guardian SCORES & DRAWS 24 WEDNESDAY 22 OCTOBER 2014 the Twilight athletics season gets underway On Friday evening, three vanloads of athletes from the Motueka High School Athletics Academy headed across to Saxton Stadium to begin the twilight season. It was a low key start with just a handful of events being run but it was a chance to see if the hours of running the roads during the winter months was going to pay dividends. The National Secondary School Champs are to be held in Wanganui in December so this was also the next step for those athletes who have qualified. The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly Tess Haunch’s PB (Personal Best) in the Long Jump at just over 5.0 m but there a range of good performances in both the 60m and 100m. The racing was especially close in the boys racing with fractions of a second covering the top 7 times. Connor Bithell took out the quickest time overall with Culainn Stringer just behind. In the girls races, Amanda Fitsemanu had the fastest time overall but our new exchange student athlete, Danielle Wember was only a footstep behind. The result was identical in the girls 100m race (Amanda stopping the clock at 12.6 seconds, just outside her own PB) but the timers could not separate Culainn and Connor second time around in the boy’s racing. Risi Pouri Lane showed that she’s lost nothing in the off season with the javelin. She was within 3m of her own South Island record and threw consistently all Indoor netball Twilight Netball league begins next month.

The final track event of the evening was the 600m, a notoriously tough distance. The girl’s race was taken out by Kelsey Barrett who looked strong throughout. Jacob Bryan (a year 9 student) finished second in his race behind a much older athlete and looks a good prospect. Coach Tony Aitkenhead was pleased with how the squad looked. “We had 25 athletes competing tonight which is the most we have ever had. Next year we’ll have 35 in the Academy and that will be really exciting.” We’ll be watching the squad with interest as they build for the upcoming season. Amanda Fitsemanu, Danielle Wember and Tess Haunch wind up to full speed in the 60m sprint. Summer soccer league warms up Motueka’s Summer Soccer League kicks-off this evening with a friendly warm up round before getting in to full swing next Wednesday evening, and organisers say there is still room for teams to join. The six-aside summer series includes three grades which allows for all family members to be a part of. The mixed grade is child orientated and is suitable for women and under 15 year olds. Men can also play in this grade but aren’t allowed to score goals. The social grade is for all players, but the rule is there must be at least three women or under 15 year old players on the field at all times. For more competitive games, there is the premier grade too. The summer series is well-known for being a fun, family orientated, and sociable competition, and is also great for winter footballers who want to keep up their skills and fitness throughout summer. Games are played every Wednesday evenings at Goodmans Park next to the Bowls Motueka 16/10/14 Gross Winners: Mate Crins and Anna Motueka Bowling Club Lucas 178 15th October Gross Runner Up: Margaret Robertson Very well supported “Two Bowl” triples and Barbara Winstone 179 1st, 2nd and 3rd places – Motueka teams: Nett Winners: Jean Hodson and Julia Doug Anderson (skip), Bob Foster and Armstrong 136 Mike Baines Nett Runner Up: Astrid Tudberry and Penny Morris (skip), Di Fairhall and Daph Hamilton 139 Gordon Morris 2nd Runner Up: Marie West and Shirley Justine Cowman (skip), Sheryl Riordanand Otton 140 Bill Gray. 3rd Runner Up: Jan Blomfield and Josie Rosser 143 c/b 4th Runner Up: Elaine Allen and Cay Cockerell 143 5th Runner Up: Penny Brown and Anne NBS Motueka Golf Club Results Lawrence 144 Womens: Gwen Crossman Foursomes played at Twos: Julia Armstrong and Jean Hodson Golf Touch Draw Week 2 = Thursday 23rd October 2014 MOTUEKA TOUCH INC Field 1 Field 2 Field 3 Field 4 Field 5 Field 6 Talley’s Fisheries Mixed D 5.45pm BYE Waewaenuku REF Mini Meenies vs To Be Decided Asher 6.20pm Creatures in Steel Mixed C2 REF Hyundai Hammers vs Wasted Knights Asher/Zander 6.55pm 7.30pm 8.05pm Jess Mixed C2 Devon Fraser’s Logging vs Blue Meenies Hana BT Hannah Eliza Alan F Mondo Mixed A & Whitwells Mixed B BYE Touch & Go (Friendly game) Rangers vs Vikings BYE River Rats Graeme The Boyz vs Xhosa’s Bryn’s Team vs Vikings Jess Rochelle Hagar’s Vikings vs Team Tui Ivan’s Vikings vs Turbos BT Vinny Field 9 Vicious & Delicious vs Team Kea Brodie F Lydia’s vs Vikings BYE PWCPT Jess Mens C The Bolts vs Rednecks BYE Sharks Karl Richards C&J Fowler Mens A & Whitwells Mens B C&J Fowler Mens A & Whitwells Mens B REF Zander Connor Wilkins Sprigs vs Team JCR Clunk Clunk Team Taniwha vs Vikings Youth New World vs Vikings Jnr Motueka Packaging Masters REF MHS Girls vs Rebels Bays Boating vs Unidentified Rangers Rhinos vs Footloose Wasted Knights vs Passed It The Stormers vs The Painters Can’t touch this vs River Rats The Beastz vs Zig Zagging Field 8 Motueka Sportsworld Womens Open Guthrie Bowron Mixed C1 Guardian Newspaper Mens C REF Team Taniwha vs Titans Field 7 Greenbacks vs Lids Tool Guys vs Vikings w Kicks Hana Zander/Asher NOTES: FRIENDLY Touch & Go vs Full Noise Hannah * Subs must be paid by Thursday 6th November * Check out our 'motueka/riwaka touch' facebook page for info updates, cancellations, etc CONTACTS: * Boss = Jess jess.d@xtra.co.nz * Draw = Rochelle grant.roberts@clear.net.nz * Subs = Leah 0273375826 * Referees = Kayla 0278649984 Recreation Centre, and the season goes right through summer until mid-March, with a two week break around the Christmas period. “It was brilliant last year,” says organiser Carl Koberstein. “It’s a very social competition and we’re all a bunch of mates!” “We are about three quarters full so teams can still register before we get underway”.
