We often say we punch above our weight in sport. This map gives you a picture of how true that is.
With 20 lines and around 500 athletes, teams, coaches and events... and some horses, this map captures our lowest points and moments of national pride.
This map is an intriguing and clever work of design. There is so much to look at, observe and think about. Created by an Auckland family (a history teacher, a graphic artist and a teacher advisor) with a shared love of history. They also created the History Map of NZ.
It makes a great piece to hang on the wall as it will promote much discussion about sport in New Zealand, the huge boosts to national self-confidence and the moments that were hard to watch.
The map comes in an A2 (42 x 59.4 cm) and A1 size (59 x 84cm) is unframed and rolled into a cardboard tube. It looks great framed in a plain white, wood or black frame and makes an excellent, interesting, thought provoking gift.
