Haati GrassRoots Rugby

Haati Grassroots Rugby follows Club Rugby Teams across Aotearoa, with a focus on Māori Teams across Aotearoa.

I haere a Haati ki te Karapu Whutupōro o Takawira, i te whakanui rātou i tō rātou huritau 125. Ka haere ki Whareama i te Wairarapa ki te mātaki kia East Coast me Gladstone e tākaro ana mō te Ipu Paku me te Hīra Nunn. I tākaro a Sumner ki Te Whare Wānanga o Lincoln, ā, mō te whakataetae i Tāmaki, i tākaro a Papatoetoe ki ngā College Rifles.

Ko ngā tākaro a ngā Karapu Whutupōro puta noa i Aotearoa tā tēnei hōtaka, me te arotahi ki ngā kapa Māori o Aotearoa.

This week has a bit of a South Island flavour! First up with go to Alexandra for the 105th Annual Topp Cup Challenge between Central and South Otago - a big day of country rugby! We take you to Otautahi, a club in Chrischurch which has never featured on GrassRoots Rugby - it formed back in 1969 and was a result of the Maori Trade Training scheme.
