It is with deepest regret that we are going to have to cancel our final club night of the season :(
The weather is here to stay and we need to keep our athletes safe and warm. For our senior club members, we will be in touch with potential alternatives for the final events if we can run them.

We would like to say a massive THANK YOU to all of our athletes and their whanau for their brilliant efforts throughout the athletics season. Your smiles, determination and willingness to grow yourself and have some fun has been amazing.

We would also like to say a MASSIVE THANK YOU to our wonderful Taitua Rangers, parents and committee who have helped out running events, setting up stations and providing a great environment for our athletes over the season. Without you we could not do this!!!!

We would like to celebrate and recognize the efforts all of our athletes at our annual END OF SEASON PRIZE GIVING.
This will be held on:
Sunday 19th April at the Glenview Primary School Hall.

Thank you all once again.

Warmest regards,
