MainPower Stadium

North Canterbury Basketball is kicking off their Thursday night basketball programme tonight at MainPower Stadium and NC Sport’s Positive Sports Advisor, Abbey, is happy to promote the benefits of positive sideline behaviour, giving voice to young referees, officials and coaches when they volunteer for sport. Thanks to Anna and Hamish from NCBA for partnering with NC Sports on this worthwhile campaign. Want to know more? Abbey will be out and about on the sideline for both Thursday and Friday night basketball in terms 3 and 4 - just look for the purple bib!

With the warmer days ahead, remember that Coldstream Tennis Club is open for business!🎾
