    • Harbour Cities
      • It was great to see the Dominion Post actually use some of its reporters to explore some of the local issues in the Weekend, with a two whole (almost) full pages on developments on the Wellington waterfront.

    • Womens B v Petone Pulse 14/6/2009
      • BNU women's B 3-1 Loss to Petone Pulse The Sunday morning early game proved a bit much for what can only be described as an unlucky game :( BNU women's B started strong  with a load of shots on goal and some really great team work dominating the possession in the first 20 minutes.  Petone started a player short but soon picked up the pace with some higher grade recruits.  BNU had all the opportuni

    • Premier v Stop Out - 20/06/09 - W 2-1
      • Barely two weeks ago, I was hurling criticism at Island Bay's Prem's as I played through a horrible game against Tawa. In the last week however, I've seen us jump the table to third (Stop Out and Karori still have games in hand over us), played in two memorable victories, and seen our team transform remarkably, from a bunch of guys with talent, to a team with heart.Admittedly, the first win was ag

    • Now We’re Flying!
      • We’ve had a busy week here at Snapper, rolling out the ability to pay for your bus fare by Snapper on Valley Flyer and Airport Flyer buses. The first Snapper-enabled bus left the Waterloo depot in the early hours of last Sunday morning and by lunchtime every Valley Flyer bus had been fitted out with Snapper equipment.

    • Thorndon Tavern : Thai Takeaway
      • Thorndon’s quite the place to be you know. But there is an eyesore that is troubling the residents, above and beyond such other eyesores such as the American Embassy, the abortion of a supermarket carpark, the ugly lumpy tower of the Police Association, the row of non-descript office towers etc: yes, its the Thorndon Tavern.

    • BNU Gymnasium Development
      • Over the last few months the Committee has been looking at options for the gymnasium development. This investigation has shown that a partnership with other organisations is the most viable way of developing the building and can offer the club a number of other benefits as well. In short, the idea is to establish a partnership for the use and management of the gym so that we will continue to have the use of the facility in the long term.

      • 3-1 Victory for BNU Womens B Vs Wainuiomata The Sunday match looked to be another wintery experience but the trip over the hill showed the gods were smiling over Wainuiomata as the clouds cleared just in time for kick off.  BNU was due a win and were quietly confident over a new Wainuiomata side still finding their feet.

As dusk approached on MacAlister 2, two teams were still seen battling it out in an excellent game that would not have not looked out of place a dozen grades higher. Sadly, one Legends player missed the concluding 30 minutes of the encounter, after suffering a nasty shoulder dislocation. We agreed to leave him prone on the field of play, co

    • Shedding Dreads for the Night Shelter
      • Like the line from the song, Tyler Ennis is getting a haircut and hopefully getting a real job. But this is a haircut with a difference. He plans to stand in lower Cuba Mall and charge passers by $20 to cut off a lock of hair. It all happens Saturday 20th June at midday outside Custom Printed Clothing. All the money raised will go to the Wellington Night Shelter.

    • Manners closes, but what will open?
      • If you have read the Dominion Post article on Manners, you will know that the plans to un-mall Manners Mall have just been passed. If you have read the Dominion Post article, you will also not know the full story. Whether due to the breaking nature of the announcement, or somewhat slanted journalistic intent, the dom doesn’t make mention of the news that the lower end of Cuba St down to Wakefield will be redeveloped as a pedestrian-oriented public space.

      • Naenae Nighthawks 1 v BNU16 2 Last gasp victory at Naenae Centre-back Mike Bransfield atoned for last week’s unfortunate OG by grabbing a dramatic winner for BNU with seconds remaining on the clock at Seddon Street. His deft near post finish, from a pinpoint Carl Roberts corner, earned a deserved victory for Brooklyn in a tightly fought contest. Naenae played their part in an open, keenly conteste

Despite fielding a weakened team due to missing a few players because of the long weekend, we competed well for the first 5 minutes before experiencing first hand why the Armani’s are top - their

      • A cold, wet, muddy and steamy draw (BNU 1 – Kapiti 1) You can’t beat Wellington on a good day… and with hail stones the size of marbles, hundred-mile-an-hour gales and a wind chill factor of about minus 20, the BNU girls took to the pitch at Happy Valley.  These were perfect conditions for some slip-sliding muddy tackles and desperate attempts to send a wet, brown ball in the vague direction of th
