Henry to 'coach' again

World Cup-winning coach Graham Henry has a new job in New Zealand - coaching the coaches.

Henry, who stepped down as the All Black coach following last year's World Cup victory, has signed a part–time contract with the New Zealand Rugby Union through to the end of 2013 - with the aim of helping to develop the NZRU's high performance coaches at Super Rugby and NPC level.

NZRU CEO Steve Tew said they are "delighted" to have Henry involved in helping to develop our top coaches and to help them grow to the next level.

"He obviously brings a huge wealth of experience - and unparalleled success - after eight years as coach of the All Blacks and his insights will be invaluable for our high performance coaches."

Henry said he was excited by the next step in his coaching career.

"Even going back to my time as a teacher and headmaster, I have been keen to help people grow and develop their skills and to now move into a position of mentoring our leading coaches is something I'm really looking forward to," Henry said.

"New Zealand has an outstanding crop of up and coming international coaches and if I can play a small part in helping them develop then I will."

Henry finished his All Blacks career as one of the most successful coaches of all time. He coached the All Blacks to 88 wins in 103 Tests for a winning percentage of 85.4 percent.

As well as winning World Cup 2011, the All Blacks have held the Bledisloe Cup every year since 2003, won the Tri-Nations five times and achieved three Grand Slams against the Northern Hemisphere Home Unions.
