Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Despite a dip in delegate headcounts Hamilton’s Claudelands events centre insists it’s going gangbusters, securing repeat bookings and taking business off other main centres.⁠

On Monday, in response to Waikato Times queries, the city council said that in June-August 2023 there were 9588 delegates attending business events at Claudelands, and 8829 in the same period this year.⁠

Chiefs resist rushing Damian McKenzie back for Super Rugby Pacific final

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The Chiefs are keeping Damian McKenzie on ice, with coach Jono Gibbes resisting the temptation to throw his star playmaker straight back into the fray against the Crusaders in Hamilton on Saturday night.

Having sat out the opening two rounds of the Super Rugby Pacific season on paternity leave following the birth of his first child, son, Louie, in the first week of February, McKenzie has re-joined the franchise for training this week.
