HI Everyone
Selwyn Brown has changed the course going through Feilding to eliminate two dangerous railway crossings. Also the transisition point for the Under 15 boys and girls is now outside North Street School, North Street Feilding.
Coming into Feilding now is straight down Makino Road on left of railway line. Turn left into North Street, carry on up North Street, turn left into Kimbolton Road, proceed approx 3km up Kimbolton Road till turns right towards Colyton. Race carries on, on this road till turns right onto Watershed Road down to Hiwinui then course same as previously listed
So remember for Under 15’s leaving now from outside North Street School Feilding

What a brilliant day – the weather couldn’t have been kinder. The suggestion to run the club champs at this time of the year rather than the end of the year was taken on board by the events working group and the date was set. So if it seems that we have had club champs in very quick succession then you are right we have. The medals for these club champs will be awarded at the AGM on 26th April at Marist Clubrooms starting at 7pm.
