RUNNING AGAINST THE WIND

Last weekend Johnny Rowe should have been in England, competing in the London Marathon. But Covid-19 meant that the now-local didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get the opportunity to face the starter. On the same day though, he joined thousands of other people from around the world to tackle the marathon. Running from the foot of Mt Hutt to his home base in Winchmore, he completed the journey in under four hours. He tells his story to journalist Sue Newman on P4.

Happy people with happy faces is how Lets Chalk About Mental Health organiser Ngawaiata Williams described the scene on Sunday. Williams said the event drew a large crowd and a joyful vibe. The special guests Nix Adams, Kloe Romana and Jah the Jester were all big hits, she said. Nix Adams on behalf of CWK fundraising presented Connie Quigley and Paul (Pup) Chamberlain from Lives Worth Living with a sizable donation.

“It is about bring money into our community for groups like that to use.” Williams said having Pup and Connie on hand was a big plus as she could point them out and say if you need someone to talk to, talk to them. For Williams one big takeaway moment of the day was seeing everybody chatting, mingling with each other and sharing their stories. “Nobody had their heads down looking at the ground, they were all looking each other in the

eye.” Williams made special mention of Huia Campbell, as she said Campbell kept it real for her. “I would have all these far-out ideas and Huia would say: ‘Nah, let’s just do this much’.” Campbell’s guiding hand notwithstanding Williams said she will be back again next year with a bigger and brighter event.

Judge sceptical of softening cannabis views Lawyer Roz Burnside talked about softening views towards cannabis, and the upcoming referendum, as she sought a fair sentence for her client. However, Judge Tom Gilbert appeared sceptical. Even if the non-binding referendum went through on a yes vote and was passed into law, the amount of cannabis the defendant had growing was substantial. “It still wouldn’t get close to rendering lawful what was grown at his place,” His Honour told Burnside in the Ashburton District Court on Monday.

Peter John McDonald was sentenced to four months’ home detention at his Ashburton home on each of the two charges he had earlier pleaded guilty to, possession of cannabis for supply and cultivation of cannabis. Burnside said McDonald had medical issues, including a compromised immune system which was the underlying reason for using. He had considered medicinal cannabis but this would cost $600 per month which was out of reach for the beneficiary, who lost his job in a serious accident last year. The police summary of facts

stated police executed a search warrant on the address in November last year, and found a reasonably sophisticated operation, although did not consider it to be hugely commercial. A rear sleepout had a grow tent and seven plants used as mother plants, while the back half of a single garage was the main growing area. In the front half was a wardrobe with a High Intensity Discharge (HID) light hanging over 17 seedlings in individual pots, and inside the main growing area were four large mature cannabis plants about one metre high under another HID lamp.

“These plants were close to harvesting and had a large volume of cannabis head on them, approximately two to three ounces each,” the summary of facts stated. Underneath another HID lamp were 20 smaller plants ranging from 30 to 50 centimetres. The defendant could potentially make $30,000 a year if he was selling all the cannabis. Inside another rear building, a large double garage, were 42 grams of loose cannabis head and a set of electronic scales and zip-lock bags. More court news, P8

WORD ON THE STREET Christmas items are appearing in shops. Is it too early, or have you already started to buy presents?

CELIA JERARD WITH SONS JOSH, 10, AND JAKE, 7 “I haven’t even thought about it. I think this year Christmas has come as a surprise to most people with everything that has been going on.”

GILL REID “I don’t really Christmas shop, I just do birthdays. But there’s some nice things coming into the shops, I think for people who like to start early I think it’s probably quite nice.”

BERNARD AND KATH MENTINK “I have a countdown on my phone, it’s 80 more days until Christmas, and it plays a wee tune. I have started looking,” Kath said. “From October I feel you can go for it,” Bernard said.

JO AND PAUL EDEN “We just think ‘Goodness they are putting decorations in the shop already?’. It does feel a bit early,” Jo said. “But it’s a good time to get things because you can avoid the rush,” Paul said.

JENNY WALKER “I haven’t started my Christmas shopping and I think it’s a bit early.”

RILEY CLAYDON-WADE “I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it, I quite like to see Christmas items in the shops, especially because we have had a bit of a rough year.”

Not recyclable? Don’t use it By Heather Mackenzie

If it can’t be reused, composted or recycled then don’t buy it, says Simple Eco store owner Danielle Guise. Guise’s shop in the triangle is bulging with alternatives to single-use plastics and chemical-laden products. Among her favourite items are the compostable pot scrubbers, the stainless steel lunch boxes and the toothpaste tabs in a metal container.

“There are more and more alternative products coming on the market all the time. If people need help finding alternatives, I am happy to advise them.” The latest addition to her eco-friendly line-up is bamboo -framed, high-quality lens sunglasses. “Imagine how much plastic would be saved going into landfill if all glasses frames were made from bamboo.” Since the move was made to recycle plastics labelled one, two or five, Guise said people comment that the district’s red bins should be bigger to compensate. “This is the wrong way to be thinking, it should be what can I

use as an alternative?” Guise pointed out that beeswax wraps could be used to replace cling film, natural soaps cut down on waste, refill products are a better alternative and razors like those used by dads in the 1970s with replaceable blades are one of her favourite products in the shop. In relation to the common opinion that alternative products are often more expensive, Guise said doing something good for the environment should outweigh a few extra dollars. “People think that once their red bin contents have been collected, the plastic rubbish has somehow disappeared, but it can

sit in landfill for the next thousand years. “It’s about stepping back and thinking ‘what will this do to the environment?’ If the answer is negative then find an alternative. We all need to think big picture,” she said. Such is the demand for her products and the lack of space for increased stock ranges, Simply Eco is on the move at the end of the month. “After five years of being in the triangle we are shifting to Ashford Village. The new shop will be about three times the size we have now and I am looking forward to having the extra space to sell more New Zealand supplied products.”

Covid meant double marathon for Rowe By Sue Newman sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

With his 40th birthday looming Johnny Rowe decided there was no better way to celebrate the new decade than with a challenge – running his first marathon. When the 40th London Marathon was scheduled for his birthday, April 26, and with the opportunity to gain entry through his employer marathon sponsor Virgin Money, Rowe decided the planets were aligned. He booked a spot and started training. He had a half marathon in his past and plenty of gym work and cricket behind him, but the training needed for a full marathon was next level, he said. All through the English summer Rowe pounded the streets, logging kilometre after kilometre. And as the weeks rolled by he worked his way towards peak fitness. With his training running smoothly, Rowe and wife Pip decided with sons Freddie and George to make a trip home to New Zealand in February to visit family. Training could continue on the long Mid Canterbury roads, and they’d be back in England well ahead of the marathon. What they hadn’t counted on

was Covid-19 and the travel chaos that followed. After 13 years in the UK, a permanent return home had been in their two year plan, but lockdown got them thinking about moving that date forward. What started out as a holiday became a commitment to stay. But it also left Rowe without his planned birthday challenge. Covid also meant the April 26 London Marathon was postponed again and again, but Rowe was committed to running a marathon to celebrate his birthday, albeit completing his training along roads around the family’s Winchmore farm battling winter wind, hail and rain. His birthday arrived, marathon day. “I just got up early that morning and did it. The first 30ks were okay but the last 10k you hit the wall. It was quite hard with no crowd and no-one around, he said. With the marathon rescheduled as a virtual event on October 4, Rowe became a double marathoner, running on the official day along with thousands of others around the world, all with their run tracked using the official London Marathon app. This time he ran from Awa Awa Rata Reserve at the foot of Mt Hutt, to home base. Both marathons were completed in less than four

hours. “The idea was to come downhill and I didn’t want to run my original route as that would have been against the nor’wester for half the distance. When I passed through Methven people were outside the Blue Pub clapping and cheering, and that put a bit of a skip in the run for a while.” And closer to home his family drove alongside to cheer him on. The last 100 metres of the race were made even more special when son Freddie and niece Arabella, helped him run across the finish line. Two days down the track, Rowe’s running shoes are still sitting at the back door. His number one priority is a massage, but he’s not counting out adding a few Kiwi runs to his marathon tally in the future. “I’d like to do some more running events, but I’m not sure Pip is so happy with the idea because of the time commitment. and I’d love to go back and do the London Marathon properly but I can’t leave that too long.” After weeks of being the farm’s volunteer calf rearer, Rowe said his family is looking forward to living and working in Christchurch. Rowe’s marathon effort raised 1400 pounds for Mericap, a charity for people with learning Johnny Rowe with son Freddie, 3, neice Arabella, 2, and son George, 10 months. difficulties. PHOTO SUPPLIED

Revamped Bite Nite deemed a hit By Jonathan Leask jonathan.l@theguardian.co.nz

A new venue and more on the menu served up a big crowd at Bite Nite Reimagined on Friday. Around 600 people attended the annual event organised by the Ashburton District Youth Council at the new location of the EA Networks Centre. “It was a fantastic event and well supported by the community,” Youth Council liaison officer Verity Jackson said. The Bite Nite was reimagined to cater to a wider audience and Jackson said it had hit the mark. There were big queues at all the food vendors and the entertainment on the main stage was well-received, she said, but adding an extra dimension this year, due to the venue change, was the sporting exhibitions. The Canterbury Futsal Dragons team dazzled onlookers with their skills, local basketballers took on members of the Canterbury Rams men’s basketball team, and Mid Canterbury Netball also got in on the action with a series of exhibition games. There were also the EA Networks inflatables which proved popular with “around 50 kids on them at any one time”. The fourth edition of the event Bite Nite Reimagined added a new dimension after moving to the EA Networks Centre and Jackson said the fifth event could likely be different again. “We haven’t done a full debrief

PHOTO EMMILY HARMER PHOTOGRAPHY yet, but all the feedback has been that the EA Networks Centre has been a good venue because we could have so many different things in different spaces.” While offering options and flexibility, it also offers a wet weather option of moving everything indoors in case of bad weather. Jackson said it was a ticketed event to cover the costs. “We don’t expect ratepayers to

cover the cost of putting on an event like this. “We did get funding out of the office of ethnic communities, through the film festival fundraiser the youth council puts on, and also through some corporate sponsorship. “It isn’t designed to make a profit, but to offset the costs.” The decision on ticket sales was also part of the planning around

operating under Covid-19 alert levels and providing contact tracing, she said. Each year youth council members use the event to raise money for a local charity by passing around a collection bucket, and this year raised $115 for the Kanuka Mid Canterbury Regeneration Trust.

Comedian Paul Ego brings in the crowds By Susan Sandys susan.s@theguardian.co.nz

Comedy producer Bec Sandys said she was “stoked” with how Paul Ego Live in Ashburton went at the weekend. Sandys said she filled about 165 seats at the Hotel Ashburton gig on Friday night, following having to postpone the event from an earlier date due to Auckland’s Covid-19 lockdown. Sandys said she initially sold out all the seats of about 250 at the initial event in August, but had to refund the tickets of people cancelling when she was forced to change the date due to Ego not being able to leave Auckland.

Nevertheless, the newly-organised night had been a huge success, with a vibrant audience responding well to not only Ego, but also herself as MC and support acts Christchurch magician and comedian Logan Kitney and local comedian Peter Livingstone. “It went so well, the feedback was really good, all the guys enjoyed themselves and it was one of my favourite audiences ever for Ashburton,” Sandys said. She was planning on organising another big comedy gig at the hotel featuring another star from the 7 Days line-up towards the start of winter next year, by which time there may be a Covid vaccine. “If Covid restrictions happen Local comedians Peter Livingstone (left) and Bec Sandys appeared again, it’s too hard to bank on,” she alongside guest artists Paul Ego and Logan Kitney on Friday night at said.

could be more changes to the evolving event for its fifth year. “The thing that determines it the most is what the youth council want.” Bite Nite was its final event for the year on the Youth Council’s calendar and with its final meeting in December, Jackson said they are fully into recruitment for next year’s council, with applications closing on December 21.

Reforms ‘unworkable’ By Heather Chalmers heather.c@theguardian.co.nz

Much of the Government’s new freshwater reforms are unworkable and have unattainable goals, says Federated Farmers’ Mid Canterbury president David Clark. “It is a shame there wasn’t more credence given to the submissions of the primary sector,” he told a Federated Farmers’ meeting on the reforms in Ashburton attended by about 400 people. The meeting was not a political event, so no representatives from political parties spoke, though some candidates were present. Federation policy advisors detailed how many of the new regulations would be costly to implement, more stringent than existing rules, and often did not achieve what the government originally intended. Fears were also expressed about whether it would be possible to renew resource consents under the new regime. Practices covered by the regulations include regular farming activities such as winter grazing of forage crops, stock exclusion from waterways, land use intensification, application of nitrogen and stocking rates. The unworkability of some of the Government requirements, as well as a range of deadlines for implementation has led to uncertainty and stress amongst farmers. Federation senior policy advisor Lionel Hume said that tough regulations were already in place for the Hinds catchment which

If the goal posts are so far ahead of us we lose the sense of engagement – David Clark - Mid Canterbury Federated Farmers

About 400 people attended a Federated Farmers’ meeting in Ashburton outlining the impacts of the Government’s freshwater reforms. PHOTO HEATHER CHALMERS had elevated nitrogen concentrations in groundwater and springfed streams. Under existing Environment Canterbury rules farmers in the Hinds water catchment must reduce their nitrate discharge by 15 per cent by 2025, 25 per cent by 2030 and 36 per cent by 2035. This was under a target of 6.9mg a litre of nitrate-nitrogen for rivers, based on 80 per cent protection of aquatic life. Under the new rules the bottom line for rivers is now 2.4mg/l,

based on 95 per cent protection. “This will be difficult, if not impossible to achieve without substantial changes in land use,” Hume said. “What happens when someone wants to renew their consent in a situation where the 2.4mg/l target is not being met?” As the new approach was national-based there was much less ability to develop and adopt catchment-specific solutions, Hume said. Clark said that the new rules

hadn’t acknowledged the journey that farmers were already on to reduce their environmental impacts. “We haven’t commented on the positive steps farmers are taking such as the fencing of waterways, precision agriculture, the move from borderdyke (flood) to centre pivot (spray) irrigation and the good management practices and technology being used to reduce environmental impacts while increasing production of food. “It was quite a purposeful thing

not to focus on that as none of that cool stuff and applied management we are doing on farm is going to get us to meet the new rules. “If the goal posts are so far ahead of us we lose the sense of engagement,” Clark said. Federation executive member and Mid Canterbury farmer Chris Allen said that farmers were facing a high hurdle for resource consents and the new regulations would be a huge cost for businesses. “I am positive about continuous improvement, but not at the step change pace that this is.” Ashburton District Mayor Neil Brown said it had asked its agriculture portfolio advisor Richard Fitzgerald for a financial report on the impacts of the new regulations in Mid Canterbury. This was expected to be available in two weeks. Mid Canterbury agricultural commentator and farmer health advocate Craig Wiggins said the regulations were putting farmers’ mental health and wellbeing back 20 years. “We can calculate a cost per hectare of these reforms but there is also a human cost.” Bob Todhunter said the rules were a nightmare for high country farmers as people didn’t understand the difference between intensive and extensive grazing. Cattle and sheep grazing also had benefits such as weed control. The National Policy Statement for Freshwater Management 2020, which aims to improve freshwater quality in a generation, came into effect on September 3.

Exorbitant costs for little reward for ECan By Heather Chalmers heather.c@theguardian.co.nz

Environment Canterbury is faced with spending $20 million to $30m of ratepayers’ money overlaying Government’s new freshwater regulations over its existing plans without making any difference to the region’s water quality, says ECan’s Mid Canterbury councillor Ian Mackenzie. Mackenzie told a Federated Farmers’ meeting in Ashburton on the impacts of the freshwater reforms that ECan had no option in implementing the new regulations which would be “hugely expensive”. The cost was equivalent to at least a 10 per cent rate rise each year for the next three years. “Every $1m that ECan spends is a 1 per cent rate rise.” In the last few years ECan had spent $50m to $60m in taxpayers’ money developing regional as well as sub-regional water plans aimed at improving water quality. ECan had submitted comprehensive submissions asking that work already done on water plans would be recognised in the regulations. In discussion documents for essential freshwater, government proposed that regional councils like ECan would be given dispensation for having

plans already in place, Mackenzie said. However, this earlier work was ignored when the regulations were released. “The fact that we have already spent $50m to $60m of ratepayers’ money has effectively been sidelined and we are being treated like any other regional council that hasn’t spent a dollar putting plans in place.” Even a “cheap and nasty” implementation of the new regulations would cost ECan $20m to $30m over the next three years. Trying to incorporate the new regulations to allow for the continuation of the sub-regional water plans would likely be even more expensive. “What is disappointing about this is that it doesn’t change the nature of the direction that Canterbury is already going in terms of improving water quality. “The additional $20m to $30m cost won’t make any difference to water quality in the next five to 10 years as this is a long journey. “I don’t hear anyone questioning the need to improve the environment, it is the pace of change and its implementation that is being debated.” The four ECan councillors at the Ashburton meeting – Mackenzie, John Sunckell, Peter Scott and Megan Hands – had all argued this point at its last coun-

PHOTO HEATHER CHALMERS cil meeting, Mackenzie said. ECan had to adopt any rules which were more stringent than its existing policies, such as those to fence waterways to exclude stock. A new set of priorities for decision-making under Te Mana o te Wai was “hugely significant”. This required regional councils to give the highest priority to the health and wellbeing of water and water bodies, followed by the health needs of people, before thirdly considering cul-

tural, social and economic wellbeing. This would require any consents to have a beneficial effect on water quality. “I don’t know how we can do any urban development under these new rules,” Mackenzie said. ECan was in discussions with South Island iwi Ngai Tahu and individual runanga about how to define Te Mana o te Wai and how this would translate into water regulations.

ECan South Canterbury councillor and deputy chair Peter Scott said the regional council didn’t have the money to implement the regulations. “We are proud of where we have got to in Canterbury and to waste $60m of taxpayers’ money is ridiculous. “Our farm environmental plans are a real joint effort between farmers, ECan and auditors and to have this thrown out for a national strategy really gets on my wick,” Scott said.

Muddy good fun Fraser Hyde and Michael Duncan navigate the course at Mud and Steel on Saturday. PHOTOS HEATHER MACKENZIE

By Jonathan Leask jonathan.l@theguardian.co.nz

It was more dust than mud, but the racers still thrilled the crowds at the Mud and Steel event on Saturday. “We had to call it dust and steel nearly,” 4X4 Events course director Rick Crosbie said. “It was quite dry so the complete opposite to last year.” Held at Carneys Road in Alford Forest, the spectators were treated to some hard and fast action on the course from the 16 competi-

tors, which included three from the North Island. After last year’s mud bath, a run of dry weather meant this year’s event was a lot drier, but the drivers still managed to find some mud during the course of the day’s racing. As well as the conditions, the course had some major changes with some more technical legs added into the mix as the drivers raced the clock. “Rather than just brute horsepower and wheels spinning, they actually had to think about what they were doing.

“This year we also gave them a second attempt so they could go back with a different mindset,” Crosbie said. Methven Lions spokesman, Mac McElwain, said they had a limited build up due to the changing Covid-19 alert levels and didn’t know what to expect in terms of a crowd turnout. They had that many people that the Lions barbecue crew was worked overtime selling out twice, McElwain said, having to send out fresh supplies at midday after running out of everything. “The turnout was surprising

given that we had no promotion or time to set it up because of the Covid levels. “There would have been around 300 people up there.” It all resulted in the Lions raising over $5000 which he said will go to the Methven Charitable Trust to distribute in the community. Mud and Steel will be back again, “for the next 10 years in the first weekend of October”, Crosbie said, and 4X4 Events will be back at the same location for an endurance event on November 8. As for the Methven Lions they are going from rough and tum-

ble vehicles coated in mud to one that their owners will go to great lengths to keep spotless with its inaugural Methven Motorshow on November 14. For its show and shine event, McElwain said they had already received several registrations, but were waiting to get Mud and Steel out of the way before fully focusing on the motorshow. “We have know idea how successful it’s going to be, but I am kind of worried it will get too big too soon, although if that happens we will find a way to cope with it,” McElwain said.

Disgraced lawyer imprisoned Disgraced lawyer Lindsay Boyd Gribben could not look his victims in the face as they told him the effect of his offending. The 66-year-old former Waiarapa lawyer earlier pleaded guilty to nine charges relating to theft and fraud. On Monday he was sentenced to three years and eight months prison in the Ashburton District Court. Gribben misappropriated $892,144.16 of client trust funds between April 2009 and November 2018. The defendant set up two companies, laundering funds through their bank accounts, paying his personal credit cards or personal

accounts directly from the client trust accounts. In addition he paid a company and/or individuals that were involved in the sex industry from client trust funds. Among victims were couple Janet and Avon Jolly, who were in court on Monday and individually read their victim impact statements. Janet, 70, was turned towards Gribben standing in the dock, but Gribben only looked down with his shoulders slightly hunched and facing away from her. More than $20,000 in funds she had held in trust after the sale of a property were misappropriated by Gribben.

She said Gribben had been her husband’s business partner, and she talked about how her awareness of the offending unfolded and her shock at discovering the fraud. She and her husband had known Gribben for years, and while finding him somewhat standoffish, he was pleasant. “I had no idea he was in fact a thief,” she said. Now she and her husband were dipping into their retirement savings for everyday expenses, she wondered how often she would be able to visit their only child in London, while Gribben had offered no sign of remorse. Avon said he had been a former

partner of the defendant at Major Gooding and Partners lawyers, and the fraud had affected him financially. It had caused many sleepless nights, making him wonder if he and Mrs Jolly would lose their house or have to sell it. He initially was alerted of Gribben acting inappropriately with client funds in 2012, whereupon he contacted the New Zealand Law Society, but an audit did not reveal any fraud. To then hear in 2018 of the fraud allegations was a bitter pill. “I have felt a deep sense of broken trust at the actions of the offender.” Judge Tom Gilbert delivered the

Car confiscated, detention Others to appear in front of Judge Gilbert on Monday. Rowan Bradley Kennedy drove to buy groceries the day after being suspended from driving for 28 days for speeding. An appeal from lawyer Roz Burnside in the court for the 25-year-old to retain his 1998 Subaru failed, as Judge Gilbert did not believe confiscating the vehicle would cause extreme hardship. Burnside said the defendant had recently moved into his own flat, and had mental health challenges in the form of Asperger’s and was soon to restart his seasonal job. His father wanted to sell the car so Kennedy would have money to buy essentials for his flat such as a refrigerator, couch and washing machine. “I think the legislation exists to try and remove vehicles from people like you for a very good reason,” Judge Gilbert said before issuing the confiscation order. It was Kennedy’s fifth similar offence. His Honour also sentenced Kennedy to four months’ community detention. Kaya Monyaka Leigh Shannon Reuben was remanded for sentencing to November 16. The 31-year-old farm hand pleaded guilty to two charges of failure to answer court bail, one charge of taking or using a card

off her, threw it on the ground causing it to break, and slapped and punched her in the face. She suffered swelling to her nose and around her eye. Mana Terare Tuakoi pleaded guilty to wilful damage and was remanded for sentence to November 30. The summary of facts stated that shortly after midnight on June 25, the 24-year-old threw a large driftwood garden decoration through the window of the complainant’s car parked on her front lawn. He then repeated the act with a second piece of wood, breaking a second window. The defendant had an ongoing disagreement with the complainant’s partner, and there was an incident prior where a pushbike was extensively dam-

sentence of three years and eight months on each charge. But His Honour first of all left Gribben in no two minds as to the effect of his offending. He said it was premeditated with a degree of sophistication. The law society had had to pay out over half a million dollars to help address some of the wrong committed by Gribben, now an undischarged bankrupt. This meant every lawyer in New Zealand had effectively helped bail the offender out. “It’s fair to say Mr Gribben you have caused an awful lot of harm, and you have disgraced not just yourself but the profession.”

A dad got home from work about 6.30pm on June 11 and got angry at his children for going into his workshop and leaving tools out. His five-year-old son ran to his bedroom, followed by the defendant who picked the boy up and carried him back to the lounge and went to put him down. The boy fell forward and the defendant kneed him in the backside. The boy was upset and crying but there were no injuries. Judge Gilbert told the defendant, who had name suppression to protect the identity of the victim, that he was clearly hard working and contributed to the community. The family had been ripped apart and he had seen little of his children since the incident. “I am satisfied you have learned your lesson and you understand violence isn’t the way forward for these sorts of things,” His Honour said, convicting and discharging the defendant. He was granted permanent name suppression to protect the identity of the victim.

“If you can kick that addiction you could go onto lead a decent life,” Judge Tom Gilbert told Darryl Leonard Connor in the Ashburton District Court on Monday. The 44-year-old was sentenced to 12 months’ imprisonment with leave to apply for home detention to a residential facility, after pleading guilty to burglary of the Collegiate Squash Club. Some of the sentence had already been served due to having been in prison on remand. Connor burgled the premises twice in the same evening, the court heard. About 9.30pm on June 5 he smashed a large window and entered the building and broke into the bar taking alcohol including RTDs. He was then seen acting suspiciously nearby by a club member attending the alarm activation. The club member soon after recovered the alcohol dumped on a property nearby. Then at 1.30am on June 6, Connor returned to the club rooms with a co-offender, this time smashing another window to gain entry. He once again took alcohol and was located a short time later and arrested. Judge Gilbert told Connor he had an extensive criminal history including 14 burglaries and other dishonesty matters, with his most recent burglary last year. Much of his offending was alcohol driven. Judge Gilbert suggested Connor start rethinking his life. “It’s never too late to make some positive choices,” His Honour said.

Violence programme helps

Lachie Ashton RANGITATA Authorised by: Lachie Ashton - 60 Pattons Road, Mount Somers, Ashburton

Jan Cornelis Heuff, 56, found a stopping violence programme had helped him address issues he brought to relationships, his lawyer told the court. The self-employed mechanical engineer attended the programme leading up to his sentencing in the Ashburton District Court on Monday. Judge Tom Gilbert sentenced Heuff to three months’ community detention, six months’ supervision and ordered him to pay $1000 reparation after he pleaded guilty to assault on a person in a family relationship. On the evening of October 15 last year the victim was at the defendant’s address in Rakaia and the couple were lying beside each other in bed. The defendant took off his shirt and talked about being a lone wolf and being asked to join gangs, which intimidated

the victim, with whom he had been in an on-again-off-again relationship for about 15 months. The defendant pulled the complainant forward so she was doubled over at the waist with her chest on her knees, and punched her in the back repeatedly. He walked away but came back and leaned on top of her, putting his stomach on her head and his weight on her, causing difficulty breathing and pain in her neck. The defendant walked away but said he wasn’t finished yet, however, the complainant managed to contact a friend who picked her up and she contacted police. Judge Gilbert noted prior convictions 13 and 18 years ago, but there were mitigating factors such as the defendant’s guilty plea and the fact he had attended the stopping violence programme.

OUR VIEW

Looking past the roadblock for a solution By Matt Markham matt.m@theguardian.co.nz

aybe we could all take a leaf out of the book of Johnny Rowe. 2020 has been a year that most of us would like to forget up to now, and if we’re being completely honest – no-one seems to be holding out much hope for the remaining few months either. It’s push forward to 2021. We have had to face our fair share of adversity. But facing adversity and rising above it and finding another solution is what makes us as people, and refusing to do something, just because it’s too hard, or in Johnny’s case impossible, isn’t always the answer. When Johnny’s London Marathon dream was pulled out from underneath him, he could have easily stepped back and rested on his laurels and accepted it as being over. But no, he kept pushing forward and changed his way of thinking and made it work. It’s truly awesome stuff. Right now, it’s about going outside of the comfort zone and doing something that strays away from the normal. An event might not be held, but that doesn’t mean it’s completely over and you can’t enjoy the actual crux of what it was. And we’re starting to see more and more of that as we deal with the fall-out from Covid-19. Sure, we might not have an A&P Show here in Ashburton this year, but that’s not stopping a group of passionate people from holding their events in a different way. Being adaptable and willing to step away from the tried and true is fast becoming the norm in this crazy little chapter of life. There are hundreds of other examples we could use of Kiwi folk making it work and it’s an example we should all be setting for ourselves as we try and get through to the end of this year and hopefully onto a much more settled and normal way of life. Instead of just seeing a roadblock in front of you, it’s a case of taking the opportunity to look around and see if there’s another way you can get to the other side. Often you’ll be surprised at just how easy it still is.

OPINION 11

The frustrations of Government’s backtracking T

here are immeasurable benefits to a government hearing from an array of voices, experiences, and perspectives, particularly when drafting laws with wide-ranging repercussions. As the coalition Government has discovered, there’s also a price to pay when you selectively choose only the voices you want to listen to, and largely disregard those with differing views. As an example, the ink was barely dry on the government’s newly released Essential Freshwater regulations when troubles with implementing the package became clear. This was despite the exact issues being voiced loudly and clearly by the farming sector throughout the submission process. Ironically, in the weeks immediately following the release of the regulations, both Ministers David Parker and Damien O’Connor dismissed concerns raised by Federated Farmers and others with “of course they would say that” type responses. However, as the frustrations around the workability of key aspects of the regulations became louder, it also became clearer that what might be workable for a farmer Minister Parker had once visited, on the day he had visited, didn’t mean it could be workable for all farmers, all the time. Changes were hastily made, first to the definitions around intensive winter grazing, and then came acknowledgements that the regulatory map for stock exclusion ‘low slope’ land was inaccurate and would need fixing. The most critical backtrack came in an interview with Minister O’Connor published on September 11, 2020, where he acknowledged that the regulations would need to be “tweaked” to accommodate regional differences in weather and other factors. Frustratingly, throughout the interview, Minister O’Connor

quoted the very points Federated Farmers had been making throughout the submission process. If only he had listened to those points at the time they were being raised. The minister also acknowledged that the regulations would put more costs on to ratepayers and councils. Importantly, he also acknowledged that “highly prescriptive rules such as those around pugging in pastures would probably need adjusting to fit different circumstances.” The Government has now taken the view that other flaws or unworkable aspects of the regulations can be addressed through implementation guidance provided to councils. But that raises real legal uncertainty, given the critical importance of the wording used within legal instruments. In short, these are clarifications that would not have been needed if the regulations had been through a better process. Similar back-tracking has occurred around the conversion of

Ministers Damien O’Connor and David Parker both ignored farmer input on the Essential Freshwater regulations and have had to since backtrack and acknowledge that farmers’original input was correct. created by the carbon price, the billion trees scheme and the rising regulatory pressures forced onto farmers, had led to it become twice as profitable for

Currently, the distortions

government thought were ‘right at the time’ ultimately had been too blunt an instrument. The knock-on social and economic impacts had become clear, as had the increased pest management and fire risks. Changes to those regulations will also now need to be made. None of the above matters would have been a surprise to the government had they listened to the sectors most impacted before finalising them. We’d rather the government get its regulations right up front, than scramble to fix them after they’re finalised. In the meantime, farmers and rural communities have to deal with the uncertainty and concern resulting from the regulations, not knowing what’s on the agenda to be ‘fixed’ next, and what investments and changes are

worth making. Whatever form the government takes post-election, we urge more open consultation and collaboration, particularly with those most impacted. We want the next Government to get New Zealand back on track, not put out unworkable regulations that subsequently need back-tracked, derailing the country from the path it needs to be on.

Battling to improve levels of mental health care I have made no secret of the fact that my main motivation for becoming an MP is to improve the level of care for people in New Zealand who are battling mental health issues. I started out working in the front lines of mental health in New Zealand and over in London, before moving into the management side of mental health work. It is why I was so pleased that on Monday, alongside our party’s health spokesperson Dr Shane Reti, we were able to announce our standalone mental health policy that will deliver for everyone. Mental health is just as important as physical health. One in five Kiwis experience a mental health disorder at some point in their lives, and nearly nine per cent of adults expe-

rience psychological distress every month. The impact of Covid-19 has exacerbated this with more New Zealanders struggling with unemployment and an economic recession. I have the honour of being the party’s first mental health spokesperson, and we would establish New Zealand’s first Minister for Mental Health to drive our mental health strategy. We would strengthen our frontline with a primary care navigator in every general prac-

tice and implement a ‘national stepped care approach’ for commissioning and delivering services to provide a joined up and integrated network of mental health services. We would establish a $10 million mental health support package for small and medium businesses where mental health has been identified as a concern and fund life-saving mental wellbeing and suicide prevention workshops in our rural communities. A commitment would be made to a nationwide ‘Zero Suicides’ comprehensive multi-sector suicide prevention strategy. We would invest in a $10 million contestable fund to establish free psychological first aid training and require schools to deliver a skills based mental

health and resilience training programme from Years 1 to 13. These are just some of the changes National will deliver that will improve our mental health outcomes for generations to come. National will also provide short term relief in light of Covid-19, by urgently funding 100,000 free counselling sessions. This term of Parliament saw the first ever cross-party Mental Health and Addiction Wellbeing Group formed which I worked hard to initiate. The Zero Suicide Aotearoa report, which was funded by Southern Cross and prepared for Parliament’s cross-party Mental Health and Addiction Wellbeing Group, was released this month. The document was a bold re-

port which called on all parties in New Zealand’s Parliament to work together to reduce suicide. The report identified a number of at risk groups, including Maori, Pasifika, young people, working-age men, men over age 85, the rainbow community and farming-related suicide. I believe politics is about timing, and I feel that the time has come for politicians to work together to respond to the growing demand for mental health services in New Zealand.

Support for Hinds wetland

Lowcliffe farmer Angus McKenzie is restoring Wairuna Lagoon, historically the mouth of the Hinds River. PHOTO HEATHER CHALMERS

By Heather Chalmers heather.c@theguardian.co.nz

A coastal wetland being restored by Lowcliffe farmers Angus and Gemma McKenzie was historically the mouth to the Hinds River. The Wairuna Lagoon is one of 15 wetlands in Canterbury being given support as part of a NZ Landcare Trust-led project encouraging farmers to consider wetlands on their properties as an asset to their farming system, the environment and the wider community. Angus McKenzie, a mixed livestock and cropping farmer, told a field day that they had

R O F

been working to restore the wetland for the last four years. A drain which fed into the wetland wound its way through the farm before flowing into the sea. As the drain was currently lined with willows, a key part of the project was to replant with natives for biodiversity, particularly to encourage birds and bees, McKenzie said. Environment Canterbury councillor and project chairman Ian Mackenzie said that willows were originally planted to control erosion when drains were in flood. Floods were heightened by run-off from borderdyke (flood) irrigation and the drop in altitude on the plains.

“Part of the challenge of replanting will be to contain that erosion without willows.” As farmers on the MHV Water scheme had converted from borderdyke to spray irrigation this may reduce the risk of flash flooding, Mackenzie said. ECan biodiversity officer Jason Butt said the site was an example of a donga, which were eroded areas along the coastal cliffs. This was caused by streams as well as leakage and springs from the original Hinds swamp. While many dongas retain their physical presence, only a relatively small number retain remnant indigenous habitats. The headland would have

E L SA

been about 100 metres further out to sea when the “Black Maps” were drawn in 1860. “So there has been a lot of action around here and will continue to be.” Drawn during a survey of Canterbury in the mid to late 19th century, the Black Maps show the extent of wetlands and the locations of rivers and streams before they were modified. Encroachment from the sea was an ongoing threat, causing “coastal squeeze” on wetlands along the Canterbury Bight. “This coastal squeeze is pushing the sand and shingle bar further back into the lagoon,” Butt said.

Further M. bovis cases By Heather Chalmers heather.c@theguardian.co.nz

A third Mid Canterbury dairy farm will be confirmed as infected with cattle disease mycoplasma bovis this week, says M. bovis director Stuart Anderson. All three dairy farms were detected by August bulk tank milk screening. This brings to four the total number of active confirmed properties in Mid Canterbury, with the fourth being a beef farm identified earlier. The rest of New Zealand remains clear of active cases. Eight properties connected to the three newly confirmed infected properties are under a Notice of Direction (NOD), which restricts cattle movements while further testing is carried out. Anderson said the new cases were not an indication of a widespread outbreak in Mid Canterbury. While September milk screening had identified five farms requiring further on-farm investigation, none of these were in the Ashburton District. The M. bovis programme expected to see the number of infected properties increase over spring. “This is when we have the most samples to test, and is the time that cows are under the most stress from calving. This year we also have 2018-born animals on the milking platform for the first time. “Given we’re only three years into a 10year programme, we know we are going to have further properties under movement controls or confirmed infected. We continue to make improvements, refine processes and work hard to ensure the appropriate support is available to affected farmers,” Anderson said. Nationally 249 cases have been cleared of the disease, with the number of active confirmed cases dwindling to only one before this latest outbreak. M. bovis was first detected in New Zealand in July, 2017. Since then 158,203 cattle have been culled and $176.7 million paid in compensation to farmers nationally. Meanwhile, the Rural Support Trust has organised international motivational speaker Tony Christiansen to speak at events throughout the South Island in November, including the Hinds Hall on Monday, November 16. Christiansen lost his legs when he was nine as the result of a train accident; he has achieved incredible feats in his life and will share his story and his secrets to success. He encourages audiences to set their own challenges, rather than accept limitations.

Local shortlisted for prestigious award By Heather Chalmers heather.c@theguardian.co.nz

Ashburton farm enterprise consultant Genevieve Steven is one of four New Zealand young professionals to be shortlisted for a prestigious trans-Tasman agricultural award. The Zanda McDonald Award, in its seventh year, recognises talented and passionate young professionals working in agriculture. Finalists are selected for their passion for the industry, strong leadership skills, and the contributions they’re making in the primary sector. Steven said she applied for the award after being encouraged by a previous finalist. Growing up on a sheep, beef, deer and cropping farm at Pleasant Point, Steven, aged 26, has a BAgSci degree from Lincoln University. “By my late teens I realised that agriculture was the pathway for me.” Initially she worked in the agribusiness team of Anzco, based at its Seafield processing plant, before her current job with KPMG in Ashburton. In her role she provides financial management and business strategy support to family farming businesses in Canterbury and Otago. She also acts as a facilitator for four Action Network Groups for livestock farmers, funded through the Red Meat Profit Partnership. Three of the groups are in Mid Canterbury with another in North Canterbury. “It’s about making improvements on farm to lift profitability, productivity and sustainability. “The aim is to connect farmers together with the expertise and support they need to help them make changes in their farming business.

“I’m providing a space for people to hear about new ideas, to try them and share their findings.”. The groups of seven to nine farm businesses participate in a series of field days, workshops and study tours. Outside of work, Steven is involved with Hakatere Ceramics, plays netball and is chairperson of Mid Canterbury Young Professionals. The other three finalists from New Zealand are Jenna Smith, 34, chief executive of Pouarua Farms in the Hauraki Plains, Sam Vivian-Greer, 31, a farm consultant at Baker Ag in Masterton, and Becks Smith, 33, director of The Whole Story and a veterinarian at VetEnt in Ranfurly. Earlier this year West Coast dairy operations manager Jack Raharuhi was named the 2020 award winner.

In an award first, the Zanda McDonald Award will crown not one, but two winners – one from each side of the Tasman – in 2021. The change for 2021 comes as a result of Covid-19 restrictions, which prevents the award judges from being able to interview the usual shortlist of six together in one place, to determine the overall winner for Australasia. Richard Rains, award chairman and member of the Platinum Primary Produc-

ers (PPP) – the Australasian networking group supporting the award – said the judges felt it was important to adapt the award to fit the current climate, since the interviews would need to take place separately in Australia and New Zealand. “As judges, we’ve been blown away by the talent and capabilities of this year’s applicants, and to maintain the integrity of the award, we want to continue interviewing the shortlist face-to-face if we can. “So this year, our Kiwi judges will select a New Zealand winner, and our Aussie judges will select an Australian winner, through face-to-face interviews when domestic travel allows. It will provide the best outcome for our finalists, who can spend time with the judges during the interview process, and also means we can invest in the future of two winners, and help with their future career and personal development, for the wider benefit of the agriculture sector,” Rains said. The Australian and the New Zealand winner will each pick up a personal development package, including a fully personalised mentoring trip in Australia and New Zealand (when travel allows), up to $10,000 worth of tailored education or training, media coaching, and an all-expenses paid trip to the 2021 PPP Conference. Interviews will take place over the coming months, and the winners will be announced in March 2021, and will be invited to attend the PPP Conference in Christchurch.

LONGBEACH CHALLENGE

Entries extended for 2002 Longbeach Challenge

Local knowledge works the oracle The locals were in the money on the Allenton Bowling Green on the weekend for the annual Todd Cup. A full green of players took the Allenton turf for the tournament on Saturday with quality action across the day. Local knowledge proved to be the key to success, with Len Luke skipping his side to victory at the end of the day’s play. He was joined by Raylene Heads, Faye McKnight and Barry Molloy as the quartet claimed the overall honours. Rosemary Bennett’s side finished second, while Graeme Bishop led his team into third in an all Allenton-skipped top three. It is a busy bowling week ahead with tournaments from tomorrow through to Sunday when the triangular representative fixtures will be held between Mid Canterbury, South Canterbury and Canterbury Country.

All Stars’ shock entries Morrison team ready for Methven this weekend

By Matt Markham matt.m@theguardian.co.nz

Two of the biggest names in harness racing leading into next month’s New Zealand Trotting Cup will make a surprise stop-off at Methven this weekend for the Methven Cup. Mark Purdon and Natalie Rasmussen’s elite pacers, Self Assured and Spankem were both surprise nominations for the Group Three feature on the grass when nominations were released earlier in the week, joining 11 other hopeful aspirants. The current favourite for the

New Zealand Cup on the second Tuesday in November, Self Assured’s inclusion in the race was the biggest shock of all after his effortless victory in last Friday night’s Canterbury Classic where Spankem ran second. It’s a major coup for the Methven Trotting Club getting the two horses to the meeting, but seeing the All Stars colours on the track is no rare thing, with the stable having won seven of the last 10 editions of the race. Other notable starters for the race include the up-andcoming Di Caprio, who will be handled by former local John Morrison, as well as Nandolo,

Vintage Cheddar and Tango Tara. Morrison will be hoping for a good day on the grass track, and his own team of horses look primed for action after some handy performances at Saturday’s Mt Hutt workouts on the track. Most impressive were maiden pacer Harrison and open class trotter, Smokey Mac – although he won’t be in at Methven. “At this stage he’ll go straight into the Ashburton Trotters’

Early bird entries for the hugely popular Longbeach Challenge have been extended to the end of this week. Organisers announced on Monday that they were excited to extend their Early Bird Entry until Sunday, October 11 – allowing would-be competitors an extra opportunity to save on entry fees and to gain further entries to win a retreat for two to the Intrepid Pods in Te Wepu. With so many sporting and community events having to be cancelled, the Longbeach Coastal Challenge Committee are grateful to be back in Level 1, and are focused on delivering another successful event, on Sunday November 29, with some exciting changes to the course. “If you’ve been a regular runner, walker or mountain biker at the event, you’ll be excited to know that over the past few months there has been some tractor work, ensuring new additions which will enhance the challenge,” chairman, Matt Galbraith, said. With eight different categories and distances to compete in, whether it be walking, running or biking – there’s no shortage of options available for the annual event.

Flying Mile,” Morrison said. “He’s come back nicely, I’m happy with where he is at. “Harrison is a bit of a big dumb bugger, but he can run a bit and his run was excellent, so I’d expect a good performance from him.” Close to 80 horses ran around at the workouts, with Morrison’s two impressive performers also joined by the Leo O’Reilly trained Shadow Minister and the Daniel Reardon trained Daggy Lamb also registering handy victories.

Whistle blows on successful season

NETBALL

It may have been a shorter than usual season, but Mid Canterbury netball umpires have still made the most of every opportunity they’ve been given in 2020. By the time the winter netball season came to an end, more than 20 Mid Canterbury netball umpires had earned themselves a well-deserved pat on the back, by taking the next step in their umpiring. It began before a whistle had even been blown. During the Covid-19 lockdown, Netball New Zealand still ran online theory exams for umpires, and four from Mid Canterbury made the most of that opportunity. Ashlein Lyttle, Olivia Pearce, and Gianna Butler all sat and passed their Zone Theory, while Willow Diedricks sat and passed her New Zealand Theory. That was before a centre pass was even thrown, and when the

Ashlein Lyttle became the first ever recipient of the new Rhodes Trophy for Mid Canterbury Netball’s most improved umpire/umpire coach. season eventually did get under way, the success kept on coming. Lyttle well and truly made the most of the Covid-shortened season, by following up her Zone Theory pass, by also passing her Zone Practical, an impressive achievement. At Centre level, Georgia Blundell, Claudia Thomas, and Jess Bleach all passed their Centre Practical, which saw them all make the step up from umpiring on a Saturday afternoon, to a Thursday night. All three made their Thursday night umpiring debut in the premier 3 grade. Some of Mid Canterbury’s newest umpires are also rewarded by being presented with a Pre Centre award when they reach a certain level, which indicates they’re heading in the direction of a potential Centre Practical award in the future.

This year, a number of Pre Centres were handed out by Mid Canterbury’s team of umpire coaches and umpire coach assessors, with Malana Ngametua, Natalie Shaw, Bryony Digby, Aimee Cosgrove, Ciara Ross, Juliet Campbell, Bella Casey-Solly, Elyse McCallum, Emily Watson, Leah Reid, Leah Maw, Sabrina Cassineri, Piper O’Malley, Bill’e O’Brien, and Sophie Gibson the recipients. Lyttle was also the first ever recipient of the new Rhodes Trophy for Mid Canterbury Netball’s most improved umpire/ umpire coach. Georgia Blundell was presented the Leath Cup for an umpire achieving at centre level, while her sister Charlotte Blundell was received the Donalda Mitchell Trophy, awarded to an umpire who regularly umpires at junior level and is always helpful when

it comes to filling in and assisting with other duties at junior netball. The Leech Cup, for a senior umpire achieving at regional and/or NZ level, went to Kevin Opele. He was one of the umpires who controlled this year’s ACL premier 1 final along with Natalie Corbett. Mid Canterbury Netball centre manager Erin Tasker said each and every one of Mid Canterbury’s umpires should be proud of their achievements this season. Umpires were a vital part of any game, and Tasker said Mid Canterbury was lucky to have a good core group of umpires, but they could always do with more. “Many of our umpires are players, too, but that doesn’t have to be the case. “Take Ashlein’s dad, Heath Lyttle, for example – he was a dad watching his daughter play netball, and now he’s one of our top umpires locally,” Tasker said.

MINITALL

Miniball getting back on court A lift of Covid restrictions has cleared the floor for the return of local miniball competitions over the next fortnight. Basketball Mid Canterbury has confirmed three age-grade levels will start from next week at the EA Networks Centre. The programme, however, has been forced to cut back with competitions to be run over a period of eight weeks. Year 5 and 6 pupils are set to be the first unleashed on court, with games beginning Friday week. Beginning on October 19 will be Year 3 pupils at Oxford Street Stadium, with Year 4s starting the following day at the EA Networks Centre. “A shortened season is better than no season and it’s all about the family going along watching the kids play,” a BBMC spokesperson said, in a Facebook post. BBMC also announced the start of women’s grade basketball, which begins on October 20 which will run for a minimum of seven weeks.

CYCLING

Front-running tactics prove victorious Tom Turner made his trip across the Rakaia River worth his while after taking victory in the Tinwald Cycling Club’s ACL: Small Business Accounting 32km handicap event around the Wakanui Beach block on Sunday. Riding off the front mark, Turner kept the chasing bunches at bay to secure the major spoils. Ed Hobson found the line strongly to secure second place from Penny Costello, who rounded out a good day taking third place. Scratch marker Michael Templeton claimed fastest time honours, riding the distance in a solid 44.14. Co-markers Tony Ward and Brad Hudson secured second and third time respectively. The juniors and division 2 contested a 16km handicap event. Ryan Gallagher showed a clean pair of heels in the final kick to the line to lift the winner’s cup. Sarah Gould showed plenty of spirit to secure second place. Sarah’s big brother Daniel stormed home to step up to the final podium position. Charlotte Neal and Jack Templeton took

fourth and fifth places. Sixth place-getter Maddi Lowry rode the course in 29.08 to claim fastest time honours. Janette Hooper led home the division 2

riders in a close finish to claim the victory and fastest time honours. Andy and Debbie Skinner filled the final two podium spots.

Next week the club will contest a 38km handicap event around the Wakanui– Hakatere course, with registration on Wilsons Road.

CROQUET

Big day out on Waireka courts It was a hive of activity at Waireka at the weekend as dozens from around the South Island took to the courts, mallet in hand. A total of 64 players enjoyed splendid Ashburton conditions on Sunday for the Jeff Marshall Golf Croquet handicap doubles at the Waireka Croquet Club. There were some hard-fought duels on the green. The honours were shared in block one, with the pairing of Brian Goodwin and Tom Pluck completing 30 hoops all square with Diane Verdock and Beryl Magnliss as both duos came first equal. Sylvia McFarland and Sue Whyte took out block two with 31 hoops. Second spot was also highly competitive in the second block as three teams (Junelle Edmonds and Joyce Davis, Phyllis Reith and Shirley Abraham, Sue Lamb and Shirley Lindroos) all finished on 29 hoops. Alongside the red-clad Waireka hometown heroes, there were representatives from Allenton, Cashmere, Hornby, Oamaru’s Awamoa Gardens, Aorangi, West End, Timaru’s Ashbury and Geraldine.

Sticks and skills

After a lengthy hiatus, Mid Canterbury Hockey’s (MCH) 2020 Academy Programme resumed at the NBS Turf at the weekend. The first of three remaining clinics were held on Sunday and split across four different sessions throughout the day. The latest hit-out focused on tackling and elimination. The remaining sessions will be occurring this coming Sunday and again on October 18. The programme had been running earlier on in the year before classes were postponed due to lockdown.

Slammin’ with the Rams Members of the Canterbury Rams NBL team touched down in Ashburton at the weekend, where dozens of future basketball stars got up and personal with some of their favourite Mainland stars. Six of the squad, alongside head coach Mick Downer, ran two coaching sessions at the EA Networks Centre on Saturday, where youngsters were taken through games and drills which focused on ball handling, shooting, finishing and gameplay. The clinics were a great opportunity for young basketballers to interact with their favourite Rams players, and for some to get a taste of the sport for the first time, a Rams spokesman said. Positioning himself for a shot during the clinic is Daniel Ditmar as Rams players Max Darling (left) and Ben Carlile-Smith look on.

Allenton Bowling Club

Club Championships are underway with strong entries in every section, draws are up, dates to be played by, now all we need is everyone to get the job done. There should be closely contested games in both Men and Ladies sections. It has been another busy week at the club. Tuesday was a miserable cold day with only a few braving the elements. Our Marjorie showed us the way, donning another layer of clothes, and challenged us all to join her. The hardy did, and the rest of us found an urgent job in the club house! It was Allenton’s turn to host the Friday Triples and a good number of teams enjoyed a great afternoon of bowls. Winners were; R Bennett, G Clarke M Buchanan 3wins 20 ends and a massive 50 points. 2nd. A Crawford R Ford B Molloy 3wins 17 ends 45 points 3rd. J Smart J Ryk A McKenzie 3 wins 17 ends 37points 4th. D Kinvig T Watson D Prendergast 3wins 16 ends 23 points 5th. B Hopwood F McKnight C Harrison 3 wins 15 ends 26 points. (I think the organisers took pity on us and invented a fifth prize) appreciated anyway. The Todd Cup was held on Saturday, our sponsors for this day were Skip to it flooring and we thank them. The day started with a minutes silence in respect for one of our older members Riki Shearer who passed away during the week. Being fours we all fitted onto the grass green and it made for a great atmosphere. Len Luke’s team came out the winner with Raylene Heads F McKnight and Barry Molloy helping him out. 2nd. R Bennett M Quinn N Atkinson S Doig 3rd. G Bishop A Crawford W Lloyd A Sargisson 4th. M Anderson M Hill J Kewish A McKenzie. Another very enjoyable week on the greens.

Ashburton Bowling Club

Another busy week has passed and it started, as I suggested in last week’s report, being more than just “nippy”. Ashburton ladies played a pre-season drawn fours day on Tuesday, won by Diana King’s team, and the wind chill factor must have been minus 50!! Fortunately playing conditions for the remainder of the week improved greatly and therefore, has been very enjoyable. Ashburton Ladies Championship Triples began on Thursday, and matches will continue on this coming Tuesday and Thursday, starting at 9.30 am. At Friday Triples at Allenton on the 2nd, coming 3rd with 3 wins, 17 ends, 37 points were Ashburton’s J Smart, J Ryk, A MacKenzie, and 4th with 3 wins, 16 ends, 23 points were Ashburton’s D Prendergast, D Kinvig, T Watson. Saturday’s Rollover Triples results were 1st - R Herriott, M Watson, M Patterson with 2 wins, 10 ends, 20 points and 2nd – T Watson, A Gibbs with 2 wins, 10 ends, 17 points. The Todd Cup Fours at Allenton, also on Saturday, resulted in 4th place going to Ashburton’s M Anderson, M Hill, J Kewish, A MacKenzie. Here’s hoping for more warmth and sunshine. Good bowling everyone!

Ashburton Golf Club

Another lovely weekend brought the crowds down to the Brandon. On Saturday we had round 1 of the DCL Cup which is a 2 stroke rounds game this year, with round 2 this coming Saturday. Jumping out to an early lead were Grant Hastie and Stewey Dunlop who both snaffled themselves nett 68s. Close behind with 69’s are Hoppy, John Dudley and Paul Baird. We will see if any of them can kick on again this week to take the prize, or will someone swoop in from out of the clouds to steal it. The RMF Silva cup is getting tight at the top after 6 rounds. Steve McCloy still leads on 37 points 1 clear of Blair Snowball and 2 clear of Lefty. We have 2 more rounds of qualifying, which are this coming Saturday and the 31st. We will then do a top 30 cut, re allocate the points and have a 2 game final series, to see who can pick up the trophy and a club sub for next year, thanks to our great friend at RMF Silva. Make sure you don’t miss a game as every point could be vital. On Sunday we held the annual County Stroke day, where we invite teams from our lovely neighbours Rakaia, Tinwald,

Jim Alison and Derek Prebble, who received a Melvin Jones recognition for their services to Lions and the Community at the 40th celebrations of the The Ashburton Pakeke Lions Club. Methven and Mayfield, who then come along and humiliate us on our own course. Winners of the day were Rakaia’s Sally Smith who picked up the Ladies top score. Tinwald’s Ray Wards took the mens. They both led the way for their teams as Rakaia took the Ladies team prize and Tinwald took the mens. Then the overall Mayor’s trophy team prize went to Rakaia. Well done to everyone involved. This Thursday we have the Lions charity day at Ashburton, this is always a good fun day with great prizes and it raises lots of money for super charities. Come along and join in. Terry is still taking names for the away day bus trip on Saturday 17th. There is no organised golf on that day due to the Ladies South Island champs, so come and join the fun in our mystery trip. Everyone is invited, men, ladies and other club members, all welcome. Just give Terry a shout or put your name on the sheet in the club house. Catch you around the course, good golfing.

Ashburton MSA Golf Section

Members of the section travelled to Temuka last Sunday to play on their beautiful course. There were some good scores with Steve Thomas leading the way with 41 stableford points followed by Janice Dunlop on 39, with Jacqui Beardsley and Sake taking out third prize with 36 stablefords. Nearest to the pins prizes went to Bruce Sampson and Darren Peace.

Good luck to the ladies competing in the South Island Champs at Alexandra at Labour Weekend.

Simon Shuker’s Code Cracker

Your Stars ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): You know what to do. Sure, you’re scared. It’s pretty simple actually, and though it might take 30 words to say this, it all boils down to three – you’ve got this. TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): What is the difference between a burden and a crutch? How you use it. The actual item (habit, person) could be the same in either case, but your use of it will make all the difference. GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): The distractions could get expensive and are best avoided entirely. You have a sense of where you’re supposed to be, and it’s a productive day so long as you stick to your course. CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): Someone loves you. For this person, it’s like you’re there even when you’re not because your influence is constantly considered. Does knowing this make you a little more careful with your input? LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): The cardinal typically lives three years in the wild and can survive decades in captivity. As for you, bright bursts of happiness, over in seconds, will be remembered for years. VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): It is possible to improve almost anything, and it’s done through the development of your senses. Senses get keener with experience. Awareness opens up with each new experience. LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): There’s a time for pure fun and a time to feel the gravity that keeps us from flying off the face of the planet. Sure, it causes things we don’t like – falls, sagging, teardrops... and yet, no gravity means no life. SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): Bad manners are often just a lack of training. You will not be sorry for displaying tolerance and reserving judgment until you really understand the person and the factors at play. SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): Be aware of what you make important with your focus and time. You don’t have to agree to the same reality other people are experiencing. See it differently and, like magic, it is different. CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): People who present differently from the majority of a group is showing up will be met with misunderstanding, fear or scepticism. Not by you though. You’re fascinated and will learn more because of it. AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): Sagittarius has a talent for not only accepting the differences of others but also seeking diversity where possible – a talent that’s made possible by an overflowing well of that much-needed attitude: tolerance. PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): There’s something about your life that seems to hinge on having a certain conversation. Probably, you’ve been avoiding this, but you no longer should. Today is the day to try and have it.

MIDWEEK SPORT

KICKING ON By Adam Burns

adam.b@theguardian.co.nz

After a season of trials and tribulations on the park, Charlie Brown will again be one to watch once the rugby season restarts. The 17-year-old was a markedly accomplished presence at the back this season for Mid Canterbury Combined, despite having limited opportunities throughout a tough UC campaign. The positive thing is, Combined is set to have the services of the talented custodian again next season. Quick off the mark and a savvy attacker with ball in hand, he has also cemented himself as a capable goalkicker.

The Mount Hutt College Year 12 pupil has been immersed in rugby for most of his life growing up in Methven. Coming from a strong rugby family, his formative rugby experiences would regularly involve future Crusaders midfielder Dallas McLeod, who Brown continues to look up to. “He’s like a bigger brother to me,” Brown said. “I’ve grown up my whole life playing rugby in the backyard with him.” Although his preferred position was fullback, a heavy injury toll among his Spartans team-mates meant he was occasionally forced to fill the void out of position. Despite this, Brown said it was a great learning curve.

“It was a great experience getting to learn all the different positions, especially in the UC Championship, because it’s a great place to be playing. “It was challenging to figure them out, but it was good once you got the hang of it.” Injuries was just one of a few things that a young Combined team had to contend with this season. The young side faced bigger, experienced and well-resourced Christchurch schools most weeks during a gruelling campaign. Although the Combined boys did not get the results on the scoreboard this season, Brown was happy with how his game was evolving. He added the team showed

massive improvement throughout the season. “We started off with low expectations of ourselves,” he said. “After we started playing those big games and playing well against the likes of Christ’s College and STAC, we kept getting better and better from then on.” Goalkicking is also a significant part of his arsenal, and it was at the centre of the pinnacle moment of the Spartans season. Brown’s injury time penalty – 5 metres in from touch – clinched a 13-12 win for Combined over Roncalli-Aoraki Combined in Timaru during their UC Championship clash back in July, in what was the Mid Cantabrians’ first win in three years. “It was pretty nerve-wrack-

ing at the time,” he said. “It was an unreal experience to see it go through, it was just crazy for the whole team.” His cousin Sam Ree was the other recognised goalkicker in the Combined side that day, however the responsibility was left to Brown. “He saw me walk over to the penalty and he let me take it because he knew I had the desire to do it for the team.” Brown will return to Mount Hutt College next year, however was zeroing in on a stab at the Crusaders Junior Knights development squad, following in the footsteps of McLeod and cousin Josh Ree. “That’s a goal I’ve been looking forward to for a very long time.”
