Member of New Zealand's National Team Dies in Tragic Accident, Aged Just 33
Sad news to report, as Dale Harrop, 33, passed away suddenly on Saturday, December 17 in Auckland, New Zealand. Media reports suggest that Harrop died in a fatal surfing accident and was unable to be resuscitated upon reaching the shore.
"As someone who embodied all it meant to be a great Ice Black, he leaves behind a legacy of sportsmanship, kindness and determination. Dale's infectious smile and gregarious personality followed him everywhere he went. He brought his leadership, warm-hearted jokes and sense of community with him," the New Zealand Ice Hockey Federation said in a statement.
Harrop represented New Zealand on the international stage since 2005, when he debuted for the U18 team, joining the men's team in 2008. He won five NZIHL titles in his professional career, and he also appeared in ten IIHF tournaments with the Ice Blacks in Divisions II and III.
All the best to his friends, family, and teammates.
