Tukapa Premier Team
Also known as the Senior A’s, this side is our flagship team and the one most of our 300 juniors aspire to play for one day.
Since the club started in 1892, our Premiers have won 17 Taranaki championship titles, produced 13 All Blacks, 7 NZ Juniors/Colts, 10 Super Rugby Players and 166 Taranaki Bulls reps plus 8 Maori All Blacks and 11 North Island players. So for those serious about their rugby, the Tukapa Premiers is the side which can establish you as someone with the potential to achieve higher honours and/or to win a prestigious club championship. Our Prems train as a team twice a week but with an expectation that team members will also work on individual programs to enhance their fitness and positional skills.
