PHOTO GALLERY: Club Day delivers top rugby, fun and friendship

28 May

With all its senior rugby teams playing at home, Saturday May 24 was the perfect day for Hautapu Sports to hold its 2025 Club Day.

Members past and present, young and old, gathered at Memorial Park to support their teams, rekindle friendships … and to inspire the next generation of players, watching from the sidelines.

Photographer Jane Thompson was there to cover Club Day, and to share some of her images, which can be seen at Flickr.
