Four Wairarapa athletes will be part of the New Zealand team contesting the Oceania track and field championships at Papeete, Tahiti, from June 3-5.
Sian Chapman, Emma Kruszona, Katie Smith and Simone Small will contest a series of events against opposition from Australia, Papua New Guinea, New Caledonia, French Polynesia, Samoa, Fiji, Kiribati, Indonesia, Vanuatu and Nauru.
The Kiwi contingent will encompass 51 athletes and five management or coaching staff, making it the biggest New Zealand squad to participate in the championships since they were held in Auckland in the 1990s.
Last year New Zealand won 35 gold medals, 15 silver and seven bronze when the championships were held in Cairns, Australia.
