🏆 HALBERG GAMES 2026.. WHAT A WEEKEND! 🏆

What an incredible weekend for our young athletes from Mid Canterbury and South Canterbury, who came together as part of the Aoraki Region team at the Halberg Games! 💙

We are so proud of every single athlete who competed, supported one another, and gave it their all across the track, field, pool and sidelines. Your determination, teamwork and positivity were truly inspiring! 🔥

A special congratulations to our individual award winners:

⭐ Ava Lyall — MVP
⭐ Finn Tregurtha-Nairn — Most Promising Para-Athlete

And a huge congratulations to our Aoraki Region team for taking home the Spirit of the Games award! 🏆💙

A massive thank you to Tarryn, Jono, and all the amazing support crews, parents, whānau, volunteers and everyone who got behind our athletes and helped make the weekend so special. 🙌

You all did us proud! 💙🔥🏆

Some people are just quietly legendary and if you know Ruby, you’ll know exactly what we mean. 🌟

Ruby is the kind of gal who fearlessly gives everything a go, and we’re incredibly grateful that she took the time to sit down with Arlo and share a little of her Halberg Foundation Games story with us.

Through Ruby’s experience, we hope to help spread the word about the Halberg Games and, more importantly, the importance of creating genuine opportunities for tamariki and rangatahi with disabilities to experience, enjoy and belong in sport.

Because every child deserves the chance to find a sport they love, challenge themselves, make friends and experience the joy of being active.

A huge thank you to Ruby for sharing her time, her experience and a little piece of her story with us. You’re a bit of a legend, Ruby! 👑
