So good to catch up with Taieri U10 team coming to the NZJRF Queenstown 2026 along with their U12 and U13 Club teams 🏉

Some of them have been to the Festival before to support older siblings and now it's their turn!

The team were looking sharp at the game on Saturday and are looking forward to being on tour with their friends, the challenge of playing new teams and....lots of tackling!

The best part of rugby isn’t the scoreboard, it’s the people 🏉

Seeing girls and boys playing side by side is a reminder that rugby and rugby league are games for everyone 🔗

Building confidence, connection, and a lifelong love for the sport, one festival at a time 🙌

Mud, rain and memories they’ll talk about for years. 🌧️🏉

What a weekend!
Teams from across New Zealand and overseas.
New friendships formed.
Epic goals.
Respect on and off the field.
And a football culture that reminded us what junior sport should be about.

From the opening whistle to the final moments, the atmosphere across Queenstown was something special. Massive thanks to every player, coach, manager, referee, volunteer, supporter and local partner who helped bring it to life.

This was more than a tournament.
It was connection, community and memories that will last forever.

The journey is only just beginning 🌍

The countdown is on for the 2026 Junior Rugby & League Festivals 🏉
