The world champion Black Ferns’ victory tour schedule has been released and will see the team spend 13 days exploring the nation and meeting fans in a variety of settings.

The hype around the Kiwi team snowballed throughout the six-week World Cup, fans sold out nearly every match the local side played in as the highlight plays and personalities infected the rugby public and beyond.

The initial celebrations took place the morning following the World Cup final and the Ferns have since had a well-deserved two-week break – where a number of players received their own local parades and celebrations in their respective hometowns.

The players returned home with an extra $25,000 in pocket courtesy of a performance bonus.

In addition to the planned celebrations, Greymouth will be treated to a guest appearance by hometown hero Ruby Tui in their Christmas parade Saturday while Rarotonga and Samoa have each had visits from Maiakawanakaukani Roos and Theresa Fitzpatrick respectively.

A parade had been discussed in Wellington but sports minister Grant Robertson had cited timing as an issue and noted it was more of a local council matter. Evidently, it was decided a reception at Parliament was a more feasible option.

The 12-stops on the tour look to interact with as many of the 1.2 million Kiwis who tuned into the World Cup Final last month as possible.

The “Thank you Aoteara Tour” starts Monday, with players’ attendance to be confirmed.

Leinster cleanse palette with record URC scoreline against Zebre

My name is Solenn Bonnet, and I am a single mother navigating the challenges of raising my two-year-old child while trying to make ends meet. I came across a trading platform that promised astonishing daily profits of 18%. The allure of such a high return on investment was too tempting to resist, and I found myself drawn into cryptocurrency trading. Excited by the prospect of financial freedom, I invested a significant amount of my savings, totaling over 5.7 BTC. However, what started as a hopeful venture quickly turned into a nightmare. The platform was a scam, and I lost everything I had invested. The emotional toll of this loss was immense; I felt devastated and helpless, struggling to provide for my child and keep up with my bills. In my desperate attempt to recover my funds, I sought help from various recovery experts. Unfortunately, I encountered numerous fraudulent individuals who claimed they could help me retrieve my lost money. Each time I reached out, I was met with disappointment and further scams, which only deepened my despair. Last year was one of the most challenging periods of my life, filled with anxiety and uncertainty about my financial future. Feeling overwhelmed and at a loss, I confided in a close friend from church about my situation. She listened compassionately and shared her own experiences with financial difficulties. Understanding my plight, she introduced me to Tech Cyber Force Recovery, a group of skilled hackers known for their expertise in recovering lost funds. Skeptical yet hopeful, I decided to reach out to them as a last resort. Their services came at a higher cost, but my friend generously offered to help me with a partial payment. I was amazed by how quickly they responded and began the recovery process. Their team was professional, efficient, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire ordeal. To my relief, they successfully recovered more than I had lost to those heartless scammers. This was truly transformative, and I felt a sense of relief and gratitude that I hadn’t felt in a long time. I strongly encourage anyone who has faced similar challenges or fallen victim to scams to reach out to Tech Cyber Force Recovery. If you’ve invested in a fraudulent platform like I did, they are highly capable of helping you reclaim your hard-earned money. Don’t lose hope; there is a way to recover what you’ve lost.
