Falloon said the move was seen as a way of putting the wellbeing of mātātahi (young people) first. “In lockdown, New Zealanders reflected on the value of balance and importance of taking time out for people of all ages. “It’s easy to talk about the importance, but taking steps to promote balance and give kids a break from activity is another matter. We admire the Canterbury sports for stepping up and announcing what we believe is a first in the country.” Falloon said the organisation hoped the agreement would lead other sports around New Zealand to consider similar moves, meaning a healthier, more balanced calendar for young people.
