As you catch up with extended family and friends over the holiday period you may come across young men and women looking to play rugby in Wellington in 2025; encourage them to get in touch and we will welcome them into our community!

Congratulations to Maddie Feaunati who was nominated as World Rugby's Women's 15s Breakthrough Player of the Year after an outstanding debut season for the England Red Roses... Both the Wellington Men's and Women's Sevens sides came away champions at the Central 7s tournament last weekend. The Women's team's head coach was Ryan Setefano and featured Marist St Pats players Oliana Tia and Xanthe Sommerville... The final competitive club rugby for 2024 was the Ambassadors Sevens held earlier this month. Our Women finished second, while our Men finished fourth... The Annual Marist St Pats Golf Tournament will be back in early 2025; keep an eye out for the date and registration details...
