What’s on Today? Rugby family fun

Want to do something outdoors with the whole family today?

Head down to Arataki Sports Club for a free Family Sunday Funday event and get the chance to rub elbows with All Blacks Jerome Kaino and Nehe Milner-Skudder.

Junior rugby players will be able to register to play for the Arataki Sports Club this season, as well as have the chance to meet their All Black idols Jerome and Nehe and gain some top tips.

'It's about helping as much as we can in giving back to the community. Especially to the kids because they are our future,” says organiser Pato Alverez.

There will be live music from Papamoa musician Tiki Taane and Swiss, with support from local DJ Mickel.

The free Family Sunday Funday event, hosted by Pato Entertainment, is at Arataki Sports Club today from 12-5pm.
