Nelson celebrated three medals at the World Manu Championships in Auckland last week.
In a stacked youth grade, Tione Haruru impressed the judges to take the gold medal, and Nātinahira and Korōria Hedley both placed second in their respective junior classes.
fledgling sport is rapidly gaining momentum among juniors and seniors alike, and Nayland Pool’s Scott White is excited for the future of the young Nelsonians.
“It’s awesome to see one gold and two silvers from our Nelson kids; they work really hard on it over summer, so it’s great to see it recognised.”
