14 years ago yesterday -17,000 fans packed into the stadium to watch the New Zealand Kiwis verse Toa Samoa, with the Kiwis winning by just 2 points.
After last night’s incredible Tonga v Samoa clash, this popped up in our memories. 🇹🇴🇼🇸 The pride, the flags, the passion and the electric atmosphere that Pasifika nations bring to sport is next level, and is always a huge celebration of Pacific culture.
And so, we are really looking forward to hosting the Pasifika Rugby Sevens (and trying all the delicious food!) on 21 November with Fale Pasifika Te Tai Tokerau/Northland.
