Who wants to be Mayor? Another win for LuuTomes Only one Tawa's green candidate P3 fingers P8 Kapi-Mana News Tuesday, August 9, 2016 Best Community Newspaper Canon Media Awards 2016 Guard of honour for Canes Dave Ives says it was a night no one will ever forget. Fifty-two Paremata Plimmerton Rugby Football Club juniors were flag bearers at the sold-out Westpac Stadium on Saturday night, welcoming Hurricanes and Lions players onto the field for the Super Rugby final. Ives, the club’s junior convenor, said the opportunity for players from nursery grade to under- 13 to be front and centre for a historic occasion was brilliant. ‘‘We’re incredibly grateful to have had that opportunity. It was freezing cold, standing out there, but you couldn’t take the smile off their faces.’’ The Hurricanes’ 20-3 win, their maiden title in Super Rugby, made the occasion all the sweeter, Ives said. “To the Ninness Funeral Directors, in appreciation of your guidance and planning of a lovely service for our Mum.

  • From Chronology to Confessional: New Zealand Sporting Biographies in Transition

    From Chronology to Confessional: New Zealand Sporting Biographies in Transition

    From Chronology to Confessional: New Zealand Sporting Biographies in Transition GEOFF WATSON Abstract Formerly rather uniform in pattern, sporting biographies have evolved significantly since the 1970s, becoming much more open in their criticism of teammates and administrators as well as being more revealing of their subject’s private lives. This article identifies three transitional phases in the genre; a chronological era, extending from the early twentieth century until the 1960s; an indirectly confessional phase between the 1970s and mid 1980s and an openly confessional phase from the mid-1980s. Despite these changes, sporting biographies continue to reinforce the dominant narratives around sport in New Zealand. New Zealand sporting biographies have a mixed reputation in literary and scholarly circles. Often denigrated for their allegedly formulaic style, they have also been criticised for their lack of insight into New Zealand society.1 Representative of this critique is Lloyd Jones, who wrote in 1999, “sport hardly earns a mention in our wider literature, and … the rest of society is rarely, if ever, admitted to our sports literature.”2 This article examines this perspective, arguing that sporting biographies afford a valuable insight into New Zealand’s changing self- image and values. Moreover, it will be argued that the nature of sporting biographies themselves has changed significantly since the 1980s and that they have become much more open in their discussion of teammates and the personal lives of their subjects. Whatever one’s perspective on the literary merits of sporting biographies, their popular appeal is undeniable. Whereas the print run of most scholarly texts in New Zealand is at best a few thousand, sporting biographies consistently sell in the tens of thousands.

    Club Rugby - the Heart of the Union

    Club Rugby - The Heart of the Union In the professional era, which has been increasingly dominant in the game since the mid 1990’s, one of rugby’s basic tenets has been inevitably undermined. That is the concept that Clubs, both on the field and off as community forces, are the foundation of the game and that their interests should be paramount. A provincial union after all, is essentially a collection of Clubs who are the game’s true owners. To its credit, since its formation in 1985, North Harbour has always striven to give Club rugby, from premier down to the Saturday morning junior grades, the recognition it deserves. And even in recent years, when All Blacks, Super 12/14 players and occasionally provincial representatives, no longer appear regularly for Clubs and for those few at elite level, never at all, that mantra has still applied. A special promotion has always been made of Club finals day. As well as the premier final, plate and pool playoffs have also been held and either as curtain-raisers or on adjacent grounds, the finals have generally held for reserves, under 21 and under 19 grades. With most of the union’s Clubs involved, crowds, firstly at Onewa Domain and since 1997 at Albany, have occasionally approached five to six thousand. There was a slight variation to the programmes in 2009, with the premier grade championship and plate-finals being the only two games played because of the need to fit in with the start of the Air New Zealand Cup. There was still a bumper attendance at Albany and the union, again to its credit and that of the new representative coaches, Craig Dowd and Jeff Wilson, allowed the Clubs full use of their top players.

  • France-Nouvelle-Zélande En Rugby À XV

    France-Nouvelle-Zélande en rugby à XV Note 1 L'équipe de France de rugby à XV et l'équipe de Nouvelle-Zélande de rugby à XV (les All Blacks ) s'affrontent France-Nouvelle-Zélande depuis un siècle. Au 9 novembre 2013, elles ont disputé cinquante-six test matchs l'une contre l'autre. La première confrontation, qui est aussi le premier match officiel de l'histoire rugbystique de la France, a lieu à Paris en rugby à XV le 1er janvier 1906 et voit la Nouvelle-Zélande s'imposer 38 – 8. Il faut attendre 1954 pour que la France s'impose (3 – 0). La France fait une tournée en Nouvelle-Zélande en 1961, avant même les nations britanniques et irlandaises, et les All Blacks remportent les trois tests. La première tournée complète des All Blacks en France date de 1977, et ils remportent un des deux tests. La France bat les All Blacks sur le sol néo-zélandais le 14 juillet 1979. Les deux équipes se rencontrent à l'occasion de la première Coupe du monde en finale en 1987, et les All Blacks s'imposent 29 – 9. La France réussit pour la première fois une série victorieuse en Nouvelle-Zélande en 1994 en remportant les deux tests. Les équipes se rencontrent de nouveau en Coupe du monde en 1999, mais cette fois en demi-finale. Le match se dispute à Twickenham, et la France remonte un handicap de 24 – 10 pour l'emporter 43 – 31. En 2007, Haka réalisé par les All Blacks avant un à l'occasion de la Coupe du monde, les deux équipes s'affrontent en quart-de-finale au Millennium Stadium de test match contre la France en 2006.

    The Influence of Foreign Players on the Transformation of Japanese Rugby Over the Last Three Decades

    The influence of foreign players on the transformation of Japanese rugby over the last three decades A Thesis Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the Degree of Master ofArts in Sociology in the University of Canterbury By Hiroshi Sakata University of Canterbury 2004 8*7 7~e'~f6!lt7)I::tJ6I:: This thesis aims to contribute to the further development ofJapanese rugby. ABSTRACT This thesis explores the influence of foreign players on the transformation of Japanese rugby over the last three decades. Foreign players first had an impact in company league teams and, more latterly, have also played with distinction in the Japanese national team. Using historical materials and interview data with players, coaches and administrators, I show how the game of rugby in Japan has developed, and consider aspects of the relationship between migrant players and the Japanese game. I follow the actors through the shift from the amateur to the professional period, and describe the impact on Japanese rugby of foreign players and coaches. In the first chapter, I describe the establishment and historical development path of rugby in Japan. The game has incorporated aspects of Japanese styles of organisation, playing techniques and philosophies. Until the 1980s, high school and university rugby was the most popular form of the game, but after then, rapidly-developing company rugby became the predominant domestic form of the game. The company game's latest iteration, launched in 2003, is the Top League, and in it, labour relations have become more professional. Chapter Two describes the influence of foreign players in company teams, looking in particular at migration trends, eligibility rules and labour relations.
