Rugby World Cup. He is seen as part of a talented generation shaping the future of Italian rugby.
