Sir Graham Henry is turning his hand to Olympic sports.

Sir Graham has signed a two year contract with High Performance Sport New Zealand, helping the country’s top coaches in the build up to the London Games.

The first assignment for the former All Blacks coach will be with the Yachting New Zealand coaches later this month.

This is in addition to his mentoring role with rugby coaches through the NZRU.

The appointment of Sir Graham is the first by new HP Sport boss Alex Baumann, who’s been in the job for two weeks.
