Last week, a large number of our rangatahi were out across the country representing ลTC in their respective sports. While there were some fantastic results to celebrate, what stood out most was the way our students represented themselves, their teammates, their whฤnau and our kura.
Across the week, our students competed with pride, humility and dignity. Win or lose, they put themselves out there, competed hard, supported one another and created memories that will stay with them well beyond their time at ลTC.
Winter Tournament Week โ A week where our student-athletes excelled!
Some fantastic highlights from the week:
1st XI Boys Hockey โ Founders Cup Champions
Qualifying for the Rankin Cup in 2027 โ the first time in ลTC history!
Prem 1 Netball โ Division C Runners-Up
Achieving their goal of promotion to Division B
U18 Rugby โ Hawkeโs Bay 10-a-side Runners-Up
2nd XI Girls Hockey โ Mary Clinton Cup, 3rd Place
These are some brilliant achievements, but the success of Tournament Week goes well beyond placings and trophies. Every one of our students who stepped onto a court, field or turf wearing the ลTC colours contributed to a week we can be incredibly proud of.
A huge thank you also needs to go to our coaches, managers, TiCs and staff who travelled with and supported our teams. Tournament Week asks a great deal of these people โ long days, early starts, travel, organisation and the responsibility of caring for our rangatahi away from home. None of these opportunities happen without them, and we are incredibly grateful for everything they give to ลTC Sport.
