Another one of our outstanding senior athletes has just returned from representing New Zealand at the Australian Athletics Junior Championship in Brisbane.

Troy Waldrom continued his outstanding form this season, being part of the NZ U19 4x100 relay team which placed second at the Australian Champs and broke the NZ U19 age grade record in the process (awaiting ratification).

Troy also qualified for both the 100m and 200m finals, coming 5th in the 100m and 7th in the 200m. This is an outstanding achievement, placing him among the fastest for his age in the continent.

Awesome work Troy and for guiding the relay team and Troy this season.

One of our outstanding senior athletes has just returned from representing New Zealand at the Australian Athletics Championship in Sydney.

Asher Robertson is officially a decathlete, competing at the Australian Championships in his first international meet. Winning the 100m sprints and the High Jump, Asher finished up 7th in a competitive U20 field to finish his season in style. We are very proud of you Asher, you are such a great model for our younger athletes who you inspire both on the big stage, as well as at club nights.
