A rugby coach at an exclusive Auckland high school has been suspended for poaching a player from a poorer South Auckland school.
The suspension is part of a move by sport bosses to act on long-running concerns about the practice among secondary schools.
St Kentigern College 1st XV coach Tai Lavea - brother of former Auckland Blues star Tasesa Lavea - has been banned from any match day involvement with the team, after being found guilty of breaching tough recruitment bylaws to poach a player from Papatoetoe's Aorere College.
