Winter Tournament

Winter Tournament

Otago University has offered to provide facilities for a Winter Tournament this year. In the past no combined Winter Tournament has been held. (The hockey tournament was always an individual club effort.) It was decided to draw up a constitution similar to that of the Easter Tournament. Tentatively it was suggested that the following sports be included: Men's and Women's Hockey, Men's Basketball, Fencing, Harriers, Skiing, Golf, Table Tennis, and a game between a representative NZU Rugby team and Otago Provincial team.

At this point Massey College brought up the question of independent Tournament status for that College. General opinion was against the idea as it would place great strain on the billeting facilities, involve the necessity of playing first year students, and because Massey could not field a complete set of first grade teams each year. At present Massey combines with VUC and it was suggested that better results may be obtained if there was closer cooperation in the matter of choosing Massey delegates to our teams.
