Sports Council's main roles are the administration and allocation of club grants and the organisation of sports exchanges and tournaments.
1981 Highlights:
Easter Tournament
This is the annual meeting of New Zealand Universities summer sports teams and this year it is being staged in Dunedin. Information detailing travel arrangements and subsidies is published in this Salient.
Winter Tournament
This year Victoria hosts the Winter Tournament here in Wellington. The organisation behind such an event is enormous, and Sports Council will be requiring a number of people to assist in its operation. Developments on tournament will be published regularly in Salient. So keep an eye out!
Australian Tour
The 1981 Sports Council has made a commitment to send a sports team from Victoria to Australia in September 1981 if at all possible. The trip is to Sydney to compete against Sydney, NSW, and MacQuarrie Universities in a variety of predominantly winter sports.
The team is hoped to comprise a number of sporting codes, but this is dependent upon the finances and the standards of each.
Representatives of Sports Council will be shortly contacting sports clubs to ascertain numbers for the team to Australia. A schedule of costs and tour itinerary will be made available to each Club Captain this week. If there are any enquiries, please contact the Club Captain or the Sports Council Liaison Officer of the particular sport.
