Show Notes

The New Zealand Olympic Committee are welcoming the flexibility that comes with potentially hosting the Commonwealth Games in 2034. 

They've declared an expression of interest to bring the event to the country for the first time since 1990 in Auckland, with the recent scaling back of the event making it a more attractive proposition. 

NZOC CEO Nicki Nicol told Piney it would be a fantastic opportunity, not just for the athletes, but also for the fans and the country. 

“I can remember 1990 and how it lifted the country.”
