Hi Folks
Tickets are now on sale for the game v Otago Rugby in Alexandra on July 24th. We'd love to see the place painted Green and Yellow and re-create our Meads Cup Final Day in 2025 when our supporters showed up in numbers to back the boys. Make a weekend of it and get along to Alexandra to roar the boys on. You'd be mad not to be there for what should be a great occassion. Maybe, just maybe, it could be an unforgettable day.

Celtic Club Day

Saturday 23rd saw Ashburton Celtic RFC celebrate their Club Day, a strong reflection of the club’s tight-knit community with a great turnout across the day.

A huge effort from volunteers, club members, parents, and supporters ensured the day was a fitting celebration of a proud club built on commitment and community. Their ongoing passion for the emerald green continues to play a key role in bringing days like this together.

Players and coaches across all grades took the field with pride, contributing to the atmosphere that makes Club Day a highlight each season. The support of sponsors and the wider Celtic community was evident throughout, reinforcing the strong foundations of the club.

Congratulations to Hannah Peckham & Baby Ruth for taking out the prize for supporter of the day with thanks to Black & White Coffee Cartel Ashburton.

A great day at Keenans Road and a credit to everyone involved at Celtic.
