Are you the owner of Wakatipu Rugby Club?
Welcome to the Wakatipu Rugby Club, located in Queenstown, New Zealand. With a proud history dating back to its formation in 1953, the Wakatipu Rugby Club is renowned as one of the strongest Otago Country Rugby Clubs in the region. We are the only rugby club located in the adventure capital of the world, Queenstown, offering a unique experience for players and spectators.
The club currently fields two senior rugby teams, the leadings, and Wanderers, who compete in local competitions. Additionally, we have a Women's team and a vibrant junior rugby club, which includes Girl's Rippa Rugby. Whether you are a seasoned player or new to the sport, the Wakatipu Rugby Club provides an inclusive and welcoming environment for everyone.
We take pride in fostering lasting friendships and a strong sense of camaraderie within our club. Joining our club means becoming part of a close-knit community that supports each other on and off the field. Our players and supporters are known for their resilience and toughness, an attribute that is ingrained in the DNA of every member.
As the only rugby club in Queenstown, we are committed to promoting the sport within our community. We organise events and initiatives to encourage youngsters to take up rugby and develop their skills. Our junior club provides a nurturing environment for young players to learn and grow, supported by experienced coaches and dedicated volunteers.
Opportunities for sponsorship and advertising are available to local businesses looking to align themselves with our reputable club. By partnering with the Wakatipu Rugby Club, businesses can reach a wide audience of passionate rugby fans and demonstrate their support for the local community.

We encourage all players who have played rugby outside of New Zealand to initiate the IRB clearance process with their last club before arriving in Queenstown. This clearance is necessary to ensure eligibility to play rugby in New Zealand.
