Well done to all Wellington teams that recently participated at Takapuna Cup in Auckland.
Team Kokiri defended their title from last year, again finishing first in the Women’s division.
Mana Menz came second in the Masters division, a great result and improvement on last year.
Team Makaira (photo below) came 8th in the Open division, a good result considering that most team members were new to the change over game and the ‘lost’ support boat. This is a good basis for next year’s event and Vaka Eiva in Rarotonga later this year, we will see more of Team Makaira in the future.
Team Kika from Aniuwaru came 18th in the Open division.

Kia ora koutou,
Hoe Tonga Pacifica Waka Ama Association & College Sport Wellington is proud to announce that we will be running the regional secondary school sprints again this year.
All approached coaches will read in the information pack that we have tightened up on requirements this year based on last year’s event.
We would also like to hear from an experienced W6 team of adult paddlers to demonstrate a W6 capsizing drill to be performed before we get racing underway. Please email us, if your crew is interested. This would be a great koha to give our rangatahi by showing how a W6 safety drill is carried out on the water.

Please just mark in the ‘novice’ column if the team has junior status and flag this – in this way, provided there are enough entries, the organisers can run a junior category.

You will note that following the OC1 Champs Hoe Tonga was left with a surplus of $57.50. In it’s the meeting on 7 December, the Hoe Tonga Committee decided to invest this money to contribute to the purchase of its first VHF radio to improve the running and safety of future races.
