History in the Making 1966 Oceania Team

Left Mick Yarrow.Wgton. deceased.     ?    Onno Boelee,Alk.Ted Lonergan,Alk Dave Delay,Wgton. Mike Tipene.Alk [deceased]
 G.Anderson.  Graeme Roberts,Wgton Ray Longergan [manager] Alk. Pat Toner[captain]Wgton. Adam Linning.Dunedin.
Members of the above successful team played a very part in he making of N.Z. judo and the formation of the present judo federation.
It is no coincidence that the majority above were successful in business as well as judo , becoming property tycoons, dentists,bank managers,and ceo's of national companies.
It is a great pity that in the past and including the present that judo NZ refuses to recognize the pasted contribution to judo that these x judoka made.
