Winter Tournament Week (during Term 3)
Each year we aim to have 2 competitive teams travel to a Winter Tournament. This is reviewed on an annual basis, and in 2022 will be:
- 1st XI – Rankin Cup — Tauranga
- 2nd XI – Galletly Cup — Cromwell
All WC sports team travel is self-funding however this should not deter any player from trialling. If you have any financial concerns please see Dave Keat, Director of Sport.
