From time to time club athletes will travel as an organised group with club coaches. This is a choice some athletes and families make. Club coaches organise such groups for the annual Colgate Games, College Games, and National Championships and other notable meets if held outside Christchurch. Parents looking to budget for such trips will need to put aside between $80-$120 a night typically. This will include all transport (excluding airfares or ferry costs if a meet is in the North Island), meals and accommodation. Costs vary depending on the cost of accommodation and the number of people travelling as part of the group (the larger the numbers the lower the cost per head). The following travel policy applies:

1) All athletes travelling as part of a club-organised trip will behave according to the Athletes Code of Conduct at all times, and wear their club uniform at all times when competing for and repersenting the club.

2) All monies collected for food, accommodation and travel will be due no later than ONE MONTH prior to departure IN FULL. Failure to pay in full by this date will result in the return of any part payment already made by said athlete and the assumption the vacant seat/bed on that sports trip is no longer required.

3) Any alternative financial arrangements for club trips must be made with the Club President and those arrangements confirmed in writing by the Club President.
