Mahu Rugby seeks fresh talent

Shannon Kloppers and Brad Leggoe received their 40-game blazers after last month’s match against Kumeu.

Mahurangi Rugby Club is taking applications for coaching and management positions across all grades for the 2021 season.

Director of rugby Haden Kose says the ideal candidates will be committed to helping the club grow and improve.

He says the premier grade rugby coaching opportunity would suit either a local who has a rapport with team members, or a coach from the North Shore looking to build their experience.

“It’s a good opportunity for an up and coming coach to prove themselves in a challenging but rewarding environment,” he says.

Meanwhile, Mahurangi Rugby’s U21 Colts team has had a good season, beating Kumeu 58-29 in their last match before lockdown.

The team had been scheduled to play against Takapuna before lockdown halted the season, but the club understands it may still go ahead once restrictions lift.

If the U21s win the match, they could make the semi-finals.
