What kinds of sport can you do in New Zealand?

Answer 1

New Zealand has very similar high school sports as neighbouring nations such as Australia and Fiji. The most commonly played sports are of course cricket, rugby, Australian rules football, footie, basketball, swimming, tennis, golf, and Track and Field. In recent years this has been expanding as many schools have programs for surfing, windsurfing, kiteboarding, street luge, racketball, and Skateboarding. In the southern regions tree climbing, beach voleyball, speed skating, and beach basketball have become more and more prominent. In the central and northern regions of the country, sheep wrangling, ice hockey, boxcar racing, and coin flipping (also known as flap-jacking) have gained popularity in recent years.
