2022/23 Velvet & Hard Antler Competitions
After the majority of competitions being cancelled last season due to the ongoing Covid restrictions, we are excited for the upcoming events. Organised by local DFA branches, a lot of work goes on behind the scenes so please support them. The competitions are sure to be great events and the perfect opportunity to catch up with those you've not seen in awhile.
| Special mention goes to the Rising Stars competition, which is back after its hiatus. The Waipa Branch is organising the competition which will be held on 25th February in Te Awamutu. We encourage you to support the competition for it's continued success. |
All competitions that we are aware of have been listed below. Please click through on the event for more information. If your competition isn't listed or details need to be changed, please get in touch via cenwynn.philip@deernz.org
