Round 1 is done and dusted for the W League team, and we’ve gone through unbeaten, and very pleased to be 5 points clear from our closest rivals Wellington Utd & Palmy North Marist. The last two games of the round saw us face a strengthened Wairarapa at home. We knew this wouldn’t be the same team that allowed us to beat them 20-0 in the Kelly Cup, and we were right. Wairarapa came out to compete, and their shape, compactness and tireless efforts meant we were finding them hard to break down.
A new look team and a tough first few games in central league, the Upper Hutt Car Sales women’s central league team are really starting to come together. An 8-1 win against Wellington United was the team’s second win of the season. Three goals to Emma Main, who maintains her lead for Central Women’s League Golden Boot this season, two to Emily Morison and Toni West and a goal to Olivia de Ronde.
Congratulations to the UHCF 11th Grade Storm on a FANTASTIC effort at the KCU Easter tournament. To go through the day unbeaten, score 11 goals and concede only 1 is a brilliant achievement for any team, but to beat Onslow the way they did in that final was outstanding. In the 5 to 6 years I’ve been coaching it was probably one of the gutsiest performances I have seen from a group of kids – they didn’t give an inch, but played hard and fair! Well deserved boys on taking the trophies away this year!!! Important to remember too, these are the twelve best 11th Grade teams in the Wellington District!

A profound slice of life. Mum’s Vege Patch explores the relationship between three sisters, their Mum, and the things we grow inside us. Have we done enough weeding to sustain what we’ve planted? A dark comedy about a funeral and losing Mum’s ashes.
By Adam Julian When Norths junior Leon Tuiloma suffered a 106-7 defeat playing for the Wellington Axemen against his former club in 2022, he entertained thoughts of quitting rugby altogether.
