Auckland grassroots rugby clubs receive funding boost
Two rugby clubs in south Auckland have been named among the recipients of the Bunnings Rugby Assist programme.
Tepapapa Onehunga Rugby Club and Manukau Rovers will receive $10,000 each of Bunnings materials.
This will be used to upgrade sporting facilities to grow and improve the clubs.
Five rugby clubs across the country have received $30,000 and 15 clubs received $10,000 worth of support from the programme.
“The passion and dedication shown by the club volunteers and communities who applied for Bunnings Rugby Assist is really encouraging,” Bunnings director Ben Camire said.
“They share our goal of helping to build grassroots rugby, which is at the heart of every community in this country.”

Auckland has a thriving cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures across the country, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕
Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!
Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
