Rugby union careerLile played rugby union for the Oriental club in Wellington alongside Albert Baskiville and was a Wellington representative. Lile was widely regarded as being one of the top 30 players in the country during the 1907 season and he won North Island selection that year.[3] Rugby league careerLile was selected by Baskiville to be part of the professional All Blacks 1907-1908 tour of Australia and Great Britain. As a result, he received a life ban from the New Zealand Rugby Union. During the tour his background as a soldier proved useful as he often led the team in training drills. While on tour Lile played in three test matches and scored two tries in all tour games. On his return from the tour Lile was instrumental to the foundation of the Taranaki Rugby League. The team met with immediate success and in the 1909 season defeated both Wellington and Auckland, despite both teams featuring many of his fellow tourists. Lile was the Taranaki player-coach in both the 1908 and 1909 seasons. Lile was part of the 1909 New Zealand tour of Australia, playing in all three test matches. LegacyLile has a street named after him, Adam Lile Drive, in New Plymouth.[4] The Taranaki Rugby League club trophy is also named the "Lile Shield" in his honour.[2] In 2008 he was named in the Taranaki Rugby League Team of the Century.[5] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.rugbyleagueproject.org/players/Adam_Lile/summary.html|title=Statistics at rugbyleagueproject.org|publisher=rugbyleagueproject.org|date=31 December 2017|accessdate=1 January 2018}} {{Taranaki Rugby League Team of the Century}}{{New Zealand All Golds 1907}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Lile, Adam}}2. ^1 Coffey and Wood The Kiwis: 100 Years of International Rugby League {{ISBN|1-86971-090-8}} 3. ^John Haynes From All Blacks to All Golds: Rugby League's Pioneers, Christchurch, Ryan and Haynes, 1996. {{ISBN|0-473-03864-1}} 4. ^Taranaki Trivia {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081019130517/http://www.pukeariki.com/en/resources/TaranakiTrivia/trivia09.htm|date=19 October 2008}} Puke Ariki, Accessed 20 August 2009 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.stuff.co.nz/taranaki-daily-news/sport/671468/Dream-team-of-century-is-named|title=Dream team of century is named|date=14 October 2008|work= Taranaki Daily News|accessdate=24 September 2011}} 11 : Year of birth missing|Year of death missing|New Zealand Army personnel|New Zealand military personnel of the Second Boer War|New Zealand national rugby league team players|New Zealand rugby league players|New Zealand rugby union players|Taranaki rugby league team players|Taranaki rugby league team coaches|Wellington rugby league team players|Rugby league locks |
