Elementz began out of a desire to help young people forge a healthier, more positive way forward in life, through the benefits of playing sport and belonging to a club that was more about Family and Whanaungatanga.
The key objective for all members of Elementz Sports is to learn vital life skills and develop core strengths and attributes, that will help them reach their full potential - not just on the field, but throughout their life.
Elementz Sports believes in developing its members to become influencers in their respective communities.
Through shared experiences and working together, strong positive relationships within the team and the wider Club, provide a sense of belonging which we want to strengthen, which we call Whanaungatanga (relationship, family connection).
“Elementz Sports is more than a touch rugby club.
It is a place where people develop key skills, values, and a desire to succeed that they will take with them throughout their lives. It is a family, a home away from home that gives a sense of worth and belonging.”
