Helping rangatahi athletes in Waitaha break through barriers, build confidence and step into their potential.
We back young sportspeople with the right people, guidance and opportunities around them, so talent is not limited by circumstance.
Tātai Whetū Waitaha opens doors for young sportspeople who may not otherwise access the support around high performance sport. Through mentoring, coaching, education and community connection, we help rangatahi grow as athletes, leaders and people.
We grow the next generation of leaders through sport.
Tātai Whetū Waitaha uses sport as the starting point for something bigger: confidence, connection, leadership and a stronger sense of possibility for young people across Waitaha Canterbury.
Don’t hear it from us
With the right support around her, Lucy has found her way back to loving being on her bike. Her vulnerability, tenacity and willingness to keep going are all hers. But it shows what becomes possible when athletes have a place, a team and a programme built to support the person, not just the performance.
We could tell you more. But it means more coming from Lucy herself.
