I joined Christchurch Avon when I was 8 years old and have enjoyed it ever since. I enjoy getting to meet new people and see my mates. I joined because some of my friends and I started cross country and we already knew some people at the club. I really like getting to do a variety of different track and field events.

I have been a member of CHAV for 6 years. The club has been excellent by giving me great coaching and competition opportunities. Most of all, I have enjoyed the amazing friendships I have made through athletics.

There is a huge amount of work put in by all the coaches and people involved in the club, their positive outlook and sense of humour is always obvious. From club and interclub competitions, to national and international level competitions the club’s support will always be behind you.

I like going to Christchurch Avon because there are a lot of nice people at our club. I love that everyone is supportive and persevering and generous.

They say the All Blacks are successful because of the culture. Christchurch Avon has a similar environment and a very good management structure that involves all ages.The Club has a lot of success with the younger members who are well coached. For an older athlete it is a delight to see the young athletes enjoying themselves so much while competing.
