Kia Ora everyone

Firstly. Thanks to everyone who donated to Grudge at the Crater! An amazing outcome for an amazing cause.

This episode, we have Jesse from Christchurch with us again to talk about what is happening in their two massive leagues this year. They do things a little different down there as it makes it easier when dealing with large numbers and people who want different things from a league system.

We then discuss the upcoming Powtearoa Squad Spectacular at the end of this month. there are still spaces coaches! come and play!!

We briefly recap who won what at Grudge in Auckland and finally Trickey tells us what is happening in the Dunedin League.

So a League heavy episode which is something we should do more often.

Looking forward to seeing people in Christchurch on the 30th!!

Mānawatia a Matariki Coaches

Welcome back to another episode of Powtearoa - The New Zealand Blood Bowl Podcast!

This episode we head to our biggest city to see what is happening with our Auckland coaches. No Trickey this time as he is globetrotting. But, Welshy and Toffer are joined by Mahuika (James) and Makahli (Benjamin) from Auckland to tell us all about it.

11 Auckland coaches recently visited Hamilton for Bobsol's Matariki 7s event and we hear how they got on (though Toffer couldn't remember where the event took place). Then we discuss the Grudge at the Crater an upcoming charity 11s event in Auckland, what is happening and how to get involved in helping to raise money for the amazing I am Hope charity.

So sit back and listen as the Aucklanders tell us just how amazing things are for Blood Bowl in their neck of the woods.

Kia Ora Blood Bowl Coaches galore!

this episode we are joined by our own NAF rep Claymore who is with us to help us better understand the role of the NAF in NZ Blood Bowl. We all know what the NAF is but what role can it play in our lovely little corner of the planet?

Also Trickey returns to us from his trip to the north (everything is north of Dunedin). Did he win all the prizes at the Otautahi 7's? we shall see. Claymore was in attendance at the recent Blitz Bowl in Tauranga and brings us all the goss from this amazing tournament.

So put your headphones on, ignore your opponent as they tell you you cant use a re-roll to reroll that armour break because its time for another helping of Powtearoa the finest entirely Blood Bowl related podcast in the whole of New Zealand!

Kia Ora Blood Bowlers

Welcome back to your semi-regular update on the goings on here in Aotearoa/New Zealand

This week we have Jesse and Gil joining us with exciting news about a new tournament that is going to be happening at the end of August this year. The Powtearoa Squad Spectacular. Ausbowl fans will be aware of the format but basically its a bit like PPC but the squads don't have to be regional based and can be made up of friends and fiends from anywhere! Also there are some pretty sweet team builds available.

So sit back, put your headphones on and ignore your opponent across the table who keeps insisting it is your turn and you need to roll for kick off.

Happy gaming
