History

Our club was formed in 1934 at it's original headquarters in Taharoto Rd. 25 years ago the committee made a huge and exciting decision to build new clubrooms at Onewa Domain which offered greatly improved playing conditions with 3 quality fields and the opportunity to vastly improve dressing room, training and lounge/bar facilities.

Our club rooms and lounge are regarded as among the best in the Auckland area and are utilised 12 months of the year with the rugby months and the largest touch module on the North Shore. Our facilities and fields were used as a base for North Harbour Rugby Union until their move to the Albany Stadium in 1997. We continue to host representative games and tournaments as allocated by the union. Our lighting on the No.1 field has been used to televise games outside of the Albany Stadium and our training facilities are regularly used by NZ Rep teams and touring overseas team.

Clubroom Facilities & Social Activities

Our clubrooms are located just 2 minutes from the Akoranga drive off-ramp, traveling north on the Northern Motorway and opposite the North Shore YMCA.

With full training facilities available, we are also within walking distance of the Takapuna Golf Course and the "Pat's Garage" - a popular North Shore bar patronised by many Takapuna and North Harbour rugby players and their families.

We have a fully carpeted bar & lounge and huge dance floor. Our clubrooms are much sought after for hire for weddings, 21st, business conferences of course we hold regular club functions and a very successful corporate lunch in July.

From 2005 there has been extensive refurbishment of fields 2 and 3 and we know have a first class training facility.

We encourage our teams to organise functions as a way of fundraising. We also have a downstairs Bar available for smaller functions and a separate boardroom for business meetings.
