Weigh-In: All Rippa Rugby & Tackle Rugby players will need to visit the Club on one of our pre-season “Weigh-In” evenings to be weighed.  This helps us legally allocate players to teams.  ALL players will be officially weighed by NHRU at Grading Day/ 1st Game of the season.  Rip Rugby is aged based; not weight based so Rip Rugby Players WILL NOT need to be weighed.

New Players: If you are new to rugby, or new to Takapuna Rugby, then you will need to complete registration on Rugby Xplorer.  You will also need to provide proof of age (Birth Certificate or Passport); to ensure your child is graded appropriately.

Additional information about registration days can be found on the FAQ section of the website

Subs: 1 child playing = $130, 2 children playing (from same family) = $210, 3+ children playing (from same family) = $260.
