Welcome to Northcote Rugby

The Northcote Rugby Club has been the place to play rugby in the Kaipatiki region on Auckland’s North Shore since 1929.

With competitive and social, contact and non-contact formats on offer, Northcote Rugby provides opportunities for all ages from 5 years to 60+ and all skill levels to enjoy our great game. We have just over 400 junior players in every grade, from rippa to tackle, and the popular girls and boys rip rugby. Our senior club has around 150 players in competitive and social grades, including Premier 1, Premier 2, under 21s, restricted u85s, over 35s and midweek social teams. We also have a senior Sevens team who plays in the early part of summer.
