🥚🏉 STEADY... STEADY... OUR U6 TRAINING TONIGHT🏉🥚

Who knew an egg and a spoon could be harder than scoring a try? 😆

Our tamariki put their balance, focus, and patience to the test as they carefully navigated the cones one tiny step at a time. There were some serious game faces, plenty of laughs, and a maybe a few eggs that didn't quite make it to the finish line!

It's not always about rugby balls and tackles — sometimes the best skills are built through fun, teamwork, coordination, and giving things a go.

Ka mau te wehi, team! ❤️🖤

📸❤️🖤 BEHIND THE LENS 🖤❤️📸

Another photo drop from our Colours Day celebrations!

There's nothing quite like seeing a sea of red and black around the sidelines and on the field. From team photos and proud smiles to players in action on the field, these photos capture what Taupō United Juniors is all about — whānau, friendship, fun and rugby.

We love seeing our tamariki wearing their colours with pride and representing our club with great attitudes both on and off the field. ❤️🖤

If you've got photos or videos tucked away on your phone, send them through or drop them in the comments — we'd love to share them with our wider United whānau.
