e banning of freedom campers in Nelson will have a positive economic spin-off for Richmond says manager of the region’s largest shopping com- plex. Richmond Mall manager Da- vid Hill says he doesn’t agree with a recently-passed Nelson City Council by-law that pro- hibits vehicles to camp over- night on council land “but out of every cloud there is a huge silver lining for some- one and in this case that is Rich- mond Mall”. Nelson City Council is instead encouraging freedom campers to use a new low cost option at its Maitai Valley Motor Camp to help frugal tourists sleep on the cheap.

One of Nelson’s most famous sportspeople is facing the tough-est challenge of his life, battling an extremely rare and aggressive can-cer that has filled his vital organs with multiple tumours. But now his home town is joining the fight. Jason Richards is a household name across Australia and New

Zealand, performing at the top level of his sport for more than a decade. He won three NZ Touring Car Championships and has fin-ished runner up at Bathurst three times, lifting him to superstar sta-tus in the V8 Supercar world. But it is Nelson he calls home. Jason grew up in Richmond and attended Waimea College and learned his trade on the Kartsport

Nelson track, a track so dear to his heart he often visits it when he comes home. The father of two young daugh-ters is a fan favourite, known for his trademark smile and unques-tioned talent. But last year his fans through Australasia and especially in Nelson were shocked with news

David says the mall promotes the service through the Motor Caravan Association and through tourism radio. “They can come and park here for free and use our toilets and facilities as long as they are gone by nine in the morning.”In the summer months around 20 to 30 vans fill the mall car park each night with that figure drop-ping off to around five or six in the middle of win-ter. But with freedom camping now not allowed in Nelson, David is expecting a boom. “I’m surprised the Nelson council has got this policy, I just see so many benefits from them [freedom campers]. When I read in the Nelson Weekly that the bylaw was coming in I thought it would be a crying shame if people didn’t know that we have this resource out here. It is currently being utilised but we do have more space so we are happy for more people to come out and use it.”NZMCA Nelson/Tasman chairperson Henry Clark says the new by-law is the “best thing out” and that “the law should be quite clear. Everything should be self-contained”.

Henry says he was aware that the Richmond Mall allowed self-contained motor homes to stay overnight but not free-dom campers. “They’re disgraceful quite frankly. But if they offer the park-ing area for them to park overnight then there’s no problem.”

• Two community facilities opened their doors earlier this week and both look set to see plenty of locals in the future. The CLM fitness centre opened on Monday, while the dental clinic at Henley School was officially opened yesterday.

• An accident at the intersection of Golden Hills Rd and Waimea West Rd on Sunday has killed Foxhill resident Richard Nicholas John MacKay, 39. He and the driver, who was in a critical condition as the paper went to print, collided with a truck at the intersection after the car failed to give way. The driver of the truck was unharmed.

No purchase necessary.he had cancer. Not just any cancer though, rapidly growing tumours have been discovered forming in his lungs, it’s so rare around one in a million have the disease. In Australia various fundrais-ing efforts are under way to make sure cost isn’t a problem for Jason in his battle and just last week a fundraising day in Melbourne raised $85,000 for the man they call “JR”.Now it’s Nelson’s turn. Jason’s child-hood friend Tony Dyer, along with mates Brendan Gridley and Nick Fowler have organised a fundraiser here in Nelson. They will host an epic 200 lap race around Pro Karts and have already received gear to auction off, including a signed Greg Murphy jacket, signed Josh Coppins gear and a signed t-shirt by New Zealand’s top stock car driver, Dale Ewers. They hope to raise $5000 from the day, which will include a spectators area where several racing cars will be on display, a sausage sizzle and other attractions. Tony says it is the least they could do.“I’ve been mates with Jace since we were six and you couldn’t come across a nicer, more genuine bloke. I went over to Melbourne for his 35th birthday recently and everybody just loves him.

It is not fair that a guy like Jace is going through this. But he is an inspiration the way he is deal-ing with it.”Jason and his parents, who still live in Nelson, are supportive of the fundraiser says Tony.“Nelson is Jason’s hometown and while people are doing things in Australia to help him pay for the best treatment, I thought we should really be

doing something. He is one of us.”In a recent interview Jason said the prognosis for his recovery is poor. “It’s not looking that good after I got knocked off the previous trial with massive growth in my lungs. It’s not shaping up anywhere near the way I’d like it,” he told Speedcafe.com. “The ironic thing is that I feel good and look so good – everyone is sur-prised – but the tumours are still growing flat out inside me.” Jason says that it will be four weeks before he knows if the new drug trial

will be successful. Otherwise, he’ll go in for more chemotherapy soon. To donate or enter a team in the Race4Jace email [email protected]. The entire entry fee will go directly to Jason’s fight against cancer. The guys have also set up a Facebook page and say anyone keen to help Jason should also check out www.bid4jase.com.

Liquid gold makes for great fertiliser and a fun fundraiser A group of St Pauls School children have come up with an inno-vative way to fundraise.By keeping worms in a compost bin outside their classroom, the students have been able to collect what they’re calling Liquid Gold.The product is essen-tially worms pee and is used as fertiliser in the garden. The students started the project last year say its been a lot of fun, “except it really stinks,” adds student Logan McCrae.The funds raised will go towards bark to go around the garden so when it’s wet the stu-dents don’t get muddy. For more information about liquid gold con-tact the school office on 544-2243.

FLOODING: The car park at Jubilee Park was completely under water late last week. Photo: Phillip Rollo.

Surface flooding severe but no physical damage causedSevere weather hit the Tasman district last week causing surface flooding but luckily no physical damage has been recorded.Public information manager for Nelson Tasman civil defence Chris Choat says Tasman District Coun-cil contractors spent most of Friday and the weekend in clean-up mode.Chris says “as quickly as the surface flooding came up it went down”.“It was pleasing that things held.”

Around 10 families in the Ranzau Rd area were assisted by the fire ser-vice when evacuating their homes in the early hours of Thursday morning and there were a number of other self evacuations. Richmond chief fire officer Ralph Lonsdale says his crew were out helping people for around four hours in total.Chris was not sure if a record had been reached for rainfall in the area

for May, but around 180 millimetres of rain was recorded in the Rich-mond Ranges in total late last week.Road closures were put in place at several locations throughout the re-gion due to the high river levels and the Brightwater Bridge was closed for a period on Thursday morning.Chris says it was great to note the work council is doing in Golden Bay was not affected by the level of rainfall the area was hit with.

The Department of Conservation has recently approved granting a concession for parts of a hy-droelectric scheme on public conservation land at Lake Matiri, near Murchison, with stringent con-ditions to manage impacts of the scheme and to improve public access to the area. The concession is subject to acceptance of the terms by New Zealand Energy Limited.The concession allows NZEL to put parts of scheme infrastructure on Lake Matiri conserva-tion area, including three weirs at the lake outlets into the Matiri River, part of the penstock, and access track. Scheme infrastructure would also be installed on adjoining NZEL-owned land. The company has resource consents from the Tasman District Council for the power scheme. DOC Nelson/Marlborough acting community relations manager Rod Witte says public submis-sions on the draft concession document had been considered in approving the concession and its conditions. “Conditions reduce the environmental and recreational effects of the scheme to accept-able levels and provide for some conservation and recreation gains. Gains include public access im-provements and NZEL providing $30,000 funding to enhance freshwater aquatic habitat in the Buller River catchment.“A significant gain has been securing legal walking and biking access in perpetuity across the compa-ny’s land into Lake Matiri conservation area which is also an important gateway into Kahurangi Na-tional Park. Concession conditions also require NZEL to make improvements to the Lake Matiri access track.”NZEL will now be required to contribute $30,000 to benefit public recreational use of Matiri Valley public conservation land, which would be used to build a footbridge over the West Branch Matiri River or another recreational project. “An impor-tant consideration for the department has been measures to minimise impacts on the freshwater values in the conservation area, including longfin and shortfin eels and koaro, a native whitebait spe-cies,” says Rod. The concession conditions include maintaining fish passage between the lake and river, which is to be provided for in the design of the three weirs at the lake outlets. Fish screens are required on the penstock intake and trailrace to prevent eels and other fish getting caught in these. In considering the concession application and public submissions on it, DOC could only take into account matters relating to impacts of the scheme on public conservation land. This is in line with Conservation Act requirements for assessing such applications. The resource consent process considers wider effects.

Tourism numbers set to peak at right time for Richmond Festival

Paul McCo-nachie.

Of the 85,000 international visitors expect-ed in New Zealand for the Rugby World Cup later this year, around 14,000 are pre-dicted to stop in at Nelson, a number that is pleasing Richmond Festival organiser Paul McConachie.A report put together by Nelson and Tas-man Tourism estimates the Nelson econo-my will benefit by millions of dollars dur-ing and after the rugby tournament.The company has analysed the pool matches and has come to the conclusion that there will be times during September and October when the district will have the opportunity to lure visitors travelling

north and south between re-gions.Nelson and Tasman Tour-ism CEO Lynda Keene says the large number of tourists through the region will create a wonderful opportunity for the Richmond Festival.“It’s going to be very timely. It’s also going to be very good for the tourism industry as it is currently in a recession with spending down around 15 percent.”Lynda hopes the festival, along with other activities planned around the Tasman and Nelson region, will give the area a great

kick start into spring. “It’s a fantastic opportunity to re-ally promote the area we live in to the rest of the world.”Lynda says she is delighted the Richmond community will be able to put on an event like the Richmond Festival and is looking forward to seeing how things pan out.Paul is thrilled plans for the Rich-mond Festival have been coming along so well and now large num-

bers of visitors look set to be here for the activities things can only get better, he says.“It’s great to hear that such a large vol-ume of people are predicted to be in and

around the Nelson Tasman area for the last few weeks in September, which is when the Richmond Festival is taking place.”He says it’s also great that a number of Americans, who the town have unofficially adopted, will be in Nelson. “Now it’s just a case of enticing them out to Richmond, but with the exciting things we have planned that shouldn’t be a problem.”Over the coming months the Waimea Weekly will be able to pass on informa-tion about the events surrounding the Richmond Festival, taking place here from September 25 to 27. So far a Tasman 7s Invitational tournament, a Stars n Stripes Block Party and the Allstar Tailgate Party are on the cards.

The Richmond Mall has recently come on board as sponsors of the Tasman Ma-kos. To create more of an atmosphere at the three home games this coming season, Richmond Mall manager David Hill says he has introduced the idea of a Shark Pit.At each of the home games, played on August 16, 21 and 25, around 30 school children will be at the match in Makos jerseys. “They’ll be there to make as much noise as they can to cheer on our local team,” says David.The Richmond Mall is also proud to be the only suppliers of Makos tickets in the Tasman district this rugby season.

The Waimea Weekly can also reveal an exciting promotion the mall will be run-ning throughout the month of August. “There will be hun-dreds of dollars worth of Richmond Mall vouchers up for grabs through our make a banner and show your support campaign,” says David.Members of the community will be able to design and display banners to support the Makos. The vouchers will then be given away as

prizes.In the mall’s decision to get behind the Tasman Makos, David says management looked at the community aspect of the team. “The Makos have really stepped up to engaging with the community so we are happy to support them with their initiatives.”During the July school holidays mem-bers of the Makos team will be chap-eroning at the Richmond Mall’s model search. Members of the community will also be able to have lunch with the Ma-kos on July 27. With all these exciting ac-tivities occurring in the largest shopping complex in the region, David says things can only get better.

Seeing the country’s longest and most impres-sive collection of rugby photographs just got a whole lot easier... and cheaper. The Nelson Pro-vincial Museum currently has the outstanding Peter Bush photographic collection, reputably touted as the best rugby photographic collec-tion in the country. But it appeals to more than rugby fans, the social changes over the decades is a fascinating backdrop to the collection says museum chief Peter Millward. “It is a wonderful collection and we are very lucky to have it in a world cup year. We have had people from other parts of the country come in and take a look, it is that sought-after nationally.”As a special offer, the museum is running a lim-ited two for one deal to see the exhibition. Be one of the first 50 people to cut out the photo-graph above and take it with you to the museum and your companion will get in for free. The deal only applies to the first 50 people who bring in the photo so Peter urges people to get in quick. “We are feeling generous so thought we would help make it easy for people to come in, we want as many people to see it as possible, we are that excited by it.”Peter Bush QSM, started working on the side-lines as a young cadet for the New Zealand Her-ald in 1949, at a game between the All Blacks and the Wallabies. Since then, he has photographed hundreds of matches at home and overseas, en-joying privileged access to the All Black teams, both on and off the field.The exhibition also includes several mural sized works and a DVD in which Peter Bush recounts the stories behind his iconic images.

THE ULTIMATE COFFEE EXPERIENCE

Hair shave raises money for kids

Girl guide project in Fiji nearing completion

FOR THE KIDS: Club Waimea’s very own “Spindle” had great fun shaving club member Noel Water’s hair on Satur-day night. Noel was able to raise $2000 for the Starship Air Ambulance Service, which requires $1.5 million annually to keep operating. Photo: Teresa Hattan.

It was all for the kids on Saturday night as local man Noel Waters had his hair shaved for charity, raising $2000 in the process.In front of a room full of supporters Noel had his head shaved by local personality “Spindle” – after he had had a go with the shearers, and even a knife. The event was all in the name of raising funds for the Starship Foundation and spokesperson Mandy Fraser says com-munity groups such as Club Waimea, who choose to raise funds for Starship, are helping children from all over New Zealand. “Every year 150,000 children are treated at Starship, 300 of who are air lifted to the hospital from all parts of the country. Many of these young patients require intensive care treatment for life threatening illnesses and injuries and require immediate transportation to the hospital.”Club Waimea will now be looking to do charity events like this every year.

Two of the four New Zealand Girl Guide leaders to tour Fiji next month will be from right here in Tasman.Hope’s Kirsten Maling and Richmond’s Amanda Woolf have spent a number of months prepar-ing for the three week tour and say they are “itching” to get over there and do their bit.The pair leave Nelson on July 16 and will tour several outlying islands after stopping in at Fiji. “We will be taking leaders trainings, doing school visits as most units are run as part of the school programme and we will be running a girls camp while we are over there,” says Aman-da.The Girl Guiding project has had joint involve-ment from leaders from New Zealand and the UK over the past four years. This year will be the final time leaders from the two countries make the trip to Fiji.

We see clouds in the sky most days, especially at this time of the year. I learnt recently of another type of cloud. ‘The Cloud’ refers to cyberspace where, I’m told, sensible computer users store information. Rather than leaving it in their own computer where it might be subject to viruses or cyber-attacks or even earthquakes and other natural dis-asters, they upload it to ‘The Cloud’ where it is always available to them – at least that is the theory! Of course, ‘The Cloud’ is a symbol, a very mod-ern symbol. Like all symbols, it points to something else, something a little intangible. If we think about it, our lives are full of symbols, modern and not so mod-ern. There is the ‘heart’ that symbolises our love and care for others. There are the numerous trademarks used businesses and or-ganisations, there are road markings and signs…I’m sure you can think of dozens of others. All these exist to bring to our minds other reali-ties, whether they be desirable products or even possible fines if we exceed the speed limit!Spiritual realities are by their nature intangible.

So they too lend themselves to symbols which at-tempt to capture their essence. Perhaps the best known Christian symbol is

the cross of Jesus. For people of the Christian faith the cross symbolises the price Jesus paid for his commit-ment to truth and justice and to his mission of preaching and healing, and teaching people about the true nature of God. It symbolises too the suffering that we all experience at times in life. But most importantly it symbolises the new life that the resurrection of Jesus promises each and every one of us. The cross of Jesus then is a symbol of great hope. It can remind us that whatever suffer-ing or difficulty life brings us there is always the possibility of new life aris-ing from it.

We see this in the people of Christchurch. Many are still suffering and struggling. Yet out of this there are countless reports of people who have a new found appreciation of just what is important and enduring in life – love of family and friends, help given and received, even the wonderful gift that is life itself.

Council is urging members of the public to dob in boy racers ripping up roads at Saxton Field.The grass area behind the Saxton Oval athletics track and archery field is increasingly being used for illegal off-roading, while the car-park sur-rounding the oval has been a haven for boy rac-ers to do burnouts, some using cardboard trays under their tyres for less traction.But while Nelson City Council says it is “certainly a big no no,” they are relying on the general pub-lic to report any illegal activity to the police, so the multi-million dollar facility can continue to develop damage-free and without “bollards and gates” closing the park to the general public. “We want people to be able to feel free to walk around the park. But we just have to be vigilant. If

they see vehicles doing wheelies then they should call the police,” says sports ground maintenance supervisor Andrew Cavill.Saxton Field is closed between 10:30pm and 6am, but a lot of the offending has occurred during the middle of the day. Nelson police do regular pa-trols throughout the area and have caught offend-ers in the past. “They think if they go behind there that they’re not going to be seen, but that’s not necessarily the case.”As the Saxton Oval pavilion furthers develop-ment, Andrew says the more activity will “deter” people doing skids. He says a proposed burnout pad at a motorsport facility might not stop the offending. “Luckily we’ve had no significant damage. We’d hate to get to a stage where everything is closed off.”

Mandy Carter is the first to admit she didn’t look very good bald. She also admits her eyebrows have never fully grown back. “You don’t realise how important your eye-brows are until you’ve lost them, believe me!”The 40 year-old Hope resident will soon reach the five year “safe” period after be-ing diagnosed with an aggressive type of breast cancer, known as her2+, in 2007.Her2+ is a form of cancer that generally at-tacks younger women.Five years ago the drug that treats the dis-ease, Herceptin, was only available free to women for three months. At the time it was thought a 12 month course was need-ed to treat the cancer effectively so Mandy and her family were facing a bill of around $80,000.The courageous woman became involved with the Waimea Weekly in the early days of her treatment as her husband Brett’s Wanderers rugby team were preparing to shave their heads as part of a fundraiser. Mandy got in touch with owner of Waimea Weekly Steve Page, who straight away agreed to help by throwing the weight of the community’s new newspaper behind Mandy’s cause.Together with Mandy’s friends, family and the entire community the money needed for the course of Herceptin was gradually raised through a series of fundraisers, in-cluding collection tins at various Rich-mond retail stores and a family fun day in Brightwater. Even though Mandy says the experience of cancer was “horrible, to put it mildly”, the family and even the whole community had

a lot of fun fundraising to save her life.The hardest part of the whole experience she says, was having young children – Hamish was just five and Abby only three. For Mandy there was a definitive differ-ence between her pre-cancer life and her post-cancer life. Everything changed for her and for her family says Mandy’s moth-er Cynthia. “Everything you did changed, everything you thought. It’s incredible, it would happen to anybody who is diag-nosed with a terminal illness, it changes your life.”

Mandy says she was never one to say ‘why me’, instead it was the fact that she may not have a future and she might not be able to see her kids grow up that upset her.Cynthia also says there was also doubt in her own mind. She often thought about how the family would manage without her precious daughter. “You shouldn’t do that because there is always hope, but that’s your first emotion.”Mandy says having the support of her fam-ily was a huge incentive to get better with Cynthia doing the “kid thing” when she

couldn’t get out of bed after chemotherapy and her children giving her the drive to stay positive. “I certainly would’ve done everything I did but I probably wouldn’t have had the same drive if I didn’t have my kids.”Having the entire community reach out and say ‘you need to get better’ was also very inspiring, and at times overwhelming, for Mandy and her family.The family says it amazed them how many people donated money, right from a $1000 donation through to the lady around the corner who gave $20 even though she couldn’t afford it. “We had a really hard time with how we were ever going to pay this back. We knew we weren’t going to be able to pay it back monetary wise, but we thought what can we ever do that’s going to say thank-you to all these people,” says Mandy. “It felt like we were invincible. You kind of thought there was no other choice [but to get bet-ter] because there was so many people be-hind me.”Another positive that came from Mandy’s illness was a petition that was signed by over 20,000 people and given to Nelson MP Nick Smith. As a result, a full 12-month course of Herceptin is now funded by Pharmac, as opposed to the previous three. Mandy says she hasn’t exactly been given a clean bill of health, as you can never guar-antee that the cancer is gone, and has had some scares with two abnormal mammo-grams. But reaching the five year milestone will be a big moment for her. “For a long time I didn’t think I would see five years so it will be very special.”

Proud to Support Nelson Kartsport

www.mitchellwilson.co.nz

Nelson’s KartSport drivers will be tearing into action this weekend as the 26th Central New Zealand Sunbelt Championship hits the region.

The Sunbelt Series is one of the biggest weekends of the year for the KartSport Nelson club. Nelson drivers compete against the best of their South Island counterparts in a two-day series with the individual winner finishing with the least points at the weekend’s conclusion.

The first of the two-day event will be held at the Radio Nelson Raceway on Saturday June 4, with racing commencing at 11am. The following day is held in Blenheim.

The event is free for spectators and is a great opportunity to see some of the rising stars of New Zealand motorsport in action against some of the karting heavyweights. Nelson’s very own V8 Supercars superstar Jason Richards is a former KartSport driver.

The KartSport classes include Cadets, Junior Restricted, Junior Yamaha, Senior Yamaha Light, Senior Yamaha Heavy, Rotax Max Light, Rotax Max Heavy and Open. Open classed karts can reach speeds of a whopping 140kph.

A number of competitors have entered the prestigious event, one entry even coming as far as Invercargill.

The Sunbelt Series also provides younger drivers some key competition before the National Secondary Schools Championship being held in Hamilton on July 23.

On June 26, the club is holding a Have-a-go day where locals get the chance to have a go in real karts around the track and learn the tricks of the trade from experienced drivers. This day is a great opportunity to try out this adrenalin rush for yourself.

The KartSport club is also privileged to announce the South Island Masters will be held in the region in October. The event will be part of the Masters Games and will include night races.

If you are interested in the Have-a-go day, phone vice-president Alistair McFadzien on 0272817664 for more information.

There are plenty of reasons to visit KartSport Nelson’s track on the Moutere Highway in Redwood Valley. This weekend they are hosing the Sunbelt Sprint Championships and on June 26 you can have a turn in a kart at their Have-a-Go Day

It was a week to forget for Waimea College sport. In just four days, the first XI football team and the first XV rugby team were overcome by local rivals Nayland College.While one defeat was expected, the 17-15 Press Cup loss was a huge surprise with the new boys forcing Waimea College in to numerous uncharacteristic errors. Regular first five-eighth Samuel Johnson injected some much needed spark to the Waimea College attack after the home side found themselves struggling to hold on to an 8-7 lead at oranges. Levi McPherson scored late in the opening half, but Sean Clementson's knock-on over the chalk was just a number of frustrating errors for the green and gold. Lucas Bateup helped sure up the lead from a Jordan Inwood knock-on inside his own in-goal, but forward passes, knock-ons and errors made it look like a different Waimea College side to the one that deserved to beat Nelson College two weeks ago. Jordan kicked Nayland College back in the lead minutes later to seal the 17-15 upset.Though the first XI football team lost 4-0 to Nayland College last Wednesday, they showed glimpses of class in their first match with side in three years.The game was a national secondary school qualifier - Waimea College will also play Nelson College and Marlborough Boys

High School in the coming weeks.Goalkeeper Mitchell Page had a busy outing against Nayland College's star strikers, Gagame Feni and Jerry Donga, but showed plenty of heart making some great saves at the death. Leftback Niall Young was the standout for Waimea College. Fox Slotemaker worked hard in the middle of the park and Richmond Athletic's Daniel Grimshaw was always a threat outside.Waimea College were playing Nelson College today in the second national qualifier.

FOOTBALL: Richmond drew against Marl-borough Mariners 2-2 on Saturday with goals to Sam Mason-Smith and Davi Maciel. The team take on Nelson Suburbs in their second Chatham Cup challenge next Monday at Sax-ton Stadium from 2.30pm.

MOTORCROSS: This Sunday MotoX Events have put together an event aimed at the whole family. The event will include classes for all rid-ers from first timer’s right through to experts. The day, held at the Hunts property on 88 Val-ley Rd, is also a good chance for families to get along and see if motocross is a sport they’d be interested in. Sign in is from 8am to 8.30am and entry fees are $40 per rider or $80 per fam-ily. Food and drink is available for purchase at the track. For more information call Bryan on 027 277 6035 or visit www.myrides.co.nz.

NATIONAL SQUAD: Waimea College’s Emily Jensen, 15, has been named in the national un-der 17 women’s training group that is aiming for a spot at the Fifa World Cup next year.

SportsIn BrIef

There are simply not enough superlatives to describe the talent and application of skills of the Waimea College 9A team who compete in the Collegiate 1 grade. The team is well drilled by coaches Ann Wicken and Barbara Kreft and such is the depth and versatility of the ten players that numerous positional changes can be made without losing a beat. It was a challenge for the scribe to keep track of the 13 changes, however there were helpful supporters on the sideline that lent their assistance!There was very little ball that was thrown away (I doubt that even the Premier grade would have such a low number), the girls were totally in sync with one another and their timing was astonishing! There was always support on hand through court and the shooters received an abundance of well placed ball.Each and everyone played a role – the shooters were accurate, the mid courters linked well to deliver pressure-free ball and the defenders hunted for intercept ball.Katie Thompson impressed at both centre and wing defence where she gained numerous deflections. Ruby Jensen playing at centre and wing attack pulled in three beautiful, well timed intercepts and delivered some precision feeds.Morgan Inch was steady at wing attack in the first half and then went on to shine at goal shoot in the third stanza to convert ten from ten. Morgan was well supported by the other shooters – Emily O’Connor, Anika Paton and Katie Ditzel.The two Hannah’s – Davenhill and Taylor (another challenge for yours truly – both in the defensive circle, both with red hair

in ponytails!) were a defensive wall, pulling in a number of intercepts (not prepared to say how many for each, just in case I got them mixed up!) and rebounding strongly to deny Nayland a second opportunity.Although it was a big win (56 – 5) to Waimea, to their credit Nayland continued to try hard for the full forty minutes.Waimea Intermediate 8B had a slow start against Broadgreen Intermediate Oaks in Junior 1 Grade and was in arrears by 1 – 7

at the first break. With a better defensive effort in the second quarter the score was 4 – 11 at the major break.The third quarter belonged to Waimea as they outscored Broadgreen 10 – 4. Goal shoot, Katie Linney found her rhythm when she converted some beautiful long range shots. Wing attack Rachel McKenzie

took on a hefty load of court work, when she displayed good pre-movement and distributed quality ball. Wing defence Olivia Wilbourne hassled her opposite, applying pressure on the outside of the circle. It was Broadgreen who finished stronger which enabled them to record the 19 – 17 win.Although Wanderers Phoenix won the second quarter 10 – 8, Jacks Pro Netball dominated the remainder of the game.Abbie Cederman and Christine Bromley gave away a head and shoulders height advantage to Jacks shooter Natasha Tucker, however they toiled throughout to deny possession. Andrea Strong at wing attack showed good speed off the line and delivered good ball to the mother and daughter shooting combo of Sue and Katie Macdonald. Jacks took the Grade 3 game 44 – 27.

It's a must win game for the Waimea Old Boys division one side this weekend and they know it.Stables Waimea Old Boys didn't have the opportunities to capital-ize on in their 18-13 loss to Ac-cessman Stoke on Club day, an unfamiliar feeling against the de-fending champions, as the home side fell to their second loss in as many games to leave their playoff chances in the balance. Goal kick-er Andrew Letham had accumu-lated 55 points against Stoke in the past two games, but he didn't get the same chances against a much more disciplined side.Waimea Old Boys coach Mark Milne says his side “didn't cre-ate any pressure” in the second half, after a strong showing in the opening spell where Tasman Makos halfback Kaide Whiting scored from a James Lowe break in the 25th minute.He says failure to score from their opportunities was key to their loss.Mark says James, who remained at fullback, has been playing par-ticularly well with more space to work with, but the inside backs struggled to get him involved in the match. Former New Zealand Universities and Auckland Var-sity flanker Kieran Williams was a standout in a tight match. “His work-rate was tremendous,” he says.While he was “pretty happy” with the first half performance, it was “frustrating” to watch Stoke dominate possession with a five point lead. “They did that very well and played the way they should have. They kept their hands on the ball and denied us any possession. You have to take your hat off to them.”The Car Company first division side were the

only Waimea Old Boys senior team to lose on their club day.The team will now take a positive mindset in to the week hoping to overturn this season's sur-prise package ENZA Riwaka away on Saturday. “We got embarrassed by them on our home track in the last round. We have to express our-selves, keep our heads up and just keep working hard. It's going to be tough for us to qualify. Ba-sically, if we don't win over there in Riwaka, it's our season over.”

Winning on club day a ‘huge’ motivation

The Waimea Old Boys division two side managed to come out on top af-ter a tough game against Wanderers on Saturday.“It was one of the toughest games this season for the boys and a few of them were pretty sore on Saturday night,” says coach Nick Marquet.With a 18-15 win up their sleeves, the squad will be looking to secure a win on the road against Takaka this weekend.Nick says although the entire team put in a top effort, stand-out perfor-mances against the Brightwater and Wakefield side were put in by Ham-

ish Beallagh, Greg Monk and Ben Jeffrey.“The boys all put in a big effort, es-pecially after last week; it was a big step up.“This week we’ll have to put in an-other big defensive effort as we’re leading up to the semis now,” says Nick.Other results from the weekend’s matches at Jubilee Park included the Waimea Old Boys thirds scraping through against Marist 29-27.The Waimea Old Boys senior wom-en were able to comfortably beat Stoke 20-10.

Changes to kerbside rubbish bag pricingTasman District Council will be introducing an additional, larger kerbside rubbish bag from mid June 2011.

The new yellow bags will hold 60 litres, one third larger than the existing 45 litre bags. The bags will be sold individually and in packs of four and will be sold at Council offices and the usual outlets across the District. Initially the bags will retail at Council offices at $1.80 each.
