Our Bunnings Rugby Assist 2024 winners have been announced!
Congratulations to the winners of Bunnings Rugby Assist 2024!
This year, Bunnings wanted to shine a brighter light on rugby clubs making a positive difference to their local rugby club.
As a partner of provincial rugby in New Zealand, we’re grateful for Bunnings support of grassroots rugby through Bunnings Rugby Assist.
These clubs will each receive $30,000 to help them improve, upgrade or renovate their facilities to continue making a positive difference to their local rugby community.
Grassroots rugby is at the heart of every community in Aotearoa. Whether it's spending weeknights training or Saturday mornings cheering from the sidelines, Kiwis come together for the love of the game and the sense of community that it fosters. In partnership with New Zealand Rugby, Bunnings Warehouse created Bunnings Rugby Assist in 2021 to support community rugby clubs across the country.
Over the last three years, Bunnings Rugby Assist has supported 40 clubs with a share of $900,000 worth of products and materials to upgrade their facilities.
The following Clubs were selected for Bunnings Rugby Assist in 2024:

Local Rugby Fund 2024
Local Rugby Fund provides local rugby clubs with Bunnings products and materials to help with club maintenance.
Each club across Aotearoa can redeem a $250 Bunnings gift card from their local Bunnings store until June 30, 2025.
How do you redeem your Bunnings gift card?
Requests for a $250 Bunnings gift card can be made in writing on a registered local rugby club’s official letterhead and sent to your nearest Bunnings store.
A Bunnings team member will arrange a date for a club representative to meet at the Bunnings store to introduce themselves and handover the gift card.
Bunnings supports local community groups by providing hands-on assistance with their projects. Wherever possible, their teams take the opportunity to get out into the community and help with grassroots projects, providing D.I.Y. support. Bunnings also regularly donate products for community activities including raffles and fundraising events.
If your club is needing hands-on assistance with a project, please speak to a Bunnings team member to see what support is available.
If you don’t have a Bunnings Warehouse store local to your club, you can apply for an e-gift card from the closest Bunnings store.
