Waitākere College

NZ Youth Touch Nationals

Three of our Waitākere College students placed 2nd in the country for their grade!


A massive congratulations to 8 of our students who competed in the NZ Youth Touch Nationals over the weekend. The tournament was held over 3 days at Bruce Pulman Park in Takanini. These tournaments can be extremely challenging physically and mentally with our students playing at least 7 high-intensity touch games over the course of the weekend. 

Three of our very own Waitākere College students placed 2nd in the country for their grade!
This is a huge accomplishment for these players and something to be extremely proud of.
