BIOGRAPHY
Tauranga born Leroy Carter has been best known for his scintillating play for the All Blacks Sevens in recent years and was nominated for World Rugby Sevens Player of the Year in 2023 after being part of New Zealand’s World Series winning squad. Two years later he was showing the same wide range of attacking skills, pace and determination for the Gallagher Chiefs as he scored nine tries during his debut season on the way to the 2025 Super Rugby Pacific final.
Carter has long been marked for big things after being the MVP at the 2017 Condor Sevens while at Tauranga Boys’ High School, then a member of the New Zealand Under-20 team and Bay of Plenty’s Steamers Bunnings NPC squad in 2019.
He was first brought into the All Blacks as injury cover for Caleb Clarke in the 2025 Lipovitan-D Rugby Championship, but after scoring a try on debut against the Springboks and impressing in his first three Tests, Carter has been named in the Northern Tour squad.
