New Zealand's Rebecca Petch, in action at the 2018 UCI BMX World Championships, will be able to compete in the Oceania Championships on her home track at Te Awamutu next year.
Te Awamutu will host the 2019 Oceania BMX Championship in January, the only continental championships to be staged on this side of the Tasman next year.
New Zealand last hosted the Oceania BMX title at Pukekohe in 2016, and it is the first time the championship will be staged in
Te Awamutu.
The event will take place at a celebration for cycling in the Waikato, with Cambridge hosting the Tissot UCI Track World Cup over the same weekend, and the UCI New Zealand Cycle Classic in the region from January 23-27.
"The Te Awamutu club has been a hotbed for the sport and has staged a number of outstanding BMX events in recent years," said Cycling New Zealand CEO Andrew Matheson.
"It will be a fantastic celebration of high performance sport in the Waikato with the Track World Cup on at the same weekend, and to be followed by the New Zealand Cycle Classic."
