National Cup Series Round 3 is on the 25th and 26th of July and will be held at the Extreme Edge West Gym at 5 Waikaukau Rd Glen Eden. The gym is located a 30 minutes drive from downtown or 30 minutes from the airport. This is an industrial area on the western edge of the city and there is no local accommodation.

We would recommend staying at a hotel, apartment or backpackers in the city. There are train and bus service from the Britomart transport centre to Glen Eden but allow a plenty of time. There is a bus stop at the end of the road but the nearest train station is Glen Eden which is a 15 min walk. Some accommodation is also available in New Lynn which is 15 minutes away. If you have any questions about accommodation or getting around Auckland please email Chris at: 

There is good parking at the gym, but it is an industrial area so don’t expect cafes and restaurants. Here are some handy links:
