Sport in New Zealand : ウィキペディア英語版 | Sport in New Zealand
Sport in New Zealand largely reflects its British colonial heritage, with some of the most popular sports being rugby union, cricket, and netball which are primarily played in Commonwealth countries. New Zealand is a small nation but has enjoyed success in many sports, notably rugby union (considered the national sport), rugby league, cricket (considered the national summer sport), America's Cup sailing, world championship and Olympics events and motorsport and softball. Other popular sports include netball, basketball, golf, tennis, rowing, and a variety of water sports, particularly sailing and surf sports. Winter sports such as skiing and snowboarding are also popular as are indoor and outdoor bowls. ==Governance== Sport New Zealand is the main government agency responsible for governing sport and recreation in New Zealand. It was established in 2003 by the Sport and Recreation New Zealand Act 2002, consolidating three agencies into one, and was known as Sport and Recreation New Zealand (SPARC) until February 2012. Sport New Zealand is accountable to the government through the Minister of Sport and Recreation (, this is Murray McCully). High Performance Sport New Zealand (HPSNZ) is the main agency for investing money allocated to it from the Government budget to national sporting bodies and athletes for high-performance sport. HPSNZ's funding cycle is aligned with the Olympic cycle, with the current funding cycle culminating in the 2016 Summer Olympics. Sports receiving targeted funding for the 2013–16 cycle are bike/cycling, rowing and yachting in Tier 1; athletics, equestrian, men's rugby sevens and netball in Tier 2; canoeing, triathlon and women's hockey, Paralympics and Winter Olympics in Tier 3.
