Sport Waitākere Competitors

We are the Rugby Football League – the national governing body for Rugby League in Great Britain and Ireland. We are committed to developing and growing Rugby League at all levels. We administer the England Rugby League team, the Betfred Challenge Cup, Betfred Super League and the Betfred Rugby League Championship and League One and also support and administer the grassroots game. Our focus on excellence in coaching and development is helping more players start, stay and succeed in the nation’s most exciting summer sport. We work in partnership with clubs and Rugby League Foundations to offer new ways to play, from Play Touch Rugby League to Wheelchair RL. Together we are working hard to inspire the next generation of young players and fans through Sky Try – the largest ever programme of Rugby League opportunities in schools. This is different. League.

Sport New Zealand promotes, encourages and supports sport and physical recreation to enrich the lives of New Zealanders. We passionately believe in the benefits and power of sport – for the enjoyment it brings, the satisfaction of achievement, and the pride we feel as a nation when our athletes succeed. We work with a range of organisations and people who share this passion, to create a world-class sports system at all levels – from grass roots to high performance - which will encourage more Kiwis to participate, and reap the benefits of a life-long involvement in sport. We aim to foster an informed and engaged online community, where everyone can be part of constructive conversation about sport and recreation in New Zealand.
