Sitting on the fence

NZ's official position from its exec is that it is sitting on the fence.

NZ will be sending teams to Durban BUT NZ also likes the idea of the CMAS games. Sure there are a few issues with the CMAS games, (only 8 teams, no juniors or masters, etc, etc) but the concept of all u/w sports getting together for a massive olympic type competition is awesome. CMAS games will be great for the promotion of our sport and for developing the sport worldwide.

As far as I know NZ have not been involved in any decisions to split from CMAS or in the setup of WAA.

I don't have a solution but I don't think splitting our sport in two is the right way to go.
