Alex Bennett was our rider in Round 4 of the Yamaha New Zealand Senior Motocross Nationals 14-19 yrs MX 125 Class. Held at Rotorua on Saturday. At the conclusion of Round four and the competition Alex was rewarded with a hard earned tenth place nationally. This means he can display his place number on his bike during competition.

The other competition was the Hawke’s Bay Schools' Motocross Challenge.
The team for this event consisted of Michael Bell, Matthew Bell, Taylor Scadden, Travis Bennett, Ayden Taylor, Boston Taylor, Fletcher Amey, Finn Hazlett, Murphy Barr and Cooper White.

Registrations are now OPEN for many of our winter sporting codes. In 2024, 49 young men played Badminton, 333 played Basketball, 50 played Canoe Polo, 221 played Football, 120 played Hockey, 390 played Rugby, 36 played Squash and 100 played Table Tennis. With these numbers involved there is a significant amount of organisation and administration required. Having an accurate idea of player numbers is essential so we can ensure we have enough coaches and managers for our teams. Consequently, if your son is keen to play winter sport we encourage you to complete the registration process as soon as possible.
