Zarn Sullivan
Zarn Sullivan (born 10 July 2000) is a New Zealand rugby union player, who currently plays as a fullback or fly-half for the Blues in Super Rugby and for Hawke's Bay in New Zealand's domestic National Provincial Championship competition.
Sullivan was born in Napier in Hawke's Bay, where he attended Napier Boys' High School. While at Napier Boys', he played for the school's First XV team and represented Hawke's Bay at Under 14 and Under 16 level.
In 2017, he followed in his brother Bailyn Sullivan's footsteps and moved to Auckland where he spent his final two years of secondary school at King's College. He played for the college's First XV team in the Auckland 1A 1st XV competition. In 2017, an injury prevented him from being selected in the Auckland Under 18 squad, but a year later he was invited to attend the Blues Under 18 camp.
In 2019, Sullivan represented Auckland at Under 19 level at the Jock Hobbs Memorial National Under 19 tournament. That same year – his first year out of school – he was named the Auckland Rugby "Club Rookie of the Year" at the province's end-of-year awards function.
In 2019 and 2020, he played for both the Blues Under 20 and the Blues 'A' team.
In September 2020, Sullivan was named in the Auckland squad for the 2020 Mitre 10 Cup season. He made his debut for the province – via the bench – on 20 September 2020 against Wellington and earned his first start on 17 October 2020 against Tasman.
His first, successful season playing for Auckland saw him rewarded with a spot in the Blues squad for the 2021 Super Rugby season. Having already played for the Blues during preseason ahead of the 2020 Super Rugby season, after being offered an Interim Training Contract, he made his Super Rugby debut for the franchise on 1 May 2021 against a Chiefs side that featured his brother Bailyn Sullivan. He scored a try on debut.
Sullivan went on to play 7 games for the Blues in his first season, which culminated in the franchise winning the Super Rugby Trans-Tasman title. While he played all his 1st XV rugby and age-grade representative rugby at first five-eighth, he played at fullback in all his senior games for Auckland and the Blues. He did this so well, that he was named the Blues "Rookie of the Year" at the end of the 2021 season.
