Kubota trial continues for 2014/15 season

Friday, 25 July 2014

Surf Life Saving New Zealand is pleased to announce it is once again running the Kubota Trial Programme which will allow two clubs to reap the benefit of the loan of a new 4-wheel drive utility vehicle.

In the 2012/13 season, Surf Life Saving New Zealand worked with the support of Kubota in the trial of two side-by-side Kubota vehicles in Raglan and Papamoa. In the 2013/14 season, Pauanui SLSC in Coromandel and North Beach SLSC in Christchurch were selected as the lucky recipients of the trial.

Clubs are once again being offered the chance to trial an RTV1140 to help in their efforts to save lives on the beach in the 2014/15 season. One club will be selected in the North Island and one from the South Island.

Applications are now open. For more information and to download an application form, please visit the Kubota page on the SLSNZ website.

Applications close at 5pm on Friday August 22.

Kubota New Zealand is also working with SLSNZ by providing great rates and trialling Utility  Vehicles to clubs at various test sites around New Zealand.
