A redemptive story about second chances.
Jaye Pukepuke committed 15 armed robberies before he was caught by police and sent to prison.
He tells people that while he spent almost six years inside, he served 16, because it took him another decade simply to get his life back to the starting blocks. Prison also took away his lifelong dream: to be a professional rugby league player in Australia's NRL competition. It was years before he was permitted to leave New Zealand's shores.
Jaye had to choose a different path to the one he had longed for - one that would take him on an unexpected journey to become a warrior of a different kind.

Jaye Pukepuke is a former Warriors and Maori rugby league player and the founder of the alternative education programme Bros for Change. Bros for Change works to create self-esteem, self-awareness, self-respect and self-management for young people and serious youth offenders. By using the protocols of Te Ao Maori, the programme helps to break down barriers and build strong relationships through encouraging respect for both the participants and the facilitators. Jaye lives in Christchurch.
