Partnership with NZ Campus of Innovation & Sport

Words
Date

The New Zealand Campus of Innovation and Sport is a world class facility where professional teams, community groups, and corporate guests can train, recover, eat, sleep and meet.

Located in Upper Hutt the campus is a one stop shop for events, training camps or conferences. It boasts 18 hectares of elite facilities, playing fields, accommodation, dining, conference centre and commercial office space.

This world class training facility will now be a Champions Initiative national training base. Youth boxers from across our Champion Partner academies will come together for training camps in this outstanding high-performance facility. During these 3-day camps our athletes will have access to the Recovery Wing (sauna, hot and cold plunge pools, infra-red sauna, cryotheraphy chambers, red light therapy); the state of the art Ruruhau gym; Media Room; Analysis Bunkers; Outdoor Turf.

We look forward to sharing coverage of this partnership as our camps roll out.
