Jorja Miller
Jorja Miller (born 8 February 2004) is a New Zealand rugby union player. She plays fifteen-a-side and seven-a-side rugby union, and is a member of the New Zealand Women's Sevens team. Miller was a member of the New Zealand Women's Sevens team that won the gold medal at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris.
Miller was born on 8 February 2004 in Timaru to Tracey and Craig Miller. She has two older brothers, Corin and Deon. Her grandfather and father played for Timaru-based Harlequins seniors rugby team (her father playing more than 200 games) while her mother was a member of the South Canterbury women's team.
Following in the footsteps of her great-grandmother, grandmother and mother, Miller began highland dancing at the age of four. She eventually went on to become an age-group national champion in her favourite dance, Sailor's Hornpipe. In 2021 she participated in the under 18 national championships.
Miller also played basketball for a period.
Miller initially attended Timaru Girls' High School before moving to Christchurch Girls' High School as a boarder in 2019 in the hope that by playing girls' club rugby with the High School Old Boys Club she would more consistently be participating in a higher level of play and also gain exposure that could result in her being selected for the Black Ferns Sevens team.
She began playing rugby at the age of four with her brother in a Timaru Harlequins Rugby Football Club boys’ team. In 2015 she was captain of the Timaru Harlequins Rugby Football Club's under 12 team and was one of only two girls to make the South Island under 48 kg side. In 2016 she was once again captain of the Harlequins team and was a member of the under 65 kg South Island team.
She was a member of every South Canterbury age group rugby team until at the age of 13 she became ineligible to play mixed rugby and switched from playing for Harlequins to playing only for Timaru Girls' High School team and regional girls teams.
In 2017 Miller played for Timaru Girl's High School in the fifteen-a-side Aoraki secondary schoolgirls competition. The team lost 60–42 to a combined Mt Hutt-Ashburton college in the final despite Miller scoring three tries.
