WESTERN ZONE ATHLETICS CHAMPIONSHIPS

Sports Department —

On 28 February 2017 Massey High School had 30 students attend these championships.

Many had never competed on an all-weather track using starting blocks,so it was a good experience. The top two in each event automatically qualify for Auckland Champs and also some of the third placings depending on other zone results.
