Ngā mihi nui ki a koutou katoa - thank you all for your time, dedication and hard work for your club, paddlers and whānau for the 2025 Waka Ama National Sprint Championships. Without the paddlers, coaches, managers, parents, supporters, sponsors, drivers and volunteers, the event would not have been able to happen! Our sport is lucky to have so many passionate and giving people involved that helped to make last weeks event the biggest yet! We are keen for your feedback on the National Sprints, please take a few minutes to complete the survey.
