Weather watch<br />
Waikato Regional Council<br />
is warning rain is likely to<br />
cause flooding of the Waipa<br />
River.<br />
The warning follows heavy<br />
rain since Sunday and it’s<br />
expected the rain could cause<br />
a once-in-20-year flood event.<br />
Flood plains around the<br />
Waipa and west coast<br />
waterways are expected to be<br />
saturated, while surface<br />
flooding in many areas is<br />
predicted.<br />
Farmers in those areas are<br />
urged to keep up to date on<br />
water levels and move stock to<br />
higher ground if necessary,<br />
while residents are advised<br />
that local roads could be<br />
affected by flooding and slips.<br />

IS IT YOU? Kihikihi Bookshop owners Young and Susie Yeo are waiting to see who won $5.5 million in Lotto and Powerball from a ticket they<br />
sold.<br />
BY DEAN TAYLOR<br />
There’s just one question on<br />
everyone’s mind this week — who<br />
has won the $5.5 million Powerball<br />
First Division prize with a ticket<br />
from Kihikihi Bookshop.<br />
The win is the biggest in the<br />
area since Lotto began and also<br />
takes Kihikihi Bookshop to the top<br />
of the major money stakes.<br />
It is also the first time in Lotto<br />
history that we have had a Lotto<br />
millionaire — previous winnings<br />
have all been under the one million<br />
dollar mark, or in one case was<br />
$1.38 million, but shared four ways.<br />
Bookshop owners Young and<br />
Susie Yeo were woken to the news<br />
on Sunday by New Zealand Herald<br />
reporter James Ihaka.<br />
The couple have owned the<br />
store just over two years, but as<br />
Kihikihi locals of 10 years are<br />
hoping it is one of their regulars<br />
who won.<br />
Mr Yeo says it is hard to<br />
imagine how much money $5.5<br />
million is.<br />
‘‘Hopefully it is going to someone<br />
who needs it and who will<br />
spend it wisely,’’ he says.<br />
Mrs Yeo says people coming in<br />
to the store are all asking the same<br />
question — has it been claimed yet.<br />
As of going to print the answer<br />
was no.<br />
NZ Lotteries confirm the prize<br />
has not been claimed — nor do they<br />
expect that to happen in Kihikihi.<br />
Communications advisor Victoria<br />
Barton-Chapple says people<br />
in smaller centres usually check<br />
their ticket out of town, or like last<br />
week’s winners, come to the Wellington<br />
headquarters.<br />
NZ Lotteries chief executive<br />
Wayne Pickup says last week a<br />
couple won $6.5 million, flew to<br />
Wellington and caught the bus to<br />
their office to collect their prize.<br />
The Kihikihi winner will be the<br />
sixth Powerball multi-millionaire<br />
to be created in <strong>2012</strong> — and the 95th<br />
Powerball winner since it was<br />
introduced in 2001.’’<br />
The Yeos say if it is a local<br />
winner it will be good reward for<br />
the loyalty of Kihikihi residents<br />
who shop in the village.<br />
Previously under their ownership<br />
the biggest win was a local<br />
woman who won a Mercedes Benz<br />
valued at over $100,000 in a<br />
Mother’s Day draw.<br />
Under previous owners there<br />
were three Lotto winners.<br />
Paper Plus <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> has<br />
had the most Lotto winners —<br />
eight since 1992, and Pak’N Save,<br />
Video Ezy and Lotto and Fresh<br />
Choice have all had one winner.<br />

No to Cambridge pool<br />
Setting up trusts to raise<br />
funds for pools is nothing new.<br />
That is how the <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong><br />
Events Centre funds were<br />
raised.<br />
Most people will remember<br />
when that was built the<br />
trustees did not raise nearly<br />
sufficient funds for it and the<br />
Council did not sell enough<br />
assets to fund it, so the balance<br />
of funds were raised by<br />
borrowing.<br />
Despite my many requests,<br />
then as a councillor and person<br />
responsible, I was never told<br />
how much extra borrowing<br />
there was or who authorised it.<br />
The trustees were simply<br />
thanked for their splendid job<br />
and the events centre was built<br />
and the debt became part of the<br />
pool of debt the WDC has.<br />
At the time I suggested a<br />
longer time frame so that those<br />
who were fundraising could<br />
meet their earlier promises.<br />
<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> had a town<br />
hall fund that was tipped in to<br />
the project. In reality the project<br />
was, and still is, a disaster<br />
but those that wanted a pool<br />
got one at the expense of others<br />
and a management company<br />
got a free job worth $200K per<br />
year, a free business.<br />
Now we have a situation<br />
where a minority in Cambridge<br />
want another pool and<br />
they have failed to meet their<br />
agreed fundraising target. The<br />
WDC have employed professional<br />
fund raisers to raise<br />
funds, however that produced<br />
a substantial loss of about<br />
$200K and I understand the<br />
WDC have spent about $2<br />
million on plans and dreams.<br />
Apparently they then voted<br />
to ‘can’ the whole<br />
thing due to lack of funds.<br />
Amazing that they finally<br />
found it in them to be brave.<br />
The pool proponents have<br />
however tried to come back<br />
with this trust malarkey.<br />
They, including the Cambridge<br />
councillors, seem to not<br />
understand what the word no<br />
means. It is sad that they have<br />
been let down.<br />
The rumour is that, if they<br />
supported the velodrome,<br />
those who wanted that would<br />
support them with money for a<br />
pool but it did not happen. A<br />
sort of gentlemen’s rip off.<br />
As the Council have voted<br />
against a pool in Cambridge,<br />
that should be the end of the<br />
matter.<br />
The Council CEO Mr Dyet<br />
now has no entitlement to put<br />
anything further on the<br />
agenda regarding a Cambridge<br />
pool until such time as the<br />
Cambridge people can firstly<br />
decide what they want and<br />
then show that they can raise<br />
the required funds.<br />
JAMES PARLANE<br />
GST has to be listed in quote by tradesmen<br />
In the ‘What’s Hot, What’s<br />
Not’ column last Thursday a<br />
correspondent complained<br />
about tradesmen who quote<br />
for a job but do not include<br />
GST.<br />
He or she should be aware<br />
that if a quote is received and<br />
makes no mention of GST,<br />
then that is all you are legally<br />
required to pay.<br />
To add it on later is a<br />
breach of the Fair Trading<br />
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR<br />
Act and quite illegal. If this<br />
happens, pay only the amount<br />
of the quote.<br />
If you have already paid it,<br />
claim it back from the tradesman<br />
and, if they refuse, take it<br />
to the Disputes Tribunal for a<br />
refund.<br />
They will have little patience<br />
with the tradesman.<br />
If you are asking for a<br />
quote, always get it in writing<br />
to save arguments later on the<br />
amount, and whether it was a<br />
firm quote or an estimate.<br />
This is from Consumer<br />
magazine’s website:<br />
‘If GST is not included in a<br />
quote or advertised price, this<br />
must be made clear. If it isn’t,<br />
you can argue that you should<br />
just pay the figure quoted.<br />
Companies which have<br />
advertised prices that do not<br />
include GST, and not made<br />
this clear, have been<br />

World gown glory for<br />
Arohena dressmaker<br />
BY DEAN TAYLOR<br />
When 16-year-old<br />
Aucklander Aleisha<br />
Robertson recently took<br />
out the Miss T.E.E.N. title<br />
in Houston, <strong>Te</strong>xas, no one<br />
was more excited than<br />
Arohena’s Judy Board.<br />
Mrs Board is not only<br />
director of judges for<br />
Pageants of New Zealand,<br />
but she had made the evening<br />
gown Aleisha wore in<br />
the final from material purchased<br />
in <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> —<br />
and that gown was also a<br />
winner.<br />
Aleisha is the current<br />
Miss <strong>Te</strong>en New Zealand,<br />
and by winning the Photogenic,<br />
Evening Gown and<br />
overall Miss T.E.E.N. title<br />
picked up prizes including<br />
a $5000 Crown Couture,<br />
hair products, cosmetics,<br />
shoes, jewellery, website<br />
promotions, media training<br />
and a Barclay College<br />
scholarship . . . and lots<br />
more.<br />
It also means Mrs Board<br />
is the first New Zealander<br />
to win an Evening Gown<br />
title at an international<br />
pageant according to<br />
Pageants of New Zealand<br />
founder Dianne Foley.<br />
Mrs Board says she has<br />
always been a dressmaker,<br />
learning as a child from<br />
her mother.<br />
She says her parents<br />
were conservative, so if she<br />
wanted something fashionable<br />
she had to make it<br />
herself.<br />
Her pocket money<br />
always went on fabric.<br />
In her adult life she<br />
sewed for herself and her<br />
family.<br />
She says it has changed<br />
so much now — clothes are<br />
cheap and then they get<br />
thrown out.<br />
Mrs Board has been in<br />
Arohena seven years and<br />
owns JAK Farms which is<br />
run run by her son-in-law<br />
and daughter, Alan and<br />
TC<strong>17</strong><strong>07</strong>12DT01<br />
DRESSMAKER Judy Board made the gown which Miss T.E.E.N. Aleisha Robertson<br />
(bottom of page) wore in the final of the international event. She is pictured with the<br />
jacket she is now making for Pageants of New Zealand founder Dianne Foley.<br />
Karina Belfield.<br />
She got involved in<br />
pageants not though her<br />
interest in fashion, but<br />
through sport.<br />
Mrs Board has played<br />
representative hockey for<br />
years and is a member of<br />
the New Zealand masters<br />
team.<br />
Mrs Foley is also a<br />
representative player of<br />
longstanding, and the pair<br />
met and became friends at<br />
masters level.<br />
Both are guest members<br />
of the NSW/Victoria masters<br />
team that will play in<br />
the PanPacs and then<br />
World Masters Games in<br />
Turin.<br />
Mrs Board became<br />
involved in the pageants<br />
and is now director of<br />
judges.<br />
She says it is great for<br />
the girls, and a far cry from<br />
the beauty pageants of old.<br />
She believes they are<br />
good for the confidence and<br />
future careers of the girls<br />
who enter and she loves<br />
being involved.<br />
When Mrs Foley also<br />
found out her friend was a<br />
dressmaker she was<br />
‘‘told’’ she would be making<br />
the evening gown for<br />
Miss <strong>Te</strong>en New Zealand.<br />
Mrs Board had a piece<br />
of material she had purchased<br />
for a jacket for<br />
herself from Stichin’ Stuff<br />
that she immediately<br />
thought would be perfect.<br />
She asked owner<br />
<strong>Te</strong>resa Reymer if she<br />
could get more, and she<br />
obliged.<br />
Mrs Board had definite<br />
ideas about the dress,<br />
which she designed and<br />
made.<br />
The fabric is a maroon<br />
and pewter stretch with<br />
black lace overlay.<br />
It changes in the light<br />
and hangs beautifully.<br />
Mrs Board says too<br />
many dresses are made<br />
from fabrics that are too<br />
figure hugging, and show<br />
every strap and bump.<br />
‘‘Aleisha is quite a<br />
modest girl, this material<br />
hugs her figure without<br />
showing too much,’’ says<br />
Mrs Board.<br />
She designed a fish tail<br />
train to make it flow, but<br />
that would be easy to walk<br />
in and wouldn’t need to be<br />
lifted to negotiate stairs.<br />
A built-in bra and fitted<br />
bone sides hold everything<br />
in place.<br />
The thoughtfulness<br />
obviously paid off as it<br />
was reported Aleisha<br />
looked stunning.<br />
Mrs Board has already<br />
had requests from a few<br />
girls in the know to design<br />
and make ball gowns and<br />
graduation dresses, but at<br />
present is putting the<br />
finishing touches to<br />
another special creation.<br />
She is making a jacket<br />
for her friend Dianne to<br />
wear to a Nutrimetics conference<br />
overseas.<br />

small tables where<br />
meals can be eaten on<br />
the premises.<br />
Donburi consists of a<br />

Chance to challenge yourself<br />
BY CATHY ASPLIN<br />
<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> Volunteer Fire Brigade’s first<br />
Firefighter Challenge held in April was so successful<br />
that another is being staged later this month.<br />
Spokesperson Chris Bestwick says planning is well<br />
underway.<br />
‘‘We have over 40 firefighters, both volunteer and<br />
paid, from around the Waikato, Bay of Plenty and<br />
Auckland areas who have entered. <strong>Te</strong>n from our own<br />
brigade will be competing — including our Chief Fire<br />
Officer Ian Campbell.’’<br />
The challenge on July 28 will kick off at 9am and<br />
finish around 4pm.<br />
‘‘The day begins with individual runs, then tandem<br />
and team events. The finals will be staged in the<br />
afternoon.<br />
‘‘The event is a chance for us to show people what<br />
else we do in the Fire Service — as they probably only<br />
see us racing up and down the main street attending<br />
incidents.<br />
‘‘For <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> firefighters it is a great chance to<br />
pit our skills against others and the clock.’’<br />
The <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> Firefighter Challenge requires<br />
entrants to wear full firefighting gear while they<br />
complete a set list of tasks.<br />
These include climbing a tower carrying a hose,<br />
hoisting a coil three storeys, driving a beam with a shot<br />
hammer, using a hose to knock down a disk and<br />
dragging a dummy backwards for the last 30m.<br />
<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> firefighter Hamish Doohan tried the<br />
challenge for the first time in April and says it a was a<br />
great experience.<br />
He already had a high level of fitness in readiness for<br />
the Sky City Firefighter Challenge (which he competed<br />
in a impressive time of 11 minutes) so it was a matter of<br />
training on the course.<br />
‘‘We trained for several Sundays before the event<br />
which helped me get used to the demands of the event.<br />
‘‘I took part in the individual, tandem, team and<br />
relay events during the day.<br />
‘‘It was good fun, but those last few metres dragging<br />
the dummy are probably the toughest, I was knackered<br />
at that stage.’’<br />
While he won’t be here to compete in the challenge<br />
on July 28, he plans to compete in an event later in the<br />
year.<br />
‘‘This course is very similar to the Firefighter<br />
Combat Challenge, so it’s a great way to test yourself. I<br />
encourage others to give it a go.’’<br />
■ <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> Firefighter Challenge begins at 9am on<br />
Saturday, July 28. Best viewing from carpark behind public<br />
library (entrance off Redoubt Street).<br />

Waipa district plan unveiled<br />
CKL concerned at level of Council control<br />
CKL commends Waipa District<br />
Council staff on the new<br />
proposed District Plan which sets<br />
out the rules by which any<br />
development within the Waipa<br />
District must abide over the next<br />
10 years.<br />
With origins dating back at<br />
least 50 years in the region, CKL<br />
Planning, Surveying, Engineering<br />
is, however, concerned at the<br />
level of controls and the amount<br />
of restrictions the council is<br />
proposing to introduce for any<br />
form of land use or development.<br />
The challenges facing all district<br />
plan reviews throughout<br />
New Zealand has brought a new<br />
awareness of the need to protect<br />
quality soils for their best utilisation<br />
— in the Waipa and Waikato<br />
that is of course dairying.<br />
CKL endorses this philosophy in<br />
principal; however, the company<br />
is concerned that the proposed<br />
changes to the rules will<br />
ultimately restrict growth in the<br />
district.<br />
Experience shows us that<br />
more red tape, more controls and<br />
more restrictions tend to bring<br />
associated higher time input and<br />
therefore higher costs. CKL<br />
already are finding that land<br />
owners are shying away because<br />
the economics of a project just<br />
don’t ‘stack up’.<br />
Two rural subdivision rules<br />
that Waipa District Council currently<br />
have, which are destined<br />
to be removed, are the ‘Long<br />
Association Holding’(LAH) rule<br />
and the ‘Surplus Dwelling’ rule.<br />
Council maintain that these<br />
smaller lot rural subdivisions<br />
have led to ‘ribbon development’<br />
and fragmentation and cite the<br />
Kaipaki district as being an<br />
example of this.<br />
Kay Carter<br />
Branch Manager<br />
Associate<br />
Jonathan Gwyn<br />
CKL Survey<br />
Manager<br />
CKL disagrees. Kaipaki is an<br />
example of a vibrant district with<br />
diversification of land use into<br />
blueberries, nurseries, horse<br />
studs/agistment, cafes and hot<br />
houses, being just some of the<br />
activities bringing character and<br />
opportunity to the district for<br />
greater employment and revenue<br />
from other sources.<br />
The LAH rule allows for someone<br />
who has owned and worked<br />
on their land for at least 15 years,<br />
to subdivide out a lot around<br />
their existing dwelling or a small<br />
piece of bare land no greater than<br />
5000m 2 on which to build a new<br />
home for themselves. This<br />
enables retirement on the family<br />
holding, but with title separate to<br />
that of the farm. There is also has<br />
a social benefit to the farming<br />
community in that retiring<br />
farmers are able to stay in the<br />
district and provide their<br />
ongoing wisdom and support to<br />
the family farm and surrounds.<br />
Statistics apparently reveal that<br />
50 per cent of these LAH titles are<br />
onsold and the assumption<br />
follows that the farmer has<br />
‘milked the system’, creating the<br />
title for capital gain. However,<br />
the stats probably do not analyse<br />
who bought the title.<br />
The social ‘association with<br />
the district’ aspect is a consideration<br />
which seems to have been<br />
overlooked with the proposed<br />
removal of this rule.<br />
The Surplus Dwelling rule<br />
allows subdivision into a separate<br />
title of a farm house or cottage<br />
that, perhaps because of<br />
advances in technology, is no<br />
longer required for the extra<br />
farm worker. This rule does<br />
allow the farmer to sell off that<br />
surplus asset and generate some<br />

capital to plough back into the<br />
farm. Of course it also provides<br />
for a ‘lifestyler’ to live in and<br />
enjoy a rural environment.<br />
The Urban Subdivision rules<br />
are being altered under the guise<br />
of ‘protecting the rural nature’ of<br />
our town. CKL recalls that Council<br />
had that same philosophy at<br />
the last review ten years ago and<br />
believe the current rules have<br />
been working well in this regard.<br />
Council now propose to put<br />
the average size of sections in<br />
town up from a 400m 2 minimum<br />
to 500m, 2 whilst also introducing<br />
an average of 600m 2 for three or<br />
more lots and a maximum size of<br />
800m 2 , net of any access.<br />
These rules will inhibit infill<br />
housing as there are few sections<br />
available in <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> of a size<br />
to meet the area criteria. This<br />
criteria seems incongruent when<br />
we have a large demographic of<br />
aging population who will no<br />
doubt create a demand for<br />
smaller sections and town house<br />
living in the near future.<br />
Council has gone some way to<br />
addressing the future need for<br />
housing by introducing some<br />
areas of town to be designated for<br />
high density dwelling, which is<br />
applaudable. The challenge here<br />
for Council is to choose areas<br />
which take into account land<br />
stability, vehicular access, distance<br />
from town , availability of<br />
services reticulation and land<br />
which is fit for purpose.<br />
The proposed increase of the<br />
average size of an urban section<br />
restricts the possibility of fully<br />
utilising the land now within the<br />
town boundaries. This puts the<br />
onus for the future growth of <strong>Te</strong><br />
<strong>Awamutu</strong> squarely on the shoulders<br />
of three to four private<br />

developers seem currently not<br />

Whilst CKL appreciates the<br />
huge amount of planning and<br />
forethought that has gone into<br />
the creation of the proposed<br />
District Plan, they are concerned<br />
that the growth of <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong><br />
will not be as Council forecast if<br />
all the proposed new rules are<br />
implemented. The bottom line is<br />
that any predictions and budgets<br />
based on revenue to Council<br />
provided by on-going development<br />
in the district may fall well<br />
short if restrictive rules introduced<br />
are growth retardant and<br />
if no-one can afford to do it.<br />

She’s out on the country<br />

with my back and some other<br />
setbacks in life, I decided to<br />
take matters into my own<br />
hands by walking an hour a<br />
day.<br />
‘‘It began as a way to keep<br />
fit and eventually I started<br />
building up the kilometres.<br />
‘‘A friend encouraged me<br />
to join her in the 12km Hamilton<br />
Lake fun walk last year<br />
and I really enjoyed it.<br />
‘‘So I extended myself<br />
again and my next event was<br />
the Ellerslie Racecourse 21km<br />

‘‘Earlier this year I<br />
completed the ‘big one’ — the<br />

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR<br />
Electioneering seems to have begun<br />
Pat Bishop’s letter ‘Answer Sought on<br />
Amalgamation Stance’ of July 10 would<br />
seem to indicate that electioneering is<br />
already underway for the council elections<br />
in just over a year.<br />
Firstly, Cr Wilson’s notice of motion to<br />
discuss amalgamation of councils was not<br />
accepted by the committee chairman as per<br />
appropriate meeting procedures. That<br />
decision had nothing to do with the poor<br />
wording of the motion or the sending of<br />
‘‘wrong messages’’, but was entirely on the<br />
basis of standing orders.<br />
Secondly, Mr Bishop seems to infer that<br />
I’m doing some deal with other councils<br />
without the knowledge of my Waipa council.<br />
This is totally incorrect.<br />
For the record, I don’t support amalgamation<br />
for Waipa District. Why would I<br />
when Waipa is the best district in New<br />
Zealand? While Waipa is the Home of<br />
Champions, it is also a Champion Home. As<br />
well, Janet and I have given our total<br />
commitment to our district over the past <strong>17</strong><br />
years and I don’t see why others should cash<br />
in on the special Waipa that has been built.<br />
But, having said that, you can’t keep your<br />
head in the sand as Messrs Bishop and<br />
Wilson would want. Refer back to 1989 and<br />
<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> and Cambridge Boroughs and<br />
Waipa County were all doing a good job. But<br />
the Local Government Commission determined<br />
that there should be amalgamation<br />
nationwide and from that evolved Waipa<br />
District.<br />
With the current review of local government<br />
there is a strong likelihood that the<br />
Local Government Commission will again<br />
be given strong powers to carry out amalgamations.<br />
Therefore, Waipa has to keep an<br />

open mind and ensure that if there is any<br />
change forced it is on our terms rather than<br />
us being dictated to.<br />
In the meantime the Waikato Mayoral<br />
Forum, which CE Garry Dyet also attends,<br />
is working towards Waikato councils operating<br />
more cost effectively by collaborating<br />
and investigating the sharing of services<br />
including roading, planning, water and<br />
waste water.<br />
Integral to this it has been agreed by all<br />
mayors that discussions of amalgamation<br />
are not on the agenda.<br />
Importantly, no commitment will be<br />
made by me as mayor. All shared services<br />
are being investigated by the mayors and<br />
their CEs but, democratically, any decisions<br />
will be made by each and every council.<br />
ALAN LIVINGSTON<br />
Waipa District mayor<br />
Threat to democracy<br />
Pat Bishop, in his recent Courier letter,<br />
asks WDC Mayor, Mr Livingston, his stance<br />
on the amalgamation issue. The word<br />
amalgamation rings alarm bells.<br />
Because we are living under capitalism<br />
words as: amalgamation, biggest, mega,<br />
greatest and super etc are popular. For<br />
under capitalism, property is concentrated<br />
in the hands of the few.<br />
Likewise, ruling groups such as local<br />
body councils amalgamate with other<br />
councils, giving power to the hands of the<br />
few.<br />
The abolition of property is the beginning<br />
of slavery. Capitalism concentrates<br />
property, and power, in the hands of the few.<br />
Communism confiscates it all under the<br />
name of — the collectivity. All of these<br />
smack at democracy.<br />
It is time that we all, especially those in<br />
authority, remembered history for we can<br />
learn valuable lessons from it and hopefully,<br />
avoid mistakes of the past.<br />
In view of the above I am interested to<br />
know what our mayor and what others have<br />
to say on the current amalgamation issue.<br />

Kids gain sports<br />
skills in holidays<br />
Children flocked to <strong>Te</strong><br />
<strong>Awamutu</strong>’s KiwiSport Holiday Programme<br />
based at the Events Centre<br />
over the July school holidays.<br />
Sports featured included badminton,<br />
netball, squash, martial arts and<br />
cricket, along with Energize Games.<br />
Each sport was run by a<br />
KiwiSport officer who provided<br />
coaching and an opportunity for the<br />
children to learn about each of the<br />
sports with a practical element<br />
included.<br />
The intention was for children to<br />
gain new skills and experience a new<br />
sport as a potential option for the<br />
future.<br />
A bonus for children attending<br />
was to participate in a netball module<br />
run by KiwiSport Netball officer<br />
Rachel Beale, while also observing a<br />
Waikato Bay of Plenty Magic netball<br />
squad training session.<br />
‘‘It is hoped that this opportunity<br />
may trigger interest and inspire<br />
young people to take up or continue<br />
to play the sport of netball,’’ says<br />
Waipa District sports co-ordinator<br />
Jude Till.<br />
The programme catered to 5- to<br />
12-year-olds, with approximately 80<br />
children attending daily.<br />
Sport Waikato <strong>Te</strong>am Energize’s<br />
Anton Barr, Garth Thomas and<br />
Tracey Fleming provided lots of<br />
games and activities as an extra<br />
option due to the large numbers of<br />
children attending.<br />
In preparation for the holiday<br />
programme and other voluntary<br />
opportunities, local young leaders<br />
from the Waipa district were offered<br />
the opportunity to attend a<br />
KiwiSport leadership training day<br />
in association with the Waikato<br />
Institute for Leisure and Sport<br />
Studies (WILSS) held at the Kaipaki<br />
Hall and Sports Centre.<br />
The programme is designed to<br />
help young leaders to gain experience,<br />
develop confidence and learn<br />
and build on their practical leadership<br />
skills to be used for future<br />
involvement working with groups of<br />
young people in their communities.<br />
‘‘This is exactly the links we<br />
would like to see being made<br />
between a range of stakeholders and<br />
the provision of opportunities for<br />
our local young people,’’ says Till.<br />

Ariana inspired by Ferns star<br />
BY COLIN THORSEN<br />
Rising <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> netball star Ariana Cable-Dixon<br />
is keen to follow in the footsteps of her idol Laura<br />
Langman.<br />
The 18-year-old wing-attack/centre has set her sights<br />
on making the New Zealand team to contest the World<br />
Youth Netball Championships in Glasgow in August,<br />
2013.<br />
Cable-Dixon says she takes heart from the fact that<br />
Langman captained the triumphant New Zealand U21<br />
side at the 2005 World Youth Championships in Fort<br />
Lauderdale, Florida.<br />
That same year Langman made her international test<br />
debut as a 19-year-old for the Silver Ferns against<br />
England.<br />
‘‘Laura’s inspirational,’’ says Cable-Dixon. ‘‘She’s a<br />
country girl from <strong>Te</strong> Pahu, showing everyone that you<br />
don’t have to be from the ‘big smoke’ to make your mark<br />
as a netballer at the highest level.<br />
‘‘It gives us girls from the country hope that, with a<br />
lot of hard work, we can make it into the national<br />
teams.’’<br />
Cable-Dixon was one of the star members of the<br />
Waikato under-19 team, crowned <strong>2012</strong> champions at the<br />
recent New Zealand Age Grade Championships in<br />
Auckland.<br />
Wintec Waikato accounted for North 36-28 in the final<br />
to secure the national title.<br />
They won a thrilling semifinal encounter against<br />
Auckland 1 33-32.<br />
Waikato’s three standout players, Cable-Dixon,<br />
Tamsin Moala and Allysha Taurima, were all named in<br />
the U19 tournament team.<br />
Cable-Dixon was rested on the first day of the<br />
tournament after rolling her ankle playing for Allied in<br />
the Hamilton premier club competition. She played in all<br />
six remaining games (two each day), including the<br />
semifinal and final, impressing all and sundry.<br />
New Zealand U21 coach, Janine Southby told Cable-<br />
Dixon that she liked what she saw of her at the nationals.<br />
‘‘I couldn’t believe it when I was approached by the<br />
Southern Steel co-coach, saying she wants to see more of<br />
me in action.’’<br />
Southby invited her to participate in the NZU21 trials<br />
at the weekend in North Shore.<br />
She can’t be selected for the NZU21 team to play<br />
Australia in Melbourne next month because she’s too<br />
young, but her chances of selection to go to Glasgow next<br />
year appear bright.<br />
Magic assistant coach, Rebecca Cabel has also invited<br />
the promising <strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> mid-courter to trial for the<br />
Trust Waikato team she coaches.<br />

Junior rugby players impress Foster<br />
BY COLIN THORSEN<br />
It’s not every day that <strong>Te</strong><br />
<strong>Awamutu</strong> rugby players get to<br />
rub shoulders with All Blacks<br />
and Waikato ITM Cup coaches.<br />
All Blacks assistant coach Ian<br />
Foster and Waikato coach Chris<br />
Gibbes ran coaching clinics at <strong>Te</strong><br />
<strong>Awamutu</strong> College, organised by<br />
<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong><br />
Rugby coordinator<br />
Deon Muir<br />
during the<br />
school<br />
holidays.<br />
Foster was<br />
most<br />
impressed<br />
with the skill<br />
set of the<br />
players who<br />
participated.<br />
The former<br />
Ian Foster<br />
<strong>Te</strong> <strong>Awamutu</strong> Sports, Waikato<br />
and Chiefs player/coach told the<br />
College coaches and players that<br />
the last time he had visited, the<br />
school was struggling to field<br />
one team, now there are six up<br />
and running.<br />
‘‘You’ve got some excellent<br />
coaches here all wanting to help<br />
you, make the most of it by<br />
listening to what they’ve got to<br />
say,’’ he told the players.<br />
Foster worked with the backs,<br />
focussing on encouraging them<br />
to become good at the skills that<br />
make moves work — enabling<br />
them to catch and pass under all<br />
sorts of situations.<br />
He covered the likes of<br />
creation and exploitation of<br />
space, vision, handling and<br />
decision making, passing skills,<br />
as well as core skills in team<br />
play, including runner calls.<br />
Gibbes took the forwards,<br />
assisted by Waikato rugby<br />
development officer Alf Daniels.<br />
The pair worked primarily on<br />

impressed’ with the way the<br />
players picked up on everything<br />
so quickly. ‘‘There attitude was<br />
outstanding.’’<br />
Gibbes has been overseas for<br />
the past six months working<br />

end of the NPC. He will then<br />

vector Arena on Saturday,<br />
August 4 for a much anticipated<br />
one off show and we<br />
are giving you the chance to<br />
win a copy of their latest<br />
album Oceania to help celebrate<br />
the occasion.<br />
It’s a fine body of work<br />
and you only need to tap into<br />

see that Billy is back to his<br />
brilliant best — it’s a ripper<br />
of a rock song and will have<br />
you amping and pumped and<br />
ready for the upcoming<br />
show.<br />
Other standout tracks<br />
that have been turning heads<br />
at recent shows include<br />
Quasar, Panopticon, Oceania,<br />
The Celestials, Pinwheels and<br />
Pale Horse.<br />
For this special headline<br />
performance, The Smashing<br />
Pumpkins will be debuting a<br />
unique stage design in New<br />
Zealand created to reflect the<br />
visual themes to go along<br />
with the full presentation of<br />
the new album, as well as<br />
playing plenty of classic<br />
Pumpkins catalogue.<br />
The pivotal group’s many<br />
hits such as Today, Bullet<br />
With Butterfly Wings, 1979,<br />
Zero, Tonight, Tonight, Ava<br />
Adore, Siamese Dream,<br />
Mellon Collie And The Infinite<br />

good number of them will be<br />
heard at the show.<br />
