2. 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.
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

3. Alpine climbing as a recreational activity was taken up in
the early days of European settlement and tramping
became popular with the widespread use of motor
vehicles. From the 1950s tracks, huts and bridges were
built in the forested areas of New Zealand to allow easy
access for hunters to cull the introduced deer which had
become a threat to the biodiversity of New Zealand. As
tramping became popular these facilities were
increasingly used by trampers. In later years tramping has
become popular for both local and foreign tourists.
Tramping clubs were formed in many towns, cities and
universities with regular trips being organised. The clubs
sometimes own a bus to transport club members to the
tracks.

4. Canoeing is a paddle sport in which you kneel or sit facing forward in
an open-decked canoe, and propel yourself with a single-bladed
paddle, under your own power. Kayaking is a similar activity in a
kayak which usually has a closed deck and is propelled with a double
bladed paddle. In a kayak the paddler typically sits with legs extended
forward.[1]
In some situations canoeing refers to both canoeing and kayaking.
Other than by the minimum competition specifications (typically length
and width (beam) and seating arrangement it is difficult to
differentiate most competition canoes from the equivalent competition
kayaks. The most common difference is that competition kayaks are
always seated and paddled with a double-bladed paddle, and
competition canoes are generally kneeled and paddled with a single-
bladed paddle. Exceptions include Canoe Marathon (in both European
and American competitive forms) and sprint (high kneeling position).
The most traditional and early canoes did not have seats, the paddlers
merely knelt on the bottom of the boat. Recreational canoes and
kayaks employ seats and whitewater rodeo and surf variants
increasingly employ the use of 'saddles' to give greater boat control
under extreme conditions.
