Team talk

Chad had hockey in Tauranga (Mt Maunganui) today. I love that the turf is right by the huge salt piles. Interestingly, somewhere in all that salt is a hockey ball that was deflected from a stick during the game... will be a bit hard to shake that out of the salt shaker! It was a great game - very close 1-1 at half time and our guys won 2-1.

Wow...that's a dramatic contrast.

Probably a few hockey balls amongst the salt pile.. bit hard on the grinders .. well done to Chad and team..

What an interesting location for a hockey field, is it water turf? Saline perhaps:) I don't think I'd want to go hunting for the ball in that!

I've never known salt mountains like this! Almost looks like huge mountains snow covered (not found in Mt Manganui)!

[Kitty Hawke]

Goodness that is a huge mountain of salt......wherever does it all go to ?

[Joan Robillard]
