Association (Inc)
Christchurch, NZ

Team Profile:

Hillmorton High School

Aoraki welcomes this new team from Hillmorton.

They are just learning in the world of Dragon Boating, but are having a lot of fun doing so.

Hillmorton have a team of year 13 and 12 students involved. They have had a great group of Yr 13’s who have been training through the summer (2009-10), once a week on the water and in the school gym at 7am two times a week.

In the last month (Feb/March) they have managed to recruit some more paddlers to trainings and are really looking forward to racing on the water. 

A big thanks to Terry Coyle for all his coaching and Paddy O’Loughlin at Buildcrete Construction Ltd for our uniforms. .
