The Mike Hosking Breakfast - En podkast av Newstalk ZB - Onsdager
As always, there are winners and losers in High Performance Sport’s latest funding round. In the lead up to the LA Olympics in 2028, the organisation has allocated $163 million to 36 different sports. Rowing, yachting, athletics, cycling, and canoeing all got a funding boost, while sports like hockey, equestrian, and men’s sevens are worse off. Director Steve Tew says past performance was key when making the decision. He told Heather du Plessis-Allan they really need to hone in on the sports, athletes, and teams that are tracking towards a top eight or podium in LA.
