SATURDAY was the Athletics Waikato BOP Children’s RELAY Champs
• Jessie was the only HAWLS boy and his combined relay team with Hinemoa and Tokoroa won their 4 x 100m relay
• Our girls team of Sophie, Katherine, Georgie-Rose and Rachel were GOLD all the way in their 4 x 100. Their time of 52,61 would have had them on the podium at last year’s NZSS championships in the Junior girls relay.
• Great to see so many clubs represented with Fairfield featuring and great performances from Tauranga, Rotorua, Te Awamutu and many more.
• Well done to our young HAWKS sprinters and Charles who was the STARTER on the day.
