She represented her country at the 1956 Summer Olympics and 1958 British Empire and Commonwealth Games, winning a silver medal in the high jump at the latter event. Early life and familyHayward was born Jessie Mary Donaghy in Thames on 7 December 1939,[1] the daughter of Nona Jessie Donaghy (née Baverstock) and James Stanly Donaghy.[2] She grew up on her parents' farm at Waitakaruru, near Ngatea.[3] After leaving school she worked in Ngatea for a motor company, before moving to Auckland in 1960 where she worked for a bank.[3] In 1963, she married a dairy and poultry farmer, John Clive Hayward, and they lived on their farm at Netherton, near Paeroa.[3] AthleticsDonaghy took up high jumping at the age of 14, when she entered a competition in Hamilton "just for fun", and cleared a height of {{convert|4|ft|10|in|m|2|abbr=on}}.[3] At an athletics meet in Te Aroha in January 1955, Donaghy jumped {{convert|4|ft|11|in|m|2|abbr=on}} at an event won by the national champion, Noelene Swinton, who suggested that Hayward should seek coaching from Frank Sharpley.[3] For the next four years, Hayward had weekly training sessions with Sharpley at the Papakura Military Camp, where Sharpley was a physical trainer.[3] After just one session with Sharpley, Hayward leapt {{convert|5|ft|3+1/8|in|m|2|abbr=on}} at the Thames Valley children's championships in February 1955, breaking the New Zealand women's high jump record. She went on to win the New Zealand national high jump title six times, winning every year from 1955 to 1961 except 1960.[4] She recorded her personal best of {{convert|5|ft|7+1/2|in|m|2|abbr=on}} in winning the 1961 championship.[1][4] Donaghy also competed in the long jump, winning the national title in 1959 with a distance of {{convert|19|ft|9|in|m|2|abbr=on}}.[4] At 16 years old, Donaghy competed in the high jump at the 1956 Summer Olympics in Melbourne.[1] Her best height of 1.67 m was the same as that of the silver medallists, but she finished in seventh place on a countback.[1][5] At the 1958 British Empire and Commonwealth Games in Cardiff, Donaghy cleared a height of {{convert|5|ft|7|in|m|2|abbr=on}}, the same as the winner, Michele Brown of Australia, but was awarded the silver medal on a countback.[3][6] Donaghy also competed in the long jump, placing fifth with a distance of {{convert|18|ft|11|in|m|2|abbr=on}},[7] and was part of the New Zealand women's 4 x 110 yard relay team (with Beverly Weigel, Margaret Stuart and Marise Chamberlain) that finished fourth in the final.[8][9] Donaghy retired from athletics competition after the 1961 New Zealand national championships.[10] She was the first woman to jump over her own height;{{citation needed|date = April 2017}} she was {{convert|5|ft|2+1/2|in|m|2|abbr=on|order=flip}}.[1] Following her retirement and marriage, Hayward coached at the Paeroa Amateur Athletics Club.[3] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 {{cite web |url=https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/athletes/do/jessie-donaghy-1.html |title=Jessie Donaghy |date= |website=SportsReference.com |publisher= |accessdate=30 September 2017}} {{1956 New Zealand Olympic team}}{{1958 New Zealand British Empire and Commonwealth Games team}}{{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Donaghy, Mary}}2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.gravestonephotos.com/public/gravedetails.php?grave=563849&scrwidth=1200 |title=James Stanly Donaghy grave monument |date= |website=Gravestone Photographic Resource |publisher= |accessdate=30 September 2017}} 3. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 {{cite news | title=Athlete is now farmer's wife | date=17 September 1964 | work=New Zealand Herald | page= }} 4. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://www.anzrankings.org.nz/userfiles/file/National_Champions.pdf |title=National champions 1887–2016 |date=December 2016 |website= |publisher=Athletics New Zealand |accessdate=30 September 2017 | first=Stephen | last=Hollings}} 5. ^{{cite web |url=https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/summer/1956/ATH/womens-high-jump.html |title=Athletics at the 1956 Melbourne Summer Games: women's high jump |date= |website=SportsReference.com |publisher= |accessdate=30 September 2017}} 6. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.thecgf.com/sports/results.asp?gameid=3034&participants=0&countryid=&resultid=&eventid=1504&sportid=1504&teamid=&catid=133&resultsid=1&categoryid=133&athleteid=&sortid=1 |title=Results for the 1958 British Empire & Commonwealth Games – Athletics – High jump – Women |year=2014 |website= |publisher=Commonwealth Games Federation |accessdate=30 September 2017}} 7. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.thecgf.com/sports/results.asp?gameid=3034&participants=0&countryid=&resultid=&eventid=1506&sportid=1506&teamid=&catid=133&resultsid=1&categoryid=133&athleteid=&sortid=1 |title=Results for the 1958 British Empire & Commonwealth Games – Athletics – Long jump – Women |year=2014 |website= |publisher=Commonwealth Games Federation |accessdate=30 September 2017}} 8. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.thecgf.com/sports/team_results.asp?gameid=3034&countryid=&resultid=23850&sportid=1545&catid=133&athleteid= |title=Results for the 1958 British Empire & Commonwealth Games – Athletics – 4 x 110 yard relay – Women |year=2014 |website= |publisher=Commonwealth Games Federation |accessdate=30 September 2017}} 9. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.olympic.org.nz/athletes/mary-hayward |title=Mary Hayward |year=2016 |website= |publisher=New Zealand Olympic Committee |accessdate=30 September 2017}} 10. ^{{cite news | url=http://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/103115584 | title=Star N.Z. woman athlete to retire | date=9 March 1961 | work=Canberra Times | accessdate=30 September 2017 | page=32}} 11 : 1939 births|Living people|People from Thames, New Zealand|New Zealand female high jumpers|New Zealand female long jumpers|New Zealand female sprinters|Commonwealth Games silver medallists for New Zealand|Athletes (track and field) at the 1958 British Empire and Commonwealth Games|Athletes (track and field) at the 1956 Summer Olympics|Commonwealth Games medallists in athletics|Olympic athletes of New Zealand |
