Takapuna Grammar Rugby prides itself on being a successful rugby school in the North Harbour region.
As a co-ed school, Takapuna Grammar School often exceeds expectations when competing against top rugby schools from all over North Harbour.
With a link to our local North Shore Rugby Club, we aim to develop our rugby players while they are in the secondary school system. We offer rugby to both boys and girls. We cater for our 1st XV team through to our 7th grade team with competition games played on Saturdays during Terms 2 and 3.
Preseason training starts during Term 1 along with games and development opportunities. Teams also have the opportunity to travel to tournaments and games outside of Auckland throughout the season.
Takapuna Grammar School has great plans for rugby, so make sure you are a part of this team.
Pre-season and Playing Dates:
The playing dates are determined by North Harbour Rugby for each grade but typically a season will look like:
The rugby fee for 2024 will be $150 per player.
1st XV players incur an additional fee to cover some of the costs of their playing and training gear.
The rugby fee must be paid at the time of registration. If you would like to discuss your son or daughter's fees for the year please contact Dean Watkins.

Mouthguards are compulsory and provided by the school as part of the rugby fee.
