Secondary Schools sports awards celebrate 25 years

 

With a record 340 nominations, 163 individuals and three teams have been named as finalists at the 2016 ASB Northland Secondary Schools Sports Awards, a total of 21 schools represented from Kaitaia to Wellsford.

The regional annual awards acknowledge outstanding student sporting achievements in recognised secondary school sport, like golf and rowing as well as achievements in sporting codes not offered at a secondary school level, like boxing and pistol shooting – a total of 43 sporting codes.

Major awards from code winners deemed to have the highest sporting achievement in a sport not offered at secondary school level will be eligible for ASB Excellence Awards, male and female. 

The ASB Sportsman of the Year and Sportswoman of the Year will be named from all code winners in recognised Secondary School sport. 

There is also an award for Team of the Year.

Sport Northland’s Regional Sports Director, Robyn Richards has been overwhelmed with the support from schools, parents and coaches for the annual event. 

“Every year we seem to sneak in more nominations than the year before. We are delighted our secondary school students are making sure their achievements are being noted. Good on them for that!” Richards says.

This year will be a particularly special event as the ASB Northland Secondary Schools Sports Awards celebrates its own milestone of recognising and awarding local talent for 25 years. 

Local nominations this year include:
  • Ÿ RODNEY COLLEGE: Georgia Brierly, Sapphire Norburn Cormack (Athletics), Tarrin Rous (Golf), Brennan Massey (Parafed), Joseph Critchfield (Surfing). 
  •  
  • Ÿ OTAMATEA HIGH SCHOOL: Danyon Tana (Basketball), Tyler Porteous (Equestrian), Joshua Nishitani-Hart (Football), Shuntel Rika (Netball), Annmarie Holst (Squash).
  •  
  • Ÿ BREAM BAY COLLEGE: Thalia Heiwari (Highland Dancing), Thomas Norton (Surfing), Paul Linton (Swimming).

The 2016 ASB Northland Secondary Schools Sports Awards will take place in the ASB Stadium on Thursday October 27.
