Killer cats on the loose

Two abandoned cats are causing havoc in one Stoke neighbourhood, killing pet guinea pigs and rabbits and even attacking people in their own homes but it appears to be just the very tip of a huge cat problem.

Kelly Ilton says the past four months have been horrible for her and her family and she’s now too afraid to have her grandson

Andrew Board Editor

andrew@nelsonweekly.co.nz come and visit for fear he will be attacked by the two cats. Her neighbour Leigh Alderson, a guinea pig and pet rabbit breeder, has had eight baby guinea pigs killed and

eaten and one adult guinea pig that was pregnant at the time. She has also lost rabbits and has had to fence her entire section.

They feel helpless because none of the authorities are there to help, the best coming from the Nelson SPCA where they were able to hire a trap for a fortnight in an unsuccessful attempt to catch the cats.

But SPCA says the problem is much bigger

than those homeowners in Aldinga Ave are putting up with. Centre manager Donna Walzl says they took in more than 1000 cats and kittens last year alone, all of which were either abandoned, wild or strays.

“That’s an awful lot of cats and I don’t believe those figures go near the actual figure

Victory in more ways than one Victory was the buzz word for almost two thousand people at the Trafalgar Centre on Saturday night.

Victory for the twenty six local businesses people, sportspeople, a politician and others that jumped into the ring to help raise money for the Victory Boxing Club and victory for the club which has now secured premises thanks to money raised from the event.

Fight 4 Victory was dreamed up during a car ride from Christchurch to Nelson and aimed to raise awareness and money for the Victory Boxing Club which was rapidly running out of space for its almost 80 young boxers. The money raised from the night should be enough to secure the lease of a building on Vanguard St and help fit it out with equipment.

Killer cats on the loose in Stoke FROM PAGE 1 of what’s out there. We’re finding that it’s getting ridiculous and getting worse and worse and worse.”

She says colonies of wild stray cats are in areas all around Nelson, including two big ones at the Tahunanui back beach and at Cable Bay. She says SPCA has tried to trap some in the past but people destroy the traps and at $500 per trap they can’t afford to keep losing them. Donna also says pest control isn’t what the SPCA is supposed to be doing. “We can’t do it, we don’t have the resources, the staff or the time. We just can’t get into it but it is frustrating.”

The Nelson City Council has a policy on dog control but not on cat control, leaving a huge loophole where wild cats go unneutered and uncontrolled.

In Aldinga Ave the problem started when

a renter moved out of her house four months ago, leaving behind her two cats.

The hungry cats have since been sneaking into homes and eating cat food belonging to other cats and even attacking cats in those homes. Kelly says she’s been woken in the middle of the night by one of the cats attacking hers in her kitchen. “When I jumped in to help my cat, it turned on me and started to claw me until I gave it a good shove and it ran for the cat door.”

Kelly has tried to lock her cat door at night but it drives her cats mad and she says there’s been no help.

“This has been going on for four months.

We’ve contacted the council, the SPCA, police and the vet. Everyone we could think of and no one wants to know about it. We’re just left to try and live with these cats which are now feral, we can’t catch them or even get near them.”

Aldinga Ave residents Kelly Ilton, left, and Leigh Alderson are fed up with stray cats. Photo: Andrew Board.

Leigh says it’s been horrifying watching her baby guinea pigs and rabbits get snatched from her backyard and watching the adult get attacked by the cat was the worst. “He just grabbed it and took off over the fence, I tried to chase him but he was gone.”

Kelly says she’s too scared to have her infant grandson stay at her house because the cat has been aggressive to the baby grandchild of another neighbour.

Leigh says she’s been in touch with the owner of the cats via Facebook and she has shown no interest is coming to get them back. SPCA can try to prosecute her but Donna says it is difficult to prove ownership because the type of people who do this don’t register or microchip them.

Donna says she feels for the residents in Aldinga Ave and something needs to be done. “There is a massive loophole, where a lot of these cats aren’t technically considered feral, just wild strays, so they aren’t considered a pest and are not part of the pest control act. In the past we’ve probably picked up that role but we just don’t have the resources to do pest control, that’s not what we’re here for.”

TUESDAY 4 June 2013

Another huge levy increase for villagers Monthly levy fees at Waimea Village will be raised to $304.52 if the owners of the village get their way.

That’s up from $182.75 residents currently pay and almost four times the $80 they paid just three years ago.

The latest increase, announced last week by Michael and Carolyn Wright, is another “kick in the teeth” for the 172 home owners in the village say the Waimea Village Residents Committee, which was fielding media calls about it before it even had the chance to tell fellow residents.

On average, residents pay $1939 in rates on the tiny homes, pay normal insurance, power and water bills on top of the proposed new levy increase. Realistically, say the residents committee, the levy covers the mowing of lawn in the common area and the removal of green waste.

The increase is the third in as many years with each increase being disputed and taken to arbitration. Many of the residents have just finished paying a $633 lump sum from last year’s increase and residents committee chair Jerry Rowland says he has real concern for the safety of some residents.

“We are talking about the most at risk people in our community and they are in tears, on my doorstep in tears. This man has lost touch with reality. Where does he expect these people, many of whom are on a fixed pension so no way of creating more money, to come up with this extra money? It is beyond me. I don’t know what to say, we will fight him. We have to. We cannot give up in the face of a bully. We cannot, this is blatant intimidation.”

Michael Wright did not return phone messages from Nelson Weekly.

Waimea Village owners Michael and Carolyn Wright are proposing to raise the monthly levy again.

Sara Davidson Richmond

The annual rent review was given to the residents committee last week, it gives residents two options. Option one will see the levy increased to $261.48 but requires the residents to drop all court proceedings and not to dispute the levy increase with an arbitrator. Option two is to carry on with the court case but face a levy fee of $304.52 per month.

Both options include costs of up to $50,000 for a court case that hasn’t even happened.

“But these are the sort of dirty tactics we’ve come to expect of these people,” says Jerry. “They want to see us all out on the street, homeless and penniless.”

Tasman District councillor Kit Maling says the two options are basically a threat or inducement so the residents drop their court case.

“It’s hard to justify this increase when inflation has been running so low and we haven’t seen any improvement in the infrastructure. What has changed from last year to justify the increase?” he says.

Girl’s ID stolen from online photo Sinead Ogilvie Reporter

reporter@nelsonweekly.co.nz A scammer has stolen the identity of a local woman to rip off people online.

In February Nelson Weekly reported that Gemma Sampson was refused entry to some Nelson bars and nightclubs because they didn’t believe the photo on her driver’s licence was her.

That story, featuring a photo of Gemma holding her licence was published online at the Nelson Weekly website and was from there stolen by the scammer.

Two weeks ago Gemma received a call from the Blenheim police station to say there had been a dodgy deal which had involved her licence details being used.

Gemma learnt that a Blenheim resident had been demanded to see identification from someone selling a cell phone before putting money in their account. The scammer then sent a picture of Gemma’s drivers licence and the money was transferred.

Once it became clear that the seller had no intention of sending the phone after receiving the money, the person took

Local bar’s are playing their part in keeping underage drinkers out of Nelson’s nightclubs but their hardline approach is also forcing some legal customers out.

Security staff are confiscating false ID’s produced at the door of Nelson’s nightclubs, using a receipting system created by HANZ and the police to not only block entry to underage drinkers but to ensure the person cannot attempt to use the ID again. By filling out the receipt and filing it with police along with the ID, bar staff are helping police return the ID to it’s rightful owner.

Sergeant Steve Savage says the majority of false ID situations are a case of people using friends ID’s, ones they had found and even their own ID that has been modified.

“Youths presenting friends ID’s or ID that they have found is a real problem, I can get up to 6 or 7 a week and that’s only the ones that get reported. Quite a few have been lost and when they come through it means we can try to return them to their rightful owner.”

While it’s keeping out those who try to drink illegally, some legitimate drinkers are get-

This has seen one 19 year old refused entry after using legitimate identification when staff at a local nightclub decided she was not the person she said she was. After scrutinising Gemma Sampson’s identification at the door, security personnel said she was not allowed to enter the establishment and also confiscated her New Zealand drivers licence, stating she looked nothing like the photo and that she was using a fake. “When I handed my ID over the guy looked at my license and asked if I had any other form of identification. I didn’t and he then took it away.”

Despite Gemma explaining to the staff that the photo on the ID was infact her, she says there was no arguing with them.

“He said, I’m sorry if it is you, but the photo doesn’t look like you.’ Then it was gone.”

Although the episode has left Gemma feeling frustrated she says she would still go back to the bar, provided the same situation doesn’t occur. “I don’t want to go back and be embarrassed if they say it’s a fake ID or it’s not me again.”

Steve says he has encountered similar situations where legitimate ID has been confiscated but says bar staff are simply “doing it in good faith and are hot on it to avoid breaching the Sale of Liquor Act”.

Community trusts given $3.25m Three Nelson groups have benefited from a special fund aimed to help communites recover from the Canterbury earthquakes.

The Canterbury Community Trust announced last week that the Nelson School of Music will receive up to $850,000, the Bishop Suter Trust $400,000 and the Brook Waimarama Sanctuary $400,000.

Speaking on behalf of the trust, chairman Alec Neil says the regional fund is part of a one-off, $25 million special fund launched to help restore the fabric of the community and social infrastructure in Canterbury following the devastating earthquakes.

Made up of $3.25 million for Nelson, $1.74 million for Marlborough/Kaikoura and $100,000 for the Chatham Islands, the Regional Fund was established in recognition of the fact that all of the trust’s funding regions have been affected by the earthquake to some degree.

“The Regional Fund is designed to be put towards projects that support the community, strengthen significant historic buildings or assist people who have moved to these areas after the Canterbury earthquakes.”

The trust distributes funds for charitable, cultural, philanthropic and recreational benefits in four regions – Canterbury, Nelson, Marlborough and the Chatham Islands. Since it was founded in 1988 the trust has invested $55 million into Nelson and Tasman.

The Nelson School of Music will use the money for redevelopment of its historic building, and the Bishop Suter Trust will completely refurbish the iconic Suter Theatre.

Management and development of the Brook Waimarama Sanctuary, including a pest eradication programme, will also be supported.

Andrew Board Editor

andrew@nelsonweekly.co.nz

Nelson mayor Aldo Miccio says the trust’s substantial donation will support projects that play an important role in promoting the Nelson region and New Zealand as a whole.

“The Nelson City Council is extremely appreciative to the trust for its generous investment in our community, to the benefit of three very deserving organisations that have a positive effect on tourism and add significant economic value to the entire region.”

General Manager of the Nelson School of Music, Frances McElhinney, says the funding is gratefully received and the resulting upgrade will have far-reaching benefits.

Bishop Suter Trust chairman Craig Potton says the $400,000 grant will completely cover the cost of the Suter Theatre’s major refurbishment.

“The theatre is in urgent need of restoration, especially the seats.

The trust is therefore delighted with this most generous grant.”

The Brook Waimarama Sanctuary is recognised as a regionally significant project, working to create a pest-free wildlife sanctuary in a historic area of New Zealand.

“Our fundraising target is $4.7 million, and the trust’s $400,000 donation pushes us over the $3 million mark. This is a fantastic milestone, and we are thrilled.” says general manager Hudson Dodd.

Along with the special fund, the trust expects to distribute a further $18 million this financial year to hundreds of community groups in the four regions.

Huge response to Founders book fair More than 6000 bookworms attended the Founders Book Fair over the weekend, which opened its gates on Saturday to a crowd of people arriving early to browse the thousands of titles on offer.

Karen Clark, coordinator for the annual fundraiser, says opening day of the event was extremely busy with a mad rush of people arriving from the word go.

She says the book fair is growing every year and puts its success down to the great titles and selection on offer during the nine days.

Brian Parata who was at the fair stocking up on books for his son stumbled upon some “quite rare and amazing books” and was leaving with a bagful.

He says although some may think the days of buying books were numbered due to the readily available digital versions, nothing beats a book.

“Books are solid. The physical essence of a book, you just can’t get that electronically.”

The book fair is a major fundraiser for the Founders Heritage Park and will run until 4pm this Sunday.

New titles are being put out on display every day and the fair opens from 10am Aleisha Van Kerkhof, 18, with sister Rebekah, 13, at the to 4pm daily.

Motorsport park ‘on the start line’

Despite receiving the green light to go ahead with plans to build Tapawera’s $26 million motorsport park a year ago, developer Garry Adcock says the project remains in limbo pending outcomes from an ongoing Environment Court hearing.

The hold up is part of an “amicable” process that is necessary to sort out remaining issues after three appeals were lodged with the Environment Court.

The appeals to the court came after resource consent allowed planning for the park to commence in June last year.

“We are just about there, but there are still some minor issues that need to be sorted out. Our first bridge to cross is to get the resource consent free of the courts,” says Garry.

“Until we have clear permission to go ahead we have to wait it out.”

He says members of the public who are keen to see the motor sport park go ahead should know

Sinead Ogilvie Reporter

reporter@nelsonweekly.co.nz that it is getting closer to becoming a reality.

“While it is frustrating that it takes so long, that’s just the way the system works.”

He says once resource consent is free from the appeal the next step would be to organise promotional events and get in-depth design underway.

“Basically we are at the start line with the engine running, but we just can’t put it into gear yet. But it’s coming.”

Lawyer Nigel McFadden, who is representing Garry, says he is “hopeful” both parties will resolve some of the issues of concern after he submits a report to the Environment Court this Monday.

The proposed site for the motorsport park is a 205-hectare block of farm and forestry land in Rabbit Gully near Kohatu.

Victory in more ways than one FROM PAGE 1 Each fight of three rounds was met with raucous encouragement from the sell-out crowd and organiser Paul Hampton says he was ecstatic with how it went. “I’m still pinching myself really. I just couldn’t believe the scene on the night and the feedback we’ve had has been amazing.”

Fighters included local rugby and rugby league legends, four brave women, a police officer, real estate agents, an orthodontist, mayor Aldo Miccio and his mystery opponent who turned out to be Bowater Honda CEO, Chris Bowater.

Each of the fights were even, with only one knock down and several draws. But blood was spilled, with half a dozen boxers bleeding from the nose by the end of the night and MC’s Murray Leaning and Mike King kept the crowd entertained between fights.

Former New Zealand boxing champion and Warriors captain Monty Betham was also in attendance, in the corner of Scott Gibbons.

All of the fighters appeared to be exhausted but exhilarated after their fights. Aldo says he was “buggered” after his draw with Chris. “It was really tough, jeez it was tough and Chris hit hard. But it was for a great cause.”

Paul says the event was a huge success but the focus has always been on the kids and that is why he is so happy.

“All the time it was about the kids. It’s overwhelming that a little boxing group looking after kids feels like it has a whole city

behind it.”

Mike King says he’ll be back “for good”.

“I’m locked in for the next five years. I’m part of this for good. It’s one of the best events I’ve ever been a part of, it’s been awesome.”

He says the confidence the kids get from boxing is the reason he agreed to come down. “The best part for me was raising awareness for what these guys are doing.

It’s not even about boxing, it’s about changing young men’s lives. Giving them confidence, giving them respect not only for other people but for themselves and the growing confidence within them. Just by being there last night and supporting these kids they’re adding to the confidence these young kids are getting and Nelson is going to see the benefits of this in years to come.

Nelson railway station to be restored Andrew Board The region’s last railway station is set for a new lease of life, with locals saying they are happy to help restore it.

The Glenhope railway station was built in 1912 and is the last station connected with the Nelson Railway still standing in its original spot. The Department of Conservation bought it from private owners two years ago and have since worked to stop its decline and now hope to restore it to its former glory.

DOC’s John Wotherspoon says he held a meeting with around 35 local landowners and enthusiasts last weekend to talk with them about what the station would be best used for. He says some exciting ideas came out of the meeting. “It was very good, a very positive meeting and more than half of those there said they’d be happy to take part in working bees and 11 said they’d be on a steering committee.”

Other historic railway stations in New Zealand have been set up for accommodation, a café and muse-

ums, says John. “While we were there I boiled the billy for a cup of tea and people said ‘oh, café would work well,” he joked.

John says DOC bought the station and the land surrounding it because they had noticed its steady decline and part of DOC’s role is to preserve the country’s natural and historic fabric.

So far the focus has been on stopping the wildlife and weather from getting in. “The one thing that everyone agreed on was that it should be used in some form. Not just left to rot. It’s the only station left in the Nelson railway system. It’s quite special in many ways,” he says.

John says it will take some time to finish the station because it needs to be done right but it’s great that so many people are keen to be involved. “We’ve got some careful historic work to do and we want to make sure the historical integrity of the place is retained. It’s very easy to botch that work.”

Anyone keen to help in restoring the station can contact John on (03) 521 1072.

Delaying around 50 projects has helped lower the rate increase and drop projected debt levels says Nelson City Council.

Councillors worked on finalising the annual plan last week and with nearly 50 projects deferred the rate rise will be 2.1 per cent, down from the 2.4 proposed in the draft annual plan.

Also down is debt levels, but they are still predicted to rise over $100 million by the end of 2013/14.

Among the key decisions released by the council last week include an upgrade to Trafalgar Centre, funding for the Theatre Royal and Nelson School of Music, until a joint trust is established to run both facilities, and halving the amount to be spent on fixing its earthquake prone buildings to just $500,000.

executive. Mayor Aldo Miccio says it’s important the Heart of Nelson strategy is effective.

“We have to build on the competitive advantage the CBD has as an entertainment hub and boutique shopping destination. The council decided to allocate $50,000 to work with CBD stakeholders to achieve this vision.”

He says the amount of work referred was due to an unachievable amount of work on the go. “We aren’t going to make officers, elected members, or Nelson successful if we inflate the work programme and then fail to achieve it.

“This week councillors were prudent governors and signalled to officers that we want to finish what we start and meet our commitments to the community.”

The council also resolved to fund additional stormwater upgrades in the wave of April’s costly flood.

Kids ‘inspired’ by Roman exhibition Al Delaney With just a month to go, the latest exhibition at the region’s museum is attracting record numbers says its chief executive.

The Roman Machines exhibition closes on June 30 and by that time around 3000 local school students would have been through its says Nelson Provincial Museum CEO Peter Millward and he is encouraging other local families to come and see it before it’s too late.

The Roman Machines exhibition has on display thirty workable machines including a Calcatorian crane, sea odometer and water clock all being the foundation of the technology used in recent times. Museum educator John Campbell says the message they want to get through to the public is to identify the legacy of what Rome left for us and how we use it today.

The exhibition has been a huge hit among Nelson schools so far. Enner Glynn school has sent all of its students to enjoy the authentic Roman experience. Teacher Lesley Cross says the exhibition is amazing because it’s so interactive and hands on. “The students loved it, and we could have stayed there all day.”

Viewing the exhibition provides the viewer with a sense of the sheer magnitude of how big the Roman Empire was. An understating of the feats the ancients achieved is provided in an easily assessable environment. “The Nelson Provincial Museum is so well run with knowledgeable staff that provides expert information,” says Lesley.

The Roman Machines exhibition was developed in Italy by the same company that brought Da Vinci Machines to Nelson in 2007. The exhibition is open to the public and runs until June 30.

Tolerance for freedom campers A freedom camping bylaw is expected to be repealed today as complaints about the campers drop and Nelsonians become “more tolerant” of them, says Nelson City Council.

The council passed a camping bylaw but it was made inoperable when parliament passed the Freedom Camping Act 2011.

The councillor-led working party decided to drop the bylaw and focus on education, brochures and signage in an effort to create better awareness and understanding about freedom campers and the benefits they bring to the region.

The group also says there is sufficient protection under the Nelson Resource Management Plan, the Reserves Act, individual Reserve Management Plans and the Freedom Camping Act to enable the council to react to any complaint received about freedom camping, says the working party’s chair, councillor

Kate Fulton “We’ve suggested this approach for two reasons. First, we believe that there is enough legislation in place already to give the council enforcement officers the power they need to handle any issues that arise,” she says.

“Second, statistics from the last summer camping season show that we are receiving far fewer complaints. It seems that as a community we are becoming more tolerant of freedom campers and appreciate the benefit they bring to our community. At the same time it seems the education around responsible camping has been effective and the majority of our visitors are acting properly to look after our beautiful country.”

The full council will have the opportunity to discuss the suggestions and make a decision at its meeting today.

“The business teams’ passion and determination were very evident. Even though some teams missed out on the prizes and investments that were up for grabs, I am sure that all the students’ business ventures will grow and develop during the rest of this years’ YES programme.”

Waimea College students are going hard out for the hungry and caging their house captains for 24 hours is all a part of the fundraising fun.

The college has joined forces with local youth groups Ignite Youth, Thrive Youth, Detonate Youth and Encounter Youth in a bid to raise $10,000 for Bougainville, Papua New Guniea during the 40 Hour Famine from June 7-9.

Student and social coordinator Katie Talbot, 17, who plans to live as a “bogan” during the famine says the entire school will be involved in week-long events leading up to the weekend which will starts with their house captains being locked in a cage for 24 hours in the school quad.

With students taking part in mufti days, bucket collections or more unique activities such as running 40km over 40 hours, completing a 40km swim and giving up technology, the lead up will finish with the school auctioning off their head students and house captains on Friday.

“It’s great that so many Waimea students getting involved and doing the 40 hour famine in one way or another. It’s only one weekend but it can make such a huge difference. Sometimes as youth we feel like we can’t change anything because we aren’t old enough or aren’t trained but this is one way we can get involved.”

The community is invited to support the students in their fundraising efforts by getting in contact with Waimea College and coming along to one of the events.

Cheese business recreates history It’s back to basics and back in time for local business owners Karen and Daryl Trafford whose cheese made fresh from their Tapawera farm is re-hashing history out at the Grape Escape Complex in Appleby.

Wangapeka Cheese business owners Karen and Daryl were approached to retail out of the historic site last year and a few months on they have well and truly made themselves at home, selling their pasture to plate cheese products from the same spot an operational cheese factory stood 70 years ago.

Although little is known about the story behind the original 1940s cheese factory, Karen says there is a touch of nostalgia about the building, which still features the original cheese cellar that was used by the mystery business in its heyday.

“I’d love to know more of the history of the building from when it was operational as a cheese factory. It is great to keep the ambience of the place alive.”

Wangapeka Cheese has been in business for two years now, offering “farmhouse” dairy products made with milk from Karen and Daryl's farm.

The duo share a passion for nutrition and animal welfare and Karen says the history of the building along with their values goes hand in hand.

Sinead Ogilvie Reporter

reporter@nelsonweekly.co.nz “Along with our holistic approach to making cheese, it takes us back 50 to 60 years into our grandparent’s era. A lot of the principles that were valued then are the ones we are using now. It all ties in really,” she says.

Once they make a few changes to the original cellar, which needs to maintain an ambient 12 to 13 degree temperature to house cheese during the summer months, Karen and Daryl plan on bringing in other local cheese makers.

“As we progress and get a little bit bigger I would love to open up the cellar for viewing. I’d also like to bring in a lot of local cheese makers and actually be a little hub for local cheeses.”

Grape Escape complex owner Bob Haswell says he saw the potential of having Wangapeka Cheese products on site and was delighted to have Karen and Daryl bring cheese back to the premises.

“It is fantastic to have them out there, we always wanted to bring back the history and the cheese aspect to the complex. It’s great to be able to utilise the cheese safe

Bob says he hasn’t to date been able to find out a lot of the history of the original

cheese factory and would welcome any local knowledge of the story behind the site.

If anyone knows about the old factory please email editorial@nelsonweekly.co.nz.

The extension would be amazing and would do so much for Nelson. It is a city dying a slow and painful death and when the ferry terminal is moved to Clifford Bay the final nail will be placed.

But if the airport was extended to allow larger jets in and possibly international flights it would open the whole region up. Unfortunately, the old and conservative population of Nelson would be totally opposed to this as they hate change and it would probably never happen.

James Burke.

Yes, definitely disappointed! Competition would be great for Nelson.

WINTER RACE MEET Friday 7 & Sunday 9 June

Sunday will keep everyone entertained in between races with ‘Dog on a Bonnet’ performing throughout the day.

The Nelson Harness Races makes for a great day out and with a great selection of hot food and drink on offer you can happily spend the entire day at the event. There’s something to suit everyone’s taste from onsite Blinc Catering, including hot meat sammies, chips, burgers, cold drinks, hot coffee and full bar facilities, and if you get in quick there is still time to book a hospitality package, a popular option for work functions among businesses who find it hard to track everyone down over summer to attend the January event.

It wouldn’t be the races without putting something down on your favourite horse, so punters will be able to place their bets on a winner with full betting facilities available. The rush of cheering your favourite horse over the finish line is hard to beat and even if your pick comes up short you will still have a chance to win. The lucky losing ticket competition will be drawn after race 10 on both Friday and Sunday and will see three lucky race goers take home a prize.

Entry into the competition is easy, simply write your name and phone number on the back of a losing ticket and place it into the Car Company car on course – which will be by the birdcage. Friday’s Prize is a Tasman Makos family pass to three home games, and Sunday’s prize is a his or hers

Div 2 rugby comp heats up bASkETbAll: Fico Finance Nelson Giants finished the weekend off with a hard fought 91-70 win over the new boys in the league, James Blond Waitakere SuperCity Rangers. Josh Pace was the top scorer for the Giants with 26, while Erron Maxey and Brook Ruscoe both finished with 14 points.

This event is aimed promoting mountain biking in the Nelson Region, suits all levels of riders and has classes for everyone including, solo, college, teams, couples, parent and child, tandem and unicycle. Entries are only on line at www.nelsonmountainbikeclub.org. nz and close June 16.

Nelson have tackled their way into the top four of a crowded senior rugby second division with an 11-7 win over Waimea Old Boys on Saturday.

Galbraith Nelson muscled up against a bigger Waimea pack at Jubilee Park and was buoyed after withstanding several waves of attack on their try line early in the game. Captain and first five Craig Foster kicked two penalties for the visitors and Ethan Blackadder was credited with the try after a rolling maul crashed over the line.

Assistant coach Callum Payne says the team really stood up.

“The forwards made a lot of tackles, defensibly we were fantastic. They were right on our line for the final five minutes and we managed to hold them out and take the win.”

Callum says there’s a great team culture in the squad this year and they’ll need it with all but two of the teams in the second division a realistic chance at making the top four at the end of the season.

Riwaka, Takaka, Murchison, Stoke, Waimea and Huia are all fighting for top spots.

teams in the third quarter, however the honours went to Christchurch 14-12. Nelson’s tall timber, goal keep Sara Reidie, gave away a fair height advantage to her opposite, however she niggled away and was rewarded with a few rebounds and three intercepts against her name.

Diminutive Georgia Wright boxed above her weight at wing attack when she put in some intelligent feeds.

In the absence of goal defender Freya Watson (who had was backing up the weekend with her other sporting code, volleyball) Ashley Laing had a tough assignment in marking her classy goal attack, however she handled it with aplomb.

Rosa Edwards put in a sterling defensive effort in the final period – she had an intercept, a rebound and three tip balls which were converted into possession.

Deanna Hunter came off the bench in the final quarter and although she only put up two shots she could be well pleased with her efforts as her movement allowed space for Rosa to dominate the shooting.

The honours were shared in the final quarter at nine apiece to bring the score to 37-44. Coach, Robyn Leonard said she was thrilled with the improvement in her players. She said they were coming to terms with the new combinations, they had better timing through court and the defence tightened considerably.

Nelson were to play Mainland Under 23 and Selwyn Under 19 on Monday.

It was a baptism of fire for the Nelson Under 19 representative team when they met the Otago Under 19 side at the Queen’s Birthday Squad Tournament played in Christchurch.

Nelson appeared shellshocked when they came up against their southern opponents which included former Nayland College captain and Nelson rep Michaela Matenga. Nelson coach, Robyn Leonard said Michaela played exceptionally well, she had great movement and drove well onto the ball.

The 8am game meant there was plenty of time to go back, discuss and analyse and work out where they could make improvement.

The Nelson girls still looked a little tentative and had a shaky start in their encounter against Christchurch Under 19 and were down 15-8 after 15 minutes play.

Ella Marwick worked tirelessly at wing defence where she pulled in three well timed intercepts however the possession was not converted. The Nelson girls had a tendency to be stationa ry, not driving to the ball which gave the opposition room to pluck out the intercept. Generally speaking the Christchurch girls were a much taller unit and had a couple of very talented players.

In the second quarter, Nelson grew in confidence through court, with the introduction of goal shoot, Gemma Hika making an immediate impact. Goal attack, Rosa Edwards was able to switch roles which enabled her to be more a feeder.

The period belonged to Nelson as they outscored their opponents 8-6, with centre, Kaitlyn Stringer putting in a number of superb feeds from the circle edge.

The goals dropped more frequently for both

AMI Nelson Suburbs have continued their hot form with a comfortable 3-0 win over second placed Cashmere Technical on Sunday.

The win extends Suburbs lead at the top of the Mainland Premier League with eight wins, a draw and just two losses in its campaign so far.

Davi Maciel was the first to score for Suburbs with player and co-coach Ben Wright slotting the next two, the first from the penalty spot.

Ben says the team is enjoying its football at the moment and hopes they continue to strive for consistency.

"It's always good when you're winning but we can only take things one game at a time and that is working for us."

He says standouts were Neil Connell, Sean Parkes and skipper Mark Johnston.

Suburbs play Western this weekend in Christchurch.

Cocoach Dan Perrin acknowledges the importance of the next two games seeing them as vital to stay top of their pool and secure a finals position. Wanderers are looking forward to the home support on Club Day and value the community feel of the club. “The reason wanderers got back into division 1 rugby is to

give the guys in the surrounding community the opportunity to play top flight rugby in Tasman,” says Dan. Division 2 Rugby: The Wanderers Division 2 Rugby team currently sit mid table and are looking to push their way up the ladder this week when they take on Takaka at Takaka. Coach Aaron Everett admits Wanderers Division 2 have not been as dominant this season as they have in the past due to a bag of mixed results.

“We are looking to get a win this week and build our confidence back up with the goal of making the playoffs,” Aaron says. Wanderers Division 2 provide a solid feeder team for Division 1 with young players being groomed for promotion at higher levels and several of the team undergoing trials for the Nelson Under 20s team.

JAB Rugby: The youngsters are the strength of the club boasting 16 junior rugby teams ensuring a positive outlook for Wanderers senior rugby. The vision for Wanderers
