Update from Raglan Football Club: That’s Why They Call it a Winter Sport

May 30, 2023

Want to hear a joke?

“What’s the best thing about the Football season?” 

“It ends”.

We can collectively will this wild weather to pass, dream of the day we clean the barbeque of its roaches, fantasize about the purchasing of suncream and hoping our favourite brand of ice blocks are in stock. And until that day, we have this…Winter Sports.

But OH how various teams across Raglan Football Club smashed their opposition last weekend! Maybe it’s because these players are used to frothing in the foam? Whatever it was, well done Raglan for representing the club in such inclement weather.

Spectators were totally soaked to the bone with waves of rainfall pummeling the matches, but they witnessed drive, determination, comradery and skill amongst our junior club players. 

Pictured, a couple of drowned rats: Connell and his sister Aoife. Connell’s 7th Grade team was playing away. It is their first year playing away games.
