This club is one of the leading athletic clubs in the province and we have featured prominently in interclub meetings, and provincial championships for the past few seasons.

Our big event of the year is undoubtedly the athletic champs, at the Summer Tournament (Easter). Other events popular with club members is Christmas holiday trip to Wanganui and New Plymouth: a trip to Hastings late in March, and a meeting at Palmerston North (vs. Palmerston North and Massey College).

We are very lucky to have the services of a leading British athlete and coach (Mr. I. Boyd), who is assisted by Lloyd Clarke and Cam Murray (N.Z. badge holders). So if you are looking for a furtherance of your athletic career or thinking of beginning come along and join the club.

Women members are especially welcome and a section is provided for them at Tournament. Watch the notice boards for news of the interfaculty tournament (March 17th). Meanwhile come along to our club nights (Thursdays, 7.30 p.m., at Boyd-Wilson Field) and see for yourself.
