A few years ago, Kick for a Cause was just an idea in our heads.

There are no words to describe how special it has been to watch a community build around both the event, and the cause behind it 💕

And there are even less words to describe how special it is to watch that community come together in real-time, uniting on the sides of a football field to back The Salvation Army Rotorua.

Thank you so much to every single person who came along last weekend to show your support, some captured here by T.VM Photography 🙌

We were so proud to present each player with a medal on Sunday, beautifully crafted - and kindly sponsored - by the lovely team at Barclay Engravers 🫶

Thanks to T.VM Photography for capturing the moment our players received their medals on Sunday.

Could we please see your photos?!

To those of you who chose to spend your Sunday with us down at the Kick for a Cause field cheering on our players as they gave it their all for the Salvation Army ... thank you (so, so, so much)! 💕🙏

One of our favourite things after these annual events is hearing from you and seeing the day through your eyes.

So, if you came along on the weekend, we’d love for you to drop us a comment with your favourite moments and photos 🫶

P.S. thanks to graceklavaphotography for this beautiful pic! 👇

Our players may have been fast on the field, but our photographers Grace and Thomas are even faster, with photos from Sunday's charity match now rolling in 🥰

These are a few of our absolute faves from the lovely graceklavaphotography, who was so kind to share her time and talents with us for the second year in a row 🙏

Our MC and commentators said it best - the real winner from Kick for a Cause is, and always will be, The Salvation Army Rotorua.

But while we continue to tally up the total raised, our teams deserve another moment of celebration.

So here they are, captured here in all their joy and glory by T.VM Photography 🫶

P.S. More photos from our wonderful co-photographers, Thomas Vaughan and Grace Klava, to come soon.
