Gymnastics
Stephanie Brown will step down as president of our gymnastics club at the end of the year. She has done a wonderful job of running gymnastics for the last eight years and we are greatly appreciative of the time and effort she has put into the club. Stephanie and her family members have covered most of the positions within the club – administration, equipment set up, coaching – so for the club to continue in 2016 we need help from gymnastics parents or people in the community. If you can help out in any capacity please phone Stephanie on 022 362 4998. 

Netball – OHS
The OHS netball club are holding a fun Mixed Netball Tournament on July 26 at our courts, as part of their fundraising to get their AIMS team to Tauranga in September. Just $80 per team, up to 12 players in a team, 10 years and older, at least two males on the court at any time. To enter a team, please contact Jodie Bennetto on 021 0266 3664.

The club is also running a School Holiday Netball Programme on Wednesday July 8 to help Otamatea Team 1 raise funds to go to the Upper North Island Secondary Schools (UNISS) Netball tournament. It costs $20 and runs from 10am–3pm. If you have a child who is keen to learn some netball skills, have fun and be active, please contact Nikola Kemp on 431 8762 quick!

Fast Five Netball
Who's keen to give Fast Five netball a go? I'm going to run a social, mixed module with games held in the KSA gymnasium on Sunday afternoons starting August 30. Only $100 team fee ($10 per player) and there will be prize money up for grabs! Men, women and kids welcome. A registration form is on the Kaiwaka Fast Five facebook page, or contact me and I will email it to you. This will be a fun, friendly module, so why not get a group of mates together and give it a try!

Athletics
Our athletics club is looking for 12 and 13-year-old boys and girls who may be interested in attending the National Inter-provincial meeting in Dunedin during Easter 2016. If interested, please contact Eileen Parsons on 021 142 0357.

Meet the Neighbours
Have you noticed the huge influx of people to our community recently? To make these new people feel welcome, KSA has decided to put on a Meet The Neighbours event. Guests will be shown through the Sports Complex and our 11 affiliated sports clubs will be present to showcase their clubs. But this isn't just for newbies, locals are welcome too. Pop along to the Sports Complex on Sunday August 2 from 2–4pm, afternoon tea will be provided.
