It is the game of rugby that has brought us together and Total Rugby will ensure that you will experience the very best of New Zealand’s rugby culture. Welcome, Haere Mai, and enjoy your stay.

Average Queenstown high in July is 10 degrees and the low is 1. Chch is 12 and 3. Grounds: Grounds could be okay but most likely wet and muddy. Come prepared with decent studs or you might find you can barely turn a corner! It may not be feasible to trade in your multi-stud boats but you may want to think about it. Game protocol: Most schools in New Zealand have their own haka and it is common practice for the host school to perform the haka for overseas visiting teams. This is meant as a challenge and it is up to the visiting team to accept it as they wish.

  • Competitive Balance in New Zealand Rugby
    !"#$#!!%&'"()%*& !"#$%&'&'(%)*+,+-!%) '-)-%.)/%+,+-0) 123*4& & ! ! ! A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Business at the University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand Abstract NZ rugby has been confronted with the unenviable situation where competitions have become too predictable, making it increasingly hard to maintain fan support and to attract new fans. This is further complicated by many of the unions bearing large financial loses as a result of increasing player salaries and decreasing crowd attendances. The need for change has been recognized by all stakeholders, and the NZRU have introduced competitive balance tools as a possible solution. The objective of this study is to determine the opinion of both employees and officials on competitive balance in NZ rugby. In-depth semi-structured interviews of 17 officials and employees of NZ rugby were used to gain an understanding of participant’s attitudes towards competitive balance. Results indicate the NZRU have attempted to achieve competitive balance by the implementation of two competitive balance tools, namely salary caps and franchise contracting. The need for competitive balance was recognized by both employees and officials. Results show both parties are impacted in some way by the use of these tools. The major problem highlighted by my study is that NZ rugby is trying to balance the different (and competing) interests of all the stakeholders in order to achieve competitive balance, and this has resulted in some conflicting findings. This is illustrated by the use of collective bargaining, which was implemented to promote and protect players’ rights. While players recognized this has improved their rights, officials admitted it had placed restrictions on their ability to create competitive teams.
