Wednesday July 19 2023 Selwyn Times Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz NEWS 17 Koru Games set to be biggest yet REGISTRATION for the Koru Games primary schools’ sports tournament has gone live, with record numbers anticipated for the September three-day event. The games is in its ninth year, with several changes planned. Organiser the Selwyn Sports Trust is hoping to break the 500-team entry mark for the first time and build on the atmosphere at each of the four sport hubs. Said sports trust general manager Doug McSweeney: “We are very excited about getting registrations live as we have been working on planning the games for several months. “We’ve introduced a new registration and draws system this year on the Sporty platform, which many schools are familiar with, and this will allow them to see an overview of all the sports they have entered.” Last year 74 schools from across the South Island entered just over 400 teams across 16 sports. With the addition of wheelchair basketball and cross country, a tweak to the venue hubs, and a new draws system, the capacity has increased to more than 500 teams. Just over 300 teams have already registered. “Traditional sports are very OPEN: Registration for the Koru Games primary schools’ sports tournament has gone live. PHOTOS: ANNA TURNER popular like netball, hockey, volleyball, touch, football, basketball and tennis. However, some new and emerging sports are really growing in popularity like boccia, kī-o-rahi, ultimate frisbee and korfball, so we are really thrilled because of the opportunity this gives schools to enter teams and grow participation,” said McSweeney. “The four hubs – two based in Lincoln, one in Prebbleton and one in Rolleston – are an important element in the success of the games. The atmosphere created by the teams and spectators is always so positive and energetic.” The games was started by the sports trust in 2014 with a focus on participation and enjoyment for year 7 and 8 pupils. Said McSweeney: “We acknowledge that competition is important, but we also place focus on playing within the spirit and enjoyment of the game. “This year we are introducing a new award called the John F Reid Memorial Award, which will acknowledge the team who demonstrates the true spirit of the games.” Reid was instrumental in the formation of the games, and the vision behind the sports trust family. Said McSweeney: “There are so many people from the Selwyn region, and wider Canterbury community, that give their time to ensure this event is run to the highest standard, and we simply couldn’t do it without them. We are so thankful for their contribution year after year”.
