The Mike Hosking Breakfast - En podkast av Newstalk ZB
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.
