Auckland Rugby Football Union

On behalf of the 20 clubs within the province, The Auckland Rugby Football Union is responsible for the, management, administration, marketing and development of rugby in the area.

It is a job everyone associated with the Union takes great pride in. Based at Eden Park, the home of many of New Zealand's greatest rugby moments, the union facilitates the running of school, club and representative competitions in which Auckland teams participate.

These include primary school competitions like the Bill McLaren trophy, Club competitions such as the world renowned Gallaher Shield, right up to the ITM Cup.

The development of the game is assisted through such schemes as the Auckland Rugby Academy and numerous coaching courses.

Another developmental innovation at Auckland Rugby is the "Pro-Sport Programme", which is designed to give young Aucklanders experience in all areas of rugby, including coaching, training and event management. The Pro Sport Programme is also responsible for the development of rugby at primary school level and each year they run coaching clinics at more than 300 primary schools.

Volunteers are a vital part of our rugby community, and as a union we absolutely appreciate their efforts and do what we can to support them.

One of the most valued and crucial volunteer groups are referees. Games simply do not go ahead without them and it is important they are well supported on and off the field. From those who are controlling premier games to all the Mum or Dad coaches that find themselves with a whistle, all of them deserve courtesy and respect from those on the field as well as the sideline.
