Grading Guide: For team registration purposes we have produced a grading guide to assist with the initial grading of your teams for registering. Please register teams with a grade that as near as practicable matches the team's capabilities. The grading games for Kiwi Sticks will then be more relevant & the final grading of your team more suited to their ability. For the grading guide Click here
