Childs takes over from Neil Treweek who is retiring after 23 years at the WRC. Ken Rutherford, General Manager of the WRC, paid tribute to Treweek and welcomed the appointment of Childs: "Neil has given 23 years of loyal, dedicated service to the WRC.

The WRC is confident the choice of Brad is a good one and we look forward to welcoming Brad and his family to the Waikato".
