"Nate has learnt so much from the team at Buzzas Gym," a family spokesperson told Newsport.
"Danny Buzza, son Lachy, and Josh are the trio of trainers who have played a valuable role in prepping Nate over the years.
"They've each provided their knowledge, experience, ring smarts, unwavering faith and support in Nate and it's been very much appreciated.
"Thank you Team Buzza."
The Douglas Shire duo will contest the championships in Hobart between November 23-25.
