The teams gained selec- tion at the Zone 2 competitions held at the ASB Centre in Tauranga, both coming runners up. While being eli- gible to compete in the small school competition, the teams opted to compete in the Premier section which makes their achievements all the more significant. Our Junior Boys team competed well in the premier grade at tournament too. The teams head off to Palmerston North as Waikato Basketball cham- pions. This success comes on the back of some stellar individual per- formances including Kaylee and Hayley’s selection in the victorious Waikato Women’s under 23 team. I would like to acknowledge the sus- tained effort and hard work of the coaching and managerial staff in their commitment to the team. Spe- cial thanks go to whanau and friends who have supported all these young athletes and indeed all the students who took part in a very successful Tournament Week. Go well teams. We wish you all the very best.

While the draft report is some time away the SLT have already begun to reflect on some of the reviewers’ interim com- ments. The review this time was different in that it focused on priority learners, Māori, Pasifika and students with learning needs. Introduced in May this year, the new format is designed to work with schools to identify and accelerate the achievement of priority learners. The final report will be two months away.

We are pleased to present the 2019 Annual Report to you. The 2019 year was as always, a busy and productive year in the Northern Zone. As you are aware it was a challenging year financially, but from an operational perspective we were able to continue our delivery in partnership with our 17 Centres largely without interruption, along with delivery of the Marvels and Mystics programmes. Finances We signaled to all Centres that the Zone was working in extremely challenged circumstances through the year. This was largely the result of not having a naming rights sponsor in place for the Mystics, and a lower level of successful applications for community funding in the early part of the year. After a massive effort from the Zone management team and Board, the result was a $17k surplus. This was achieved through the delivery of two fundraising events by the Board, disciplined application to community funders, and cost reduction through the generosity of staff members in taking reduced hours, and we thank Tia Winikerei and Chris Tennant for their willingness to make that sacrifice. We were also able to save the cost of the CEO role for 3.5 months and received a contribution from Netball New Zealand towards our development programme.
