Lake Karapiro will be a hive of activity this week with the 2015 Maadi Cup. The regatta is the largest schools sports event in New Zealand and one of the largest regattas in the Southern Hemisphere.
The Maadi Cup is the prize for the New Zealand Secondary Schools boys' Under 18 rowing eights but it has become the colloquial name given to the New Zealand Secondary Schools Rowing Regatta, at which the Maadi Cup is the premier event.
