Who is Kate McMeeken-Ruscoe?

Kate McMeeken-Ruscoe is a female basketball player for New Zealand. At the 2006 Commonwealth Games she won a silver medal as part of the Tall Ferns New Zealand women's basketball team.

At the age of 3, Kate embarked on a journey to the great land of Whakatane, New Zealand. The locals took to her warm nature, and determination from the outset and she quickly became one of the local celebrities of the Whakatane nightlife, largely because of her prowess on the dancefloor when it came to doing the Haka, and abililty to benchpress whole nightclubs.

Kate realised her dream of making the Olympics for Basketball in 2008 and had to put her aspirations of being the Mayor of Whakatane on the back burner as she pursued a Gold medal. On the day she left for Beijing, the local Mayor Glen Cook declared Kate's birthday a Public Holiday whereby all inhabitants of the local area must get together and work through Leadership and Coaching courses.

Since her retirement from Basketball, Kate has become "the chosen one" of the Gold Coast. She focuses most of her energy on the gang known as G2G whereby membership is difficult to attain as they must complete key actions like buying a Commodore and referring to everyone as "Cuzzy bro". Membership is secretive with the only physical signs of some members being larger than normal biceps where they look like they're carrying luggage.
