HB AUTUMN TRIPLES
The HB Autumn Triples is the club's flagship annual open Petanque tournament played in May each year. 2024's event attracted a strong field of contestants from around the North Island clubs and as far as Christchurch. Amongst the teams there where this year’s national champions, previous national title holders and also international representatives which led to another fantastic competition.
90 games played on the Saturday and on the final day 70 games are played to decide all the prizes. There was, this year, a slight change to the format. On Saturday the terrains were allocated so no team played on the same terrain twice that day while on the Sunday, everyone drew a number for the terrain to play on. This was a new initiative for allocating the terrains in pool play.
