Canterbury striker Sam Lane has competed at two Olympic Games.
The boy from Temuka has an unbelievable engine, regularly topping the aerobic fitness tests, and is a good receiver and connector with a strong drag flick. He is also quickly becoming a goal scoring machine averaging a goal every other game in the last 24 months, and up until an injury he was the leading goalscorer in the Dutch Hoofdklasse (first division).
