Pucker Up For A Winter Sports Night

It’s getting a bit chilly on Hyundai Code with a winter sports special this week headlined by two international ice hockey superstars dropping in for a chat in the lead up to the USA versus Canada fixtures in Auckland this week.

The two team captains, Canadian Kyle Quincey and American Rob Schremp, are joining the boys and Jenny-May on the show this Thursday from 8.30pm. Their two teams are about to face off in a three game international series at Auckland’s Vectar Arena this week.

Keeping with the winter wonderland theme, also on the Hyundai Code couch this week is former New Zealand skier Simon Wi Rutene and New Zealand women’s ice hockey player Casey Redman. Karl Te Nana and Wairangi Koopu get up to some mischief in Queenstown where they are checking out the winter festival.

We are also announcing the winner of the trip for two to Las Vegas, courtesy of Grab-a-seat, and watch this week to find out how to be in for a chance to win some Rip Curl mountain gear and ice hockey merchandise.

Hamilton-based reggae band NRG Rising, fronted by Sistah B (Benita Tahuri) and her two daughters Honey and Anahera, will be singing some sweet rhythmic tunes alongside hip hop dance crew AYDC, also from Waikato, who are off to the world hip hop championships in Las Vegas next week.
