Playing career
Provincial Rugby
Treeby came up through age group levels for Wellington and made his full provincial debut in 2009. By the 2010 ITM Cup, he was a fixture for Wellington, making 10 starts and scoring his first two provincial tries. He plays centre.
Super Rugby
Treeby signed with the Highlanders for the 2011 Super Rugby season, following his former Wellington coach Jamie Joseph south. He quickly established himself as a key member of the squad, starting each of the team's first 8 games and forming an excellent partnership with Kendrick Lynn, before suffering a knee injury. He returned from injury to start the final four matches of the season, and scored his first Super Rugby try against the Lions on 28 May.
