Winter Throw Series 3 and Olympic Trial - 29th June 2024

Results

Hi everyone

This was a really good competition . The conditions were good out of some rain before the shot put . We even had visitors from Australia ans Swiss.

Special thanks to the Auckland centre officials who managed this competition perfectly.

The main attention was on the men’s shot with Olympian Jacko GILL testing his form after several physical problems . He was quite satisfied with his 20.83m best throw .The Australian discus thrower Taryn GOLLLSCHEWSKY was not so much after throwing only 56.55m but there was no help from the wind.

Great performances were achieved by our younger throwers . The best of them was certainly 16y Fernanda TIRADO who improved her Hammer 4kg PB by 4m with a best of 49.44m which is just the best in the world for a girl born in 2009 and top 50 in the older Under 18 age group. In the process she also made a huge 600 places jump in the world senior list (from place 1704 to 1111) . To complete he day she also broke 3 times the weight hammer NHB club record improving by more than 1 metre.

The young 16y Swiss visitor Moana SCHOENBERGER was also very happy to conclude her stay in NZL with a 3m PB in the javelin at 37.37m , earning her qualification for the national champs.

Oliver CHUNG got a PB with every implement he threw and a best performance at 47.07m in the hammer and 16.03m in the weight throw.

Sina Malia SU’A had a good discus over 40m , close to her PB and her club mate Kate HALLIE at 41.47m . Both girls were a bit struggling in the shot put and not as far as usual.

Sionann MURPHY threw close to her PB in the shot and discus para Women and M45 Arno VAN der WESTHUIZEN had a good hammer performance over 51m.

Cheers DP

Winter Throws Series 2 - 9th June 2024

Results

Hi everyone

We did not have the best conditions for this winter competition: wet , slippery and light rain and this certainly discouraged a few people to come and participate. So we did not have the quantity but we certainly had the quality with some REALLY GREAT performances. The best of them was without doubt the new WORLD age group record in the girls U13 shot put 4kg by Sina Malia with 12.87m WITH THE 4kg ! Adding one more line to her world age group palmares this performance at 13y make her enter the Senior women 2024 world ranking at the 1351 th position , the 194th position in the U20 ranking that she shares with her club mate Kate HALLIE and, they also both shared the 34th position in the U18 world ranking with this implement.

The other great performer was Fernanda TIRADO in the hammer throw with a 3m PB with the senior 4kg implement at 45.21m. This is not only a new NHB club record for Under 16, but she also enters now the world 2024 ranking in 68th position for the U18 girls, 300th position for the under 20 - and even 1599th position in the seniors ranks. Fernanda also added another club record to her collection, improving her 9kg weight hammer by over one metre !

Next winter throws series is scheduled for Saturday June 29th starting at 13.00 at Millenium
