Massive shoutout to everyone who came through to our
Easter Sunday Community Fun Day β you all brought
the vibes! ππ½π―
Looks like the Easter Bunny definitely showed up fit
this year⦠or maybe he just came for the sausage
sizzle and spot prizes πππ
From the bouncy castles and face painting to the
laughs, runs, and good energy β it was awesome
seeing so many tamariki, rangatahi, and whΔnau
getting involved and having a go at Rugby101 ππ₯
Thatβs what itβs all about for us β community, fun, and
giving it a crack πͺπ½
Big love to everyone who came down, had a run,
supported, or just pulled up for a good time β we
appreciate you all! ππ½π
π₯ Check out the highlights from the day below β you
might spot yourself in there! ππ₯
Until next timeβ¦
Outplay. Outwit. Outrun. ππ₯
