16 sports across 25 Waikato towns, facilitated by an experienced team of KiwiSport Officers, Cluster Coordinators, Leadership Development and Community Officers. This is KiwiSport! Since it began, over 12,000 young people have had an involvement in sport. The KiwiSport team have developed and delivered sport taster sessions, lunchtime/afterschool programmes and festivals in schools. The aim has always been to increase both school aged children participation numbers and the availability/accessibility of sport opportunities. Sport Waikato Chief Executive Matthew Cooper says it is fantastic to see the impact KiwiSport is having after just a short space of time. “The whole aim of KiwiSport is to get more kids involved in sport at local level at minimal cost, especially those who don’t usually participate. Our KiwiSport model is unique to our region, and with so many kids already having the opportunity to try a sport they may otherwise not have had, it’s great to see we’ve got it right,” said Mr Cooper.
