A return back to Peter Snell's old school to look for a new champion became a reality last week. Stage 2 testing at Mount Albert Grammar (MAGS), a school with a strong tradition in the Talent Search Programme, was conducted to identify future sport stars. A well motivated and behaved group completed the testing with some fantastic results. Well done to all that took part and thank you to all of the staff that took part in collating the results.
Long Bay College held their first Stage 2 Testing at the school. With the inclusion of their junior sports academy class there was a wealth of talent on display across many sports. The teacher in charge of the academy Pete Williams and principal Russell Brooke were present during the testing and delighted to see the students engaging in this form of Talent ID.
There were some terriffic results at Howick College Stage 2 Talent Search Testing. The most exciting of which was the smashing of the girls Beep Test record. The record now stands at Level 13.7. Congratulations on some great work.
The Triathlon World Championships in Vancouver were thrown into turmoil this morning with high winds and cold temperatures forcing organizers to cancel the swim leg for most of the age group races, turning the event into a duathlon.
