Changes in our 2026 tournaments
The growth in our tournaments and with the NZF WOF 2.0, this has meant that we have needed to restructure how we run our tournaments. Rather than running boys' and girls' tournaments on separate dates (with one large and one smaller tournament), this year will see girls and boys competing on the same day, with a split in the grades across two dates. In addition with a number of developments at ground we need to work within our space and TCC confines.
