BIOGRAPHY

Shaun Stevenson had an outstanding season for the Chiefs, one of the leading try scorers in Super Rugby Pacific in 2023.

He played for the 2016 New Zealand Under-20s after being an NZ Secondary Schools selection in 2014. Around the first-class scene since making his provincial debut for Waikato in 2015, Stevenson has matured into a consistently high-performing player, whether at fullback or on the wing.

While he returned to his home region of North Harbour in 2017, the impression he made with Waikato saw the Chiefs sign him for Super Rugby, and he has remained with them. By 2022, he started to reap the benefits of his persistence when playing outstanding games for the Māori All Blacks, for whom he has played 12 games since 2017, and being selected for the All Blacks' XV that toured in Ireland and England in 2022.

Coming into the 2023 season, he played from the outset with a high degree of confidence and in partnership with the Chiefs' high-quality backline, he scored some outstanding tries and featured at the top of the tryscoring lists.

Stevenson scored a try on Test debut against Australia in Dunedin on Saturday 5 August, 2023.
