Adventure Racing

Adventure Racing

Years 9-13 students 

Adventure Racing is a competitive sport option available to Year 9-13 students run through Terms 1-4. There are regular trainings and then students can opt in or out of each offered event or race that the school enters. These events include orienteering, rogaines, and adventure races all across the South Island and a few National events. 

In Term 2 our top senior athletes will attend the Hillary Challenge Qualifier, and if they qualify (or have already qualified) will travel north to compete in the National Event near Tongariro National Park in the Term 3 school holidays.

Our Y9/10 students will attend the Get 2 Go Regionals in Term 3 and then if they qualify will have the opportunity to compete at the National Final in December. 

Teacher in Charge: Mr Liebert 

Coach: Greg Jansen

Events

We will release an Adventure Racing Calendar at the start of the year. Please note that entry will depend on staff availability, student interest, and athlete ability. Events marked as ‘optional’ are not school-based entries – you may attend these individually, but not as part of a school team or with Middleton Grange listed as your school, unless you have written consent from the Sports Department. All 'school' events must be entered through the sports department
