    These Grass root Docos are the best!!A look into a time past, true NZ living. A kid in sport stays out of court, training in any discipline/sport teaches you your strengths and weaknesses, cultivation of character, spirit and respect for others!! May these communities continue to grow along with the wonderful diverse characters that make them❤!

    Big respect to the YMP rugby team. I played for Flaxmere Rugby 2015-2017. There was never an issue going to play in Raupunga, they kept it strictly rugby. Clubroom was always open with a mean feed..Unfortunately for them there was always someone starting up shit with them when they have to travel to play in the Bay..It’s the bad mindset of people trying to mix Gang with rugby..
