The third running of this Event took place on Sunday, May 25th at Ashbury Park, Timaru in cool, fine conditions. With nearly 60 schools represented from all over the South Island there were excellent fields and competitive racing across all grades, particularly for the High School runners just three weeks out from National Secondary Schools. Siena Mackley retained her Senior Girls title with Millie McFadzien second and Abby O’Boyle third. James Weber took out the Senior Boys race from Daniel Wordsworth and Thomas Newsom. In the Under 16 races Tayla Cox was the girls victor from Milla Boulton and Isabel Prescott with Luke Angland holding off Jack Scoon and Billy Nelson in the boys race. Year 9 titles went to Charlotte Hawkes from Elodie Wightman and Eva McLean in the girls and Brock Smith was the best of the Year 9 boys from Caleb Dobier and Henry Ridd.

NZSSAA Cross Country Tour 2026
NZSSAA is looking to send a representative cross country team to an international destination in 2026, likely beyond the oceania region to compete in a significant event(s) or the ISF World Schools’ Cross Country Championships. We have no detail yet on the confirmed location or competition structure of the 2026 ISF event (i.e. specific event details including location, dates, team makeup, etc.) as information for the ISF championships is yet to be released. However, it is important for athletes to be aware that once event information is known for the ISF event or another event(s) and NZSSAA involvement confirmed, team selection will be based on results from the NZSSAA Cross Country Championships in Whangarei. Other school, club, and ANZ event rankings will also be taken into consideration. Once a tour is confirmed expressions of interest will be advertised on the NZSSAA website and Facebook page. Such a tour will be for those senior students attending secondary school in 2026 and would take place in the first half of the year. |
