Elder originated from Bundaberg, Queensland, where he played for the All Blacks Hockey Club. He was part of the winning team in the 1999 Champions Trophy at Brisbane. The price was high, because during the Dutch play-offs he neglected the call from Australia"s Head Coach Barry Dancer to come over for a training session with the men"s National Team.
Having retired from international hockey, Elder played club hockey for United Hockey in Brisbane for some time whilst still representing the Queensland Blades.
A plumber by profession, he is fond of surfing and fishing.
