Yarrows Taranaki Bulls halfback Logan Crowley was looking forward to celebrating Clelands Club Day.

“It’s always a season highlight donning my Coastal socks for the Yarrows Taranaki Bulls on Clelands Club Day. I get a buzz seeing kids proudly wearing their club colours as I was one of them back in the day. Clelands Club Day is a great opportunity for us as a team to reflect on the work our clubs and their volunteers do for our game.”

Prizes will be on offer for the top three selling clubs per registered players. Kaponga will be looking to claim back-to-back titles after being the top selling club at Clelands Club Day in 2023.
