Forrestal re-appointed as Winter Games Chef de Mission

March 2005 - USNZ Executive Director Jim Ellis welcomed the USNZ Executive’s decision to re-appoint Mike Forrestal as the Chef de Mission for the 2007 World University Winter Games in Torino, Italy, commenting “The success of the NZ team at the 2005 Games was testament to the effort Mike has put into the role and the development of strong relationships with the snow and ice national sporting organisations. I am looking forward to working with him again in the 22 month lead-in to the 2007 Games”.
