Church land earmarked for housing

Habitat for Humanity general manager Nick Clarke says talks are in the early stages and have been “exploring different possi bilities” but, ultimately, it’s down to the church to decide if the project goes ahead. The non-profit organisation re sponds to housing need either through affordable rentals or pro gressive home ownership models. “The land goes all the way behind the church down to The Devia tion. You can’t build on all of it because of flood modelling and power lines,” Nick says. “But you can build on quite a large part and make use of the rest of it with walkways, community paths and gardens or play areas.” He says it’s big enough to have a mixed development, where older people and families could live to gether.“With it being close to schools, supermarkets and the swim ming pool, it’s a site that could be something interesting.”

SARA HOLLYMAN Richmond’s original police station on the corner of Oxford St and Wensley Rd has been demolished but parts of it will live to see another day. The historic 961sqm site used to house the original jail in the garden, which was constructed out of kauri wood in 1860, costing just $80. It was subse quently moved to Washbourn Gardens for preservation a few decades ago. The police station, a weatherboard villa, was built in 1908 and was sold in 1996 for $140k and turned into three flats. The jail was then used a storage shed. Norwest Demolition and Recycled Timbers co-owner Cyrill Collier says from the day they arrived on site they had interest from the public about what was going on. One of those people was local landscap er Geoff Sherlock, who knew a bit about the history of the building and wanted to save what he could from the demo lition. Continued on page 4.

A Ministry of Inspiration philos ophy conference held last week at Waimea College saw about 85 stu dents from across the region think ing about some big topics.

Doll’s house keeps memory alive

Tutor Julie Arliss from Oxford Uni versity was the main lecturer at the conference. She has been coming to New Zealand to similar conferences in Wellington for about eight years, but this is the first held in Nelson. Cassie says it was great to hear from people from Oxford as she feels New Zealand is detached from that part of the Isobelleworld.Russell from Waimea Col lege says, when people don’t un derstand philosophical discussions a conversation can become about winning an argument. They were learning about seeing dif ferent points of view. While students didn’t interact during the lectures, Amy says there was a buzz of conversation during the “Thebreaks.students were learning how to voice their opinion, belief and thought process in an acceptable way, not getting angry,” Amy says.

Family friend Rosie Heywood heard they wanted to refurbish the doll house and offered to tin ker with it in her woodshed. “Rosie has a farm where she makes lots of cool things out of copper pipes and old wood she finds, so I can’t wait to see what she does with it.” Rosie says that Linda, also known by her grandkids as ‘Gam Gam’, wants to help too and together they have plans of keeping Kevin’s memory alive in the house for the next “Leahgeneration.andherdad used to plant lavender and roses on their farm when she was little, so we are going to use wallpaper featur ing those flowers as a personal Shetouch.”also plans to print out mini photos of Kevin and Leah’s ma ternal grandfather Brian Beattie, who passed away last year, and put them in small frames on the walls of the house. “It’s the little touches like that which will modernise the house but keep family memories alive for Leah and, subsequently, her children,” Rosie says. At present, there is no furniture for the doll’s house, but they are hopeful some will turn up in op shops they can use. “It would take forever to make all the fiddly little trinkets to put inside, but you never know what will turn up.” Leah says she is so excited to see how it turns out and can’t wait to see her kids playing with it once it’s “Daddone.would have loved to see our new farm and the doll’s house. It’s so sad that now he never will.” If you have some doll’s house fur niture that you no longer use and would like to donate to Leah’s proj ect, please email jo@waimeaweek ly.co.nz

Waimea College’s Cassie Cameron’s highlight was a lecture on ‘The Ox ford Question,’ a question asked as part of the interview process to at tend Oxford University. Cassie hopes to attend Oxford in the future and hearing how to think through the questions was helpful. “They asked us ‘can a statue move’,” Cassie Studentssays.heard how to break down the question, to look at facts and how to come up with a unique re Ministrysponse. of Inspiration chief inspi ration officer Amy Cornelisen says students learn not to be limited by their first response.

JO KENT When mum-of-two Leah Gib son stumbled across her old doll house in storage, she knew she had to get it restored to keep the memory of her critically ill father “It’salive.hugely sentimental as my parents didn’t have much money when they raised me,” she says. “My dad worked very long hours, but as I was obsessed with dolls he spent ages making me this doll’s house after work each night.” Leah now has two daughters of her own, Millie, 1, and new-born SheLacey.wants them to be able to play with the very same house she did as a “Dadchild.built it all himself and had painted little flowers and made wallpaper for it. It was truly very Sadly,special.”Leah’s dad Kevin had a stroke three years ago, aged 57, and along with her mum Linda, she’s been caring for him since. “We’ve just had to put him into a home because it’s too hard for us now. He’s lost over half of his brain, his legs, one arm and has basically zero life quality left,” Leah says. “It’s a real shame it happened to him so young because he beat cancer before this. “He wasn’t even a drinker or smoker; he was a healthy, country man - his whole life on our farm,” she Leahsays.and her fiancé Carl have re cently bought their own farm, the same as her parents did when they were newlyweds, as she wants to continue her dad’s legacy. “We’ve built a 100 per cent off the grid home, pole shed house, and we’re making sure we live stressfree lives, so we don’t end up hit with cancer and a stroke from stress like dad did.”

Fishing boats left short-staffed It’s just not fishing it’s every job; people want big money but don’t want to work for it... You want good money try work ing hard for it. Good money doesn’t come easy... Abelmarine Nelson Overfishing and low pay is the reason. It’s time to stop and let the fish stock bounce back. Stuart Cole It’s the most basic economics folks, low supply increases prices, so pay more and more people will work those jobs. Brent Schouten No more sunshine hours. The rest of NZ gets paid more than those in Nelson lower cost of living as well in Nelson would help. Dave Bro Barker Simple, tie up all boats for a month no fish, no work for truck drivers, forklift drivers, half of Port Nelson and the rest that travel home! You all honestly have no idea what the fishing industry brings to this port!

Denise Morrow Fantastic, well done John. Cheryl Brooks Thrilling return to local rugby league Whoever negotiated for the use of Jubilee Park needs to be commended. For years TRL tried to access duel use of these coun cil grounds, benefits for both codes to be had but heels were dug in and it was al ways denied for one reason or another. The struggle to find adequate playing and training grounds for all teams in past years is one of the reason it folded plus the push back from union. This is progress. So, to see a game of league on Jubilee Park was just fantastic and a sign of more to come I hope. Well done to Sam, Corey, DK and all involved. Shaz Nicholls Tasman Alliance partner Downer NZ is building a new pedestrian crossing on the road near Champion Kids Early Childhood Education Centre on Champion Rd in Richmond. The young people from the centre have been very interested in the activ ity going on in their street during the construction period, so a special site visit was arranged. The visit included a kids safety briefing, learning about the job and what the machinery does, and then the children shared stories about their parents operat ing machinery. Then it was time for a supervised pretend operation of the machinery - with the power off. Photo: TDC.

Think about the kind of people we tend to admire. Usually it is based on the size of their house or the car they drive or the money they earn or the position they hold. Or it might be based on their abilities, giftings, or accomplishments in a particular field. Think of the athletes who helped bring in New Zealand’s lat est medal haul at the wardgreatGames.CommonwealthWeshowadmirationtothem.Andrightly so, for they showed incredible athletic skill. But those are not the kind of people God esteems, or if he did, they would not be the reasons he would esteem them. Psalm 147 says, “His delight is not in the strength of the horse, nor his pleasure in the legs of a man, but the LORD takes pleasure in those who fear him, in those who hope in his steadfast love.” God finds great delight in those who fear and trust him, who know their own weakness and acknowl edge his strength, and who stand in awe of his wisdom, power and love. I don’t know about you, but I find that liberating. In a world where we are al ways feeling like we need to perform and “better ourselves” in some way, it is com forting to know that God accepts us the way we are – medal or no medal, and that what im presses him is simple faith and trust in his goodness, power and grace. Joseph Caryl puts it this way: “All the strength, beauty and ability of a man are nothing to God compared to a gracious, hon est and humble soul.” I could not have said it better.

So much marine life washes up on that specific beach, seen giant sting rays wash up there few times there as well. Kurt Johnson Second one in the past decade, I think.

Pictured are Erea Field, club president Jillian Jary and Carol Leggett with a selection of their more traditional cheese rolls and their corn and bacon rolls, which were sold for the first time and were an instant success. This year, the money raised will be donated to Grandparents Raising Grandchildren and Diabetes Youth Nelson.

The Appleby School Country Fair is one of the biggest of its kind in the region and now it’s back after two years and three cancelled attempts due to Covid restrictions. Staff and students are busy gearing up to host the first fair of the spring season in the re gion, in two weeks. Fair coordinator Tanya Snowden says it’s been a long time coming. “As a school community we’re all getting very excited for our first fair in over two years. Be hind the scenes there has been a lot of planning because there have been lots of changes to our school and also to sup porting businesses.” The fairground will look a little different this year with some new games like the inflatable pillow fight and the human fly, which have been a huge hit with the students who have al ready tried it out. “While we have lost the silent auction and farmyard this year, we will still have our old favourites like baking, coun try café, the farmer’s market, plants and face painting,” Tan ya “Thesays.kids love the lead-up to the fair, especially the day be fore when marquees start go ing up. Some of our children and their families have never experienced one of our fairs before, so it’s great to be able to get everyone involved in our biggest fundraiser again this year. It’s going to be a cracker.” The fair attracts around a thousand visitors from the re gion and raises about $40,000 for the school.

DIANNE SCOTT Isaac Walker was born 26 January 1835 in Borrowdale, England, to parents John Walker and Sarah InRichardson.1842,the family boarded the Thomas Harrison, bound for Nelson. Isaac was just eightyears-old at the time. After spending a few years in Nelson, the family went to Tāka ka where, in 1853, Isaac started working at a Motupipi coal mine, of which his father was the man ager. From this mine, coal was shipped to Australia and Wel lington. Later, Isaac turned his attention to farming pursuits. He helped to drive the first cattle overland to Greymouth and also assisted in the first shipment of livestock to the West Coast. He harvested in Marlborough as a pioneer, cutting grain with a sickle and threshing it with a flail. He travelled overland from Marl borough through the Upper Pelo rus, over the Maungatapu ranges, before there was any road there and before the murders made this region notorious. In 1855 he married Maria Coombs who bore him six children: Amy, James, Clara, Mary, Jean and Edwin. Maria died on 15 March 1870 at the home of her parents in Cam bria Street. Three years later, in 1873, he married his wife’s sister, Jane Saunders. Three years later, Isaac and his brother purchased 150 acres of farmland at Puru mahoi and later, in 1883, he ap plied for a cattle slaughter license. However, in 1899, the old house at Purumahoi burned to the ground. In 1900, Isaac’s second wife Jane died. She had been held in high esteem in the district. Isaac was a man of sterling char acter and was also much respect ed in the Puramahoi district. In the early days of the Nelson Agri cultural and Pastoral Association, he was a well-known competitor in the jumping competitions with his mare Chess, winning honours on several occasions. In 1909, Isaac’s horse threw him, breaking his arm, which must have had some impact on Isaac as he sold his farm and moved to Nelson in 1913. He was remembered as a pioneer in the most complete sense of the word. His quiet, retiring, disposi tion, uprightness, hospitality, and industry won him the esteem of all, as was amply demonstrated by the cordiality of his send off by his peers. In 1916, his son James died aged 58 at Purumahoi fol lowing an attack of measles, leav ing a widow and several children. Isaac passed away at his home in Cambria St, Nelson on 10th June 1919, aged 84, on the identical spot where his father and family originally settled on their first ar rival in Nelson.

Things will run a little differently this year, says Ray, with registration and indemnity forms to be filled out upon arrival, prior to parking. At previous rallies, you were able to see many different types of cars on display, from Hot Rods and Jaguars through to Classic 50’s vehicles. Although there can’t be a display at this year’s event, do look out for the fabulous old and new cars which will be out on the road for the rally.

They thoroughly enjoyed the experience, and it has made for some significant moments for us. There is one memory in par ticular which will stay with me forever. A young woman, 26 years old, who had undergone a double mastectomy. She came for a drive with her 8 year old son. He had wound down the old school style window and couldn’t figure out how to get it back up again as it was manual. I asked if she was ok, not too cold, and she closed her eyes and said she just wanted to feel the wind on her face. It was a very humbling moment.”

Centre Manager for Nelson Cancer Society, Mi chelle Hunt, says the team are forever grateful for the support they receive from the event. “The Nelson Vintage Car Club organisers do such an amazing job every year. They put a lot of effort in to ensure a fun day is had and we really ap preciate all of their hard work. We have 500 clients that we support every year, and 240 are newly diagnosed in the region. The funds raised help us to provide counselling services, reha bilitation, yoga and gym programmes, as well as reaching out to our clients in the rural sectors. Over half of our clients live rurally and it is important that we are able to reach those that don’t have immediate access to the care that they need.” Donations also help the team to continue supporting working families. “Around 40% of our clients are under 60 so therefore still of working age. It can be hard for them to continue to work while receiving treat ment, which puts so much extra strain on a fam ily, especially if they are the main breadwinner. Donated funds ensure we are able to help out with provisions in a range of different ways.”

for the event cost $20 and in clude a route guide and two complimen tary raffle tickets. The longest route will take around an hour and a half to complete, says Ray. Vehicles will return to the Speedway grounds upon completion of their routes, where the public can view the line-up of par ticipating vehicles for a donation. Draws for the raffle prizes will commence around 3pm. “The rally is divided into four parts”, says Ray, “Two short runs of 50km for the older, slower cars and two longer runs at roughly 80kms for the faster or more modern vehicles.” Leaving from the Speedway gates, participants will head to Richmond and start spreading out across the region to Appleby, Moutere and Gardiners Valley and Redwood Valley, cross ing over at various points along the routes. Fantastic raffle prizes are up for grabs with support from some very generous sponsors. Previous years have seen prizes ranging from spectacular gift baskets through to accommo dation, dinner and activities for three nights in beautiful Golden Bay. Raffle tickets will be available to the general public at stalls throughout Nelson and Rich mond in the lead-up to the event and or ganisers welcome any new sponsors to come on board. “In past years we have seen up to 400 vehicles with around 900 people participate, raising between $8000 and $10,000 on the day. We are always of the hope this will happen again. There will be coffee carts, food stalls and music on site so public and entrants are

1911 Overland, Lou and Evie McDowell. A Nel son car, restored and owned by Lou. encouraged to make a day of it - have lunch, do the rally and have a meal with like- minded people.” For more information on the August 21 rally, contact Rally Director Rob Thompson on 0275475120.

A group of artists from the Top of the South have donated artwork to raise funds for Ukraine. It’s personal for Tautoko Ukraine Char itable Trust chairperson Lyubov Law rence. Her son and his family live in Odessa and Lyubov says there are sirens going off a few times every day. Lyubov has given some Ukrainian cognac along with artwork from her late husband’s collection to the auction. Trust secretary Dmytro Romanenko says the money raised will be divided between three charities, with some pro viding medicine and medical supplies for those on the frontline in Ukraine. Another charity helps displaced peo ple to find accommodation, providing them with water, food, and clothing where necessary and helping rebuild The third charity provides food for peo “That’s one of the most destroyed cities, and volunteers buy, cook, and provide food for people including children and the elderly,” Dmytro says. The trust has already raised and do nated about $30,000, with $20,000 sent to the largest children’s hospital in Ukraine. Dmytro says every dollar do nated is accounted for, with all money being used to help people and no sala ries paid from donations. Local artist Marian Painter says she was happy to contribute to the exhibition. “I have total and utter sympathy for the people there and any opportunity to help raise funds is good,” she says. Along with individual contributors throughout Waimea, the Motueka art group has about 10 people donating artwork. A member says they were motivated by one of their group who is Russian and was feeling terrible about what was happening in Ukraine.

This pro gressive march included knocking out our 2ndrated side of Shane Ged des (Nathan’s dad) and Ian Ord in the quarterInfinals.the final they came up against six-time previ ous tournament winner Brent Jones and his play ing partner Rob Redgrove, 2022 South Island Mas ters champion, repre senting the Hornby Club of Canterbury. Geoff and Nathan received consid erable applause from the watching crowd when they took the first frame off this formidable pair, but the vast experience of their opposition came through in the next three frames as they complet ed a 3-1 victory. A highlight for Shane and Ian was taking out a win over the tournament No.1 seeds, Ceri Worts and Brent Simmons of the Clubs of Marlborough. Their position of fourth in the group after section play was an indication of the quality of their play and they could well have progressed much further had they not come up against against Geoff and KieronNathan.Murdoch and Dan iel Cole were our No.3 team and they had an exceptional second day, ending up 8th in their group, and then defeating another of our pairs in the first round of post-sec tion.

Pango were always able to keep their noses ahead, with an added boost of energy and output when Richmond looked like they might start to get their tails up. The fourth-and-final quarter saw much of the same, with the two teams almost inseparable through the 15 minutes of play. Richmond coach Kathleen Thor nalley says while it wasn’t the re sult they wanted. There were pos itives from the game. “Last week we had a high un forced error rate, and that was one of our work ons this week. “It was a really good game and it was probably only that second quarter that they jumped out to a lead. We had some fabulous bits that the girls had, when they got their combinations in sync.”

With North Harbour away on Saturday for the men and at home against the same oppo nents for the women, it’ll be a good chance at redemption for both teams. Both games will feature teams eager to right the wrongs of their early season after recording loss es over the weekend. The Mako had the first chance at points, with a missed penalty at tempt by Cambell Parata, before Otago made them pay with their first real attacking opportunity. Reserve back Ray Nu’u broke through a soft tackle attempt for an unconverted try before they grew their lead to eight from the boot of Cameron Millar. Cameron had a great kicking game for Otago, punishing any infraction within the Mako half with points on the board. When Tasman did have the ball and could build phases and pressure they found success, but they struggled at times with ball Theyretention.would score their first points of the game through winger Timoci Tavatavanawai, the recipient of a ranging wide ball from second five-eighth Alex Nankivell after he glided through a hole in the defensive Timociline. then earned his team a penalty that would see them draw even from the tee with the hooter sounding before the re Withstart. points already on the board, the kick-off had to be made and didn’t go 10, setting the stage for a midfield scrum to end the half. A conceded penalty by the front row gave Otago the lead going into the sheds, with Cameron slotting the ball through from Thehalfway.second half would see the teams come out and build on their scores through their kick ers, with Otago scoring two while Campbell kept Tasman in touch with one of his own. Otago would stretch their lead to 11 points with second-five Thomas Umanga-Jensen slicing through the tackle to score a fan tastic individual try. Not to be outdone, Tasman fought their way back into the Otago 22 and saw their opposi tion reduced to 14 men for re peated infractions before hooker Quentin Macdonald bulldozed it over from the back of the maul on their fourth lineout attempt. The teams would trade another series of penalties, with Tasman down by six points and unable to create a meaningful attack. They ended the game with a well-built series of phases that earnt a penalty to get them into the attacking zone, only for the lineout to be mishandled and the ball kicked into touch. Mako captain Quinten Strange says they can’t play in patches and think they’ll be successful in this competition. Tasman Mako fullback Taine Robinson in action earlier this month.

JACK MALCOLM “They do call them the poor man’s racehorse” laughs Ian Soult as he holds one of his 40-odd homing Whilepigeons.growing up in Derbyshire in England, he was first exposed to the sport as a child by someone raising pigeons down the road. He started his own flock of birds and enjoyed the hobby, but had to get rid of them when he immi grated to New Zealand in 1978. But, he couldn’t stay away and by 1995 he was back in the fold and racing pigeons all across New “OurZealand.last race with young birds in Ashburton, they were home in about 4 and a half hours. They don’t hang around. “They fly them from Kaikoura, Blenheim and Picton over to Na pier, Hastings, Gisborne and the East “TheyCape.can do that from the East Cape in about 11-or-12 hours on a good Homingday.”pigeons are trained to fly back to their home loft and carry an electronic tag that records the time on their return. Trainers release their birds at a predetermined location and wait for them to come home, before taking the tracking data to the club where an average speed calculation is done in me tres-per-minute to find the win Ianner. says it’s amazing what the an imals can do, being able to watch them fly out of the mountains and home when they come from the south, from his deck. Having moved up from Christ church just a year ago, he says they quickly learnt how to make their way back to their new home as “Thewell.old birds who were used to homing in Christchurch, there’s different methods to settle them in, it takes a couple of months.”

Ian does occasionally have birds not return home, with native fal cons providing a constant threat to the flock. He says while his pigeons are able to outmanoeuvre and outpace a falcon, they can be taken by sur prise, especially when they had just moved to the region. “I had one bird that didn’t come back one day, and then came back a year to the day later.” He says that can be one of the problems of raising pigeons, once they know where home is you can’t easily get rid of them. Just like the sport, he always seems to come back as well. His goal is to grow the Nelson club, make it more competitive and see the sport thrive. “It’s a good hobby and a good sport. . . and for kids too. “It certainly kept me out of trou “Youble. can have a stressful day at work and you go out to the birds and you forget all about it.”

The makings of a high-performance racing bird

He says his birds are treated exactly the same as any other high-performance competitor. “Pigeons are athletes. The more work you put in, the better you’re going to do. “That’s the beauty of the sport, you’re totally involved. From the feeding, breeding and genetics. . . it covers the whole spectrum of “Eighty-to-ninetysubjects.” per cent of pi geon racing and being success ful is in loft management and in trapping of the birds.”

It’s mixed emotions following another Mike Pero Nelson Giants campaign filled with the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. After topping the leaderboards for much of the season and boasting an un beaten 6-0 record going into the final week of the regular season, it was looking like this might be their year to earn another national title. Having lost two straight on the road to finish their regular season, it was an antsy wait to see how the Giants would respond to the Wouldadversity.thedefeats, which included losing their competition top spot to the Taranaki Airs in a 31-point loss, be the catalyst to motivate them into the finals or was it a case of peaking too early? With a new competition format for this year, all the games were played in Auck land over four days, with the Giants play ing the Otago Nuggets in their semi-final Withmatch-up.three players scoring all but eight of the Giants’ points, it wasn’t to be against the eventual competition winners as they lost 89-74. After a 15-year drought since their last NBL win, the players, staff and fans had been eager to etch their team’s name in the trophy once again. That 2007 campaign saw Mike Fitchett score 34 points in their semi-final before they beat Hawke’s Bay 96-83 in front of their home fans. Now in the head coach ing role, Mike had built a promising team of work horses, rising talent and star imports ahead of the 2022 season. After starting their season with a 88-69 win at home over the Otago Nuggets, the season got off to a hot start. Import Trey Mourn ing lit up the Trafalgar Centre with a seasonhigh 35 points, providing a clinic in scoring points from the post. After landing in Nelson just days before the game, the son of NBA All-star Alonzo Mourning had ar rived in style and it was all shaping up to be a block buster season with an ex citing cast of players. While other teams would work out Trey’s strengths and weaknesses as the season progressed, his ability to score points would keep the defence preoccupied and give space to his teammates to score. It would create the environment that would see captain Sam Dempster have what many have called the best season of his career. At 32 years old, Sam put up a game and season-high 29 points against the Auck land Tuatara, with nine three-pointers. to be naming sponsor of the Mike Pero Nelson Giants since 2014

. with a willingness to get in Afterthere.”Tom Ingham’s sea son was cut short before it even started, with injury - the team had to once again look to overseas tal ent to fill the big gap. In came Sam Thompson, who bolstered the team with a wealth of profes sional experience from around the world. With Jarrod and Trey around him, he was happy to take a more subdued and sup portive role in the team. His consistency was a core part of the Giants’ success, regu larly putting up respectable numbers while enabling the stars to shine bright.

In his first professional season after gradu ating from the University of Louisville, Jarrod was a core part of the team as the preferred point guard.Hewould end the season leading the league for as sists with 139, making 40 more than the second highest player, while fin ishing second on steals with 2.7 a game. His confidence to take shots from deep and the passion he wore on his sleeve made him an in stant favourite amongst the local supporters. Off the court, the team and imports also had a big impact. With commu nity a massive part of the Giants’ ethos, they were regularly spotted around town attending schools and training sessions to help grow the game. The culture that the team built was one of their keys to success, says Mike, as he reflected on the season that was. “We gelled as a team and benefitted from that. “Everyone brought into their roles really well.

2022 was a breakout season for head coach Mike Fitchett, being named coach of the year and leading the Gi ants to the SALS NBL Finals. Jarrod West was a stand-out all season and he was rewarded with a spot in the All-Star Five.

10th place with 113 compared to Auckland Tuatara’s Rob Loe with 191. After having a strong offence and watching the Wellington Saints win the 2021 title with an overpow ered defence, Mike says they wanted to be better in that area this season which they achieved. The Giants al lowed the fewest points of any team in the competition, averaging just under 81 points allowed per game. “It was a big focus for me on the offseason and in those tight games your offence comes and goes, but your de fence hangs around. “It’s just about finding that right bal Heance.”says the team will spend the next few weeks decompressing and com pleting a review process before they start looking towards 2023. “We’ll have another crack and, hope fully, we can do one, no two, better.”

The Giants also trotted out the next generation of basketballers through out the season, with several of their wins seeing some young players get experience on the court. With Jarred Burnett, Corban Mason and Ernest Kerr all getting some val uable minutes in the highly competi tive five-man team. The Giants were consistent in who they used all season, having the same starting five for 14 of their 18 games after Sam Thompson missed their first four games. One of their biggest shortfalls this season was their height, with the team often struggling to get re bounds at both ends of the court. With Trey being the preferred big man backed up by Nicolas Trathen and Jordan Schwalger, the team had issues against the bigger and more physical sides, evidenced in their semi-final loss to Otago. They would make 13 fewer rebounds than their opponents in the first half of that game, with Mike saying they were getting “killed on the boards” in an interview during the game. Trey finished the season second on the offensive rebounds leaderboard, with 57, while Sam Dempster would be the only Giant to feature on the defensive rebounds leaderboard at

Val Smith flew back into Nelson after winning two bronze medals as skip for New Zealand’s triples and fours women’s teams, to add to her silver in 2010 and bronze in She2014.was an instrumental member in beating Fiji 17-6 in the triples bronze medal match before find ing success again with her fours team against the Cook Islands, 27-6, to earn her third and fourth Commonwealth games medals. Returning home alongside her was Shannon McIlroy, who placed 10th in the singles and 13th in the pairs. Val, in her fifth Commonwealth Games appearance, didn’t have high expectations of success speaking to the Nelson App the day before she left to compete. She said the Northern Hemi sphere greens were completely different, rolling much slower than New Zealand, with the team having had a series of highly-un successful games on simulation “Wegreens.got a bit of a beating. . . but I think it was the best thing that could have happened, giving us a clear idea in our training. “The greens were tricky, but not anywhere as hard as we were ex pecting.” She says the bond that the team built through the leadup and into competition made it her favourite games to attend. “I suppose it’s for a number of reasons. I enjoyed where we were, obviously our overall per formance but also the NZ bowls team’s comradery and the feel within the team.” With four year gaps between games, she says it’s too early to tell what will happen come Vic toria 2026. “I don’t know what’s next. I’ll al low this whole experience to sink in a bit, but it’s certainly inspired me to keep going.” She also made note of how much her teammates stepped up de spite only two of them having ex perience in the Northern Hemi sphere.
