In-Depth Information
Other sports in which NZ punches above its weight include sailing, rowing, canoeing,
equestrian, cycling and triathlon. The most Olympic medals NZ has won have been in ath-
letics, particularly in track and field events. Cricket is the established summer team sport,
and the Black Caps national team enjoyed some good results over India and the West In-
dies in early 2014.
If you truly want to discover the good, the bad and the ugly of the national psyche, the
sporting field isn't a bad place to start.
NZ is defined as a state in the Australian constitution. At the time of Australia's federation into one coun-
try it was hoped that NZ would join. On this side of the Tasman that idea proved as unpopular then as it
does now.
