Coaching career edit

Between 2010 and 2013, Matehaere served as head coach of the Otago Gold Rush in the Women's Basketball Championship (WBC).[2] In 2011, he guided the Gold Rush to the championship and won the WBC Coach of the Year.[3][4] In 2013, he was named the recipient of the Service to Women's Basketball award.[5][6]

Matehaere coached the New Zealand Junior Tall Ferns between 2012 and 2016.[1][2] He also coached the senior national team in 2016 on their tour of China before the Olympic Qualifying Tournament.[1]

In November 2019, Matehaere was named head coach of the Otago Nuggets for their return season in the NBL in 2021.[7] However, COVID-19 saw a revamped 2020 competition which presented Otago with an opportunity to re-enter the league a year earlier.[8] He went on to guide the Nuggets to the championship[9][10] and won the NBL Coach of the Year.[11]

In February 2021, Matehaere was re-appointed head coach of the Nuggets for the 2021 season.[12] The Nuggets went on to miss the finals.[13]

In March 2022, Matehaere was re-appointed head coach of the Nuggets for the 2022 season.[14] He went on to lead the Nuggets to their second championship in three years with a win over the Auckland Tuatara in the final.[15]

In January 2023, Matehaere re-signed with the Nuggets for two more seasons.[16]

Personal life edit

Matehaere's daughter Hannah was a junior basketball player in Otago.[17] Another of his daughters Lucy has been a member of New Zealand canoeing squads.[18][19]

In October 2021, Matehaere left his teaching job at Otago Boys' High School after 22 years[20] to take up the role of Otago-Southland club development officer for Surf Life Saving New Zealand.[21]
