Whalers Sports Club

💚❤️💙

As the season comes to an end, we want to take a moment to recognise and celebrate every single person who has been part of our club this year
To our players, coaches, managers, trainers, volunteers, whānau and supporters.
Nei rā ngā mihi! 🙌🏽

Behind every game, every training session, every win and every tough loss were countless hours of hard work, commitment, sacrifice and determination.
To our senior womens and mens thank you. You showed up, you put in the mahi, you backed each other, and you represented the Whalers with pride.

A massive thank you to everyone who has stood on the sideline, travelled to games, helped behind the scenes, washed our jerseys, cooked the kai, coached, managed, organised and supported our teams.
We want to thank you!!

PROUD!!!! First year in Premier footy, underdogs with all odds stacked against us and we made it into the Top 4!!

Today may not have been the outcome we wanted or the way we wanted our season to end but we achieved everything we set out to do in 2026.

This team was built brick by brick from the ground up, ZERO transfers - ALL MANA, now that is something we are proud of.

We may not have the loudest sideline but what we do have is a whanau behind us that are full of heart,

We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who contributed and enabled us to have this great season.
