McEvedy Shield
The McEvedy Shield is an annual athletics competition held in Wellington, New Zealand, for four of the region's boys' secondary schools.
It was first held in 1922 and has become one of the highlights of the sporting calendar for the schools involved. The wooden shield, which is presented to the winning school, was donated in by Dr Patrick F. McEvedy to promote the spirit of athletic competition between the participating colleges.〔(McEvedy Shield: Pride on the line, The Dominion Post, Tuesday, 3 March 2009 )〕 An old boy of St Patrick's College, Wellington, Dr McEvedy went on to represent England in rugby union.
The 2015 competition was won by Wellington College on Tuesday 3 March at Newtown Park, taking the Shield for the first time since 2011.

The shield was donated by Patrick Francis McEvedy (1880-1935)〔(http://www.scrum.com/churchillcup/rugby/player/1664.html )〕 in 1922. McEvedy attended St Patrick's, Wellington, from 1895 to 1898, before going to Guy's Hospital in London to train as a doctor. He toured New Zealand in 1904 with Bedell-Sivwright's British team and again in 1908 with the Anglo-Welsh team. He later returned to Wellington and was Wellington Rugby Football Union President 1931-1933 and NZRFU President 1934-1935.〔(http://www.spcob.org.nz/SITE_Default/news_and_events/newsletter_archive/march02.asp#0-7 )〕
