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.”

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
