Tasman Childrens Interclub and National Competitions

Most Inter-club meets are held on a Sunday and generally begin at 10.00 am and are finished by 4.30 pm.

The Russell Cup, Winstone Cup, Cockeram Cup and Hester Shield are Inter-club Meetings attended by Nelson, Richmond, Motueka, Marlborough, and Takaka Clubs. The winning club at each competition is determined by the total points scored based on the placing of their athletes.

These competitions are a fantastic way for Children to develop new friendships, foster team spirit and represent the club while improving their personal bests.
