Vili intends to compete at Games - manager

Valerie Vili's manager says the world champion shot putter still intends to compete at the Commonwealth Games in Delhi despite renewed warnings of imminent terrorist attacks in India.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs & Trade has strengthened warnings to travellers to avoid popular markets and tourist attractions in Delhi and is urging New Zealanders in India to register with consular officials.

Nick Cowan says Vili plans to use tournaments in the coming months to build-up to the Games in October.

He says she will make a final decision about attending the Games later in the year.

Meanwhile, Commonwealth Games officials say it's too early to gauge the security risk in New Delhi.

The Government's major events security committee says the Games are six months away and the situation may have changed by then.

The New Zealand Olympic Committee says it will assess the situation as the Games get closer.
