Club History

Makomako Rugby Club

The Makomako Rugby Club were based in the Bush rugby union in the early 20th century. A photo of the team is included in a regional history about the Ballance district (Ballance rugby club is also mentioned in the book and on this website). Presumably, like the Ballance rugby club, Makomako did not exist for long and probably went into recess at the onset of the second world war.
