Want to break a Guinness World Record?
Hi neighbours,
The Graeme Dingle Foundation is trying to break the Guinness World Record for the highest number of consecutive rugby passes.
One person, one pass. And you have only five seconds to pass the ball to the next person 5 metres away.
No pressure, right?
If you're keen to be involved the event will be held at Hamilton's Waikato Stadium on Wednesday, November 30. They need 350 passes to beat the current record.
To sign up and for more information, go to the Pass It On for Waikato Kids Facebook page.
You must be over 14 years of age to participate.
What: Guiness World Record attempt – consecutive rugby passes
When: Wednesday, November 30, 2016
Where: Waikato Stadium
Time: From 3pm, with the attempt at 5pm

So we want to hear what you think:

59.8% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.9% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
