"Basing our Black Ferns assembly at NZCIS has allowed us to create efficiencies throughout the days we have together as a Team. With the accommodation, fields and performance facilities all in the one space – our transition time is less, allowing us more time together to focus on “team” (from a technical/tactical perspective, but also socially). The players love the accommodation and food, and the Coaches love how easy it is to access everything we need in the high performance facility for all our trainings. The recovery facilities of hot/cold plunge pools, watt bike room and gym space are key to the team’s training. We look forward to being back!"
