DID YOU KNOW: NZ’s Provincial Rugby teams are amongst the oldest football teams (of any code) in the entire world?

The Canterbury and Wellington unions were formed way back in 1879, although the first inter-provincial match was held informally between Nelson and Wellington back in 1870.

Most of the rest of the country set up provincial unions and representative teams over the next few years.

In fact, 24 of our 26 teams have over a century’s worth of history (Counties Manukau and Harbour being the only exceptions – see disclaimer in the comments).

This puts our NPC teams right up there with Europe’s oldest football clubs – this is the average age of teams in each league:

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Scottish Premiership (150 years)
🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Premier League (145 years)
☘️ GAA (136 years)
🇳🇿 NPC (133 years)
🇩🇪 Bundesliga (122 years)
🇫🇷 Top 14 (121 years)
🇪🇸 La Liga (109 years)
