Taupo to Host World Junior Champs 2009

2009 FIM Junior Motocross World Championship is confirmed for Taupo on August 15-16, 2009

“It is very exciting for the club and for New Zealand as a whole. After the outstanding success of our international motocross in 2006, and the ISDE final day motocross two weeks later we are have been rewarded with the Junior World Champs. It’s awesome for the club and for New Zealand too”.

“With the region hosting a world championship event in 2009, it puts us on the world stage. I’m thrilled that we have won recognition as a club that can stage a world championship event.”

It is in partnership with the Taupo Motorcycle Club that Motorcycling New Zealand has been granted the hosting rights to the 2009 FIM Junior Motocross World Championship, regarded as a major coup for this part of the world.

But head of the FIM, the world governing body for the sport, Dr Wolfgang Srb, expressed total faith in the club and New Zealand’s governing body, Motorcycling New Zealand (MNZ).

“I am very happy that MNZ will host the most important junior motocross event in the world in Taupo,” said Dr Srb. “It is a very important step for this championship, as it will be for the first time outside of Europe. I am happy that this task was given to New Zealand.”
