ACC Paralympics New Zealand Open Day - Saturday, Christchurch

Communications Manager from Paralympics New Zealand

South Islanders will get their first opportunity to attend an ACC New Zealand Paralympics New Zealand Open Day, when the series comes to Cowles Stadium, Christchurch on Saturday (10am to 3pm).
Come along and meet five of NZ’s Rio 2016 Paralympians at the event. Triple Paralympian, Para sailor Andrew May (Atlanta 1996, Sydney 2000 and Rio 2016) will return for the event in his home town and will be joined by double bronze medallist, 17-year-old sprint sensation William Stedman and Rio 2016 debutant, javelin thrower Caitlin Dore. This Cantabrian trio will be accompanied by Rio 2016 silver and bronze medallists, tandem Para cycling pairing of Emma Foy from Dargaville and Laura Thompson from the Catlins.
The Open Days have been developed and jointly staged with our major partner ACC. The Open Days are designed to increase interest and participation in community sport activities run by Parafeds, National Sports Organisations and disability sport organisations. It also gives us the opportunity to spot talent that could move into a pathway focussed on developing future Paralympians
