Nelson Kayak and Canoe Club paddler Neville Maytom is back home with a gold medal from the World Masters Games.
Maytom and partner George Green finished first in the kayaking doubles marathon at the multi-sport event held in Auckland, New Zealand, which ran in April.
The pair also finished third in the 200-metre, 500 and 1,000 sprint events.
Maytom’s latest result follows the bronze he won in doubles kayak at the ICF Canoe Marathon Masters World Cup last September.
