Waikato’s 93.0 The Rock has once again teamed up with ASWEFA in the hunt for the best forklift operator in the 07, and we think it could be you...

On Friday January 30th, 2026, The Rock will take over the ASWEFA Training Centre 86 Duke Street, Frankton with eight of the most elite forklift operators who will go head-to-head in an elimination style format, competing to be crowned the region's champion.

Macs took it out last year? Who will be crowned the 2026 champion scoring themselves $500 plus your own trophy.

Entry Requirements:

To keep the competition safe and fair, you’ll need to hold a current forklift operator certificate/license (renewed tri-yearly). An F Endorsement alone is not valid, as it only applies to forklifts driven on the road, not your on-site operating skills.

If your forklift certificate has expired or needs renewing, ASWEFA’s got you sorted! They're offering a 20% discount on ASWEFA’s ONLINE Forklift Training (normally $150+gst) and ASWEFA’s Face to Face training (normally $210+gst).

Just use the promo code COMPETITION when booking online HERE to get certified before the big day.
