Greerton Marist Rugby Club

Maria, the organiser at Greerton Marist Rugby Club, sends a warm note to the sports community.

Greerton Marist Rugby Club in Tauranga is a central hub for passionate rugby, netball, and darts enthusiasts. With a rich history, the club offers a supportive and competitive environment for all.

The club loves its Friday Club Nights, starting at 6:30pm. There are darts competitions and a membership draw. Netball POD games also happen then, giving players a chance to show their skills.

Rugby is a big focus here. The senior team, premiers, are coached by Simon Karl, Jason Shepard, Richie Kingi, and Brendon McKeown. Tane Howe, Lee Porter, and Blair Tristram lead the Development team. Daniel Barlow, Nate Hohaia, and Alex Mankelow guide the Colts. The Women's team, coached by Archie Carter, Andrew Boyd, Mark Decke, and Dan Deveraux, adds to the club's diverse rugby scene.

There's also a thriving netball programme, welcoming players of all levels. For 2023, there are three dedicated teams. Maria and the team are always looking for more coaches, umpires, managers, and supporters.

The darts club meets on Fridays for fun games, currently played in pairs but singles nights might be on the horizon.

The club thanks its sponsors: TREMAINS, O'Connor Warren Insurance, Tauriko Business Estate, and HK Kitchens. They make it possible to keep offering great opportunities for athletes.

Greerton Marist keeps everyone informed with newsletters and social events. Club apparel is available, so members can show their support.

For those needing a venue, the club offers function hire. It’s spacious and well-equipped for various events.

If you need to get in touch, visit the website or email. Maria and the team welcome feedback and questions, as they're always looking to improve.

Greerton Marist Rugby Club is a true part of the Tauranga community. Whether you’re into rugby, netball, or darts, the club is a fantastic place to pursue your sports interests and meet fellow enthusiasts.
