Removal of qualifying competition requirement

The NEC has voted to remove the “qualifying competition” requirement from our National Championships qualifying criteria. Members will no longer be required to compete at a provincial or North/South Island competition to qualify for Nationals. The requirement to reach the qualifying total remains but this can now be completed at any sanctioned competition within 12 months of Nationals when registered as a full member.

This decision was made to ease the burden on local committees of running oversubscribed provincial and island events and provide members with greater opportunities to qualify for Nationals, should that be their goal.

Establishment of Māori and Pasifika committee

We are looking to establish a committee for Māori and Pasifika to come together to voice their ideas, thoughts and concerns and elect one representative from that committee to join the NEC.

If you are interested in being part of this committee or wish to nominate someone to be part of it please email [email protected] by October 22nd

Please check your notice before sending. The notice will be sent as a push notification to subscribers of your app, and as an email to notice subscribers. Click Send to send immediately, or click Schedule to schedule for sending at a later time or date.
