HARLEQUINS, a club for ALL

The amalgamation of Zingari and Star rugby clubs in 1998 marked the beginning of Harlequins' illustrious journey, with numerous achievements in South Canterbury's rugby and netball arena.​​​​​​​

Our Premier, Premier Reserve, and Premier Women's teams have established a strong presence on the rugby fields of South Canterbury, consistently demonstrating their skills and competitive spirit until the very end. The revitalization of women's rugby has been a highlight of recent years, and we're delighted to see the teams back in action and part of the club.​​​​​​​

We welcome all club memebers, their families, and all visitors to join us to refresh the body and the mind, with many a discussion on the presnt days play or past expierences on and off the field. 

​​​​​​​We are supported by a very successful JAB section, so if you’re looking for a club for your kids, girls and boys, whatever age, then this is the club for you. Parent participation on and off the field is always appreciated with many players going on to represent the senior club now and well into the future.

Our Senior Netball Division joined the Harlequins Club in the early 2000's, boosting the club’s commitment to sports throughout the South Canterbury district, we have seen them grow from strength to strength and are always looking for that perfect game, they too have had success on the Netball courts of SC, claiming Champions in both Premier and Senior grades. So, if you are looking for a club or are new to the district, come join a vibrant entertaining club.

Our clubrooms situated on Church St was purchased in 2008, renovations were swift to allow for full catering and bar facilities including open floor plan, to allow us to officially open prior to the 2009 club season. It is now the centre piece of the club, boosting a perfect place for any club or private function. With the purchase of the clubrooms, we also moved our training grounds from Morrison Park to Ashbury Park, this move allowed us to combine with the Timaru Cricket Club, with major renovations of their Club Rooms, involving extra changing rooms, gear shed and new shower block to accommodate all Permier and JAB rugby, Senior and schoolboy cricket, while also allowing for many other sporting codes to utilise the facilities for trainings.

If you’re looking for a club be it Premier, Social, JAB/IAB rugby or Netball or just to enjoy a few light refreshments, then give us a call, there's a team for all ages and a seat available in the clubrooms to enjoy the banter and social atmosphere.
