Fundraising to help the Wellington Novice Women attend Nationals
Wellington
Kia ora!
Our names are Hannah, Nikita, Jazz and Shay. We are part of the Wellington Rowing Club and in 2024, we learnt to row and have been training hard to improve our skills and compete. The New Zealand Nationals competition is in Twizel this year and we’d love to be able to attend and put our hard work to the test.
Attending nationals for a week comes with a lot of costs and if you’d like to help us out, we’d really appreciate it!
The money will be used to help us with the costs of travel, accommodation, and food during one week of February when we attend the competition and hopefully come home to Wellington with some medals!
Thank you! 28 February 2025
So we’re back from the NZ National Champs, we pushed ourselves really hard and have progressed so much since we first started rowing. Although we didn’t get any medals this time, we made it to the finals for both our quad and our four, and we also got 1st and 3rd in the doubles B-final which we are so proud of!
Thank you so much for everyone who has supported us, the costs of all our training camps and in attending this regatta are so high and it means the world to us to have your support and has provided us with such the opportunity to compete, we are so grateful and would not have been able to without you, thank you!
What’s next? Well we are going to keep rowing and now we know how tough the competition is, we will try even harder for our next regatta at intermediate level.
Ngā mihi,
Nikita, Hannah, Jazz and Shay
