Wainuiomata Rugby Football Club (Inc):
Press Release Number: 012/2007.
Date: 17th June 2007.
Once again the Wainuiomata Auto Auctions Premier team lost to Upper Hutt in another close encounter by 13 points to 18. Wainuiomata had the wind in the first half, but a lead of only 10 points to 0 was not enough to an Upper Hutt team who scored two tries to once again beat Wainuiomata.
Wainuiomata had the opportunity to win this game, but missed scoring opportunities in the first half along with their inability to nail scoring opportunities in the second half again resulted in an disappointing loss – a game in which if we had taken all our scoring opportunities we would have won. The difference being that when Upper Hutt had scoring opportunities they converted them to points.
In the first half Wainuiomata were awarded a penalty try, which was converted by Uale Mai who also kicked a penalty. In the second half Michael Leala’ava kicked a sole penalty goal. Player of the day was Laifa Ta’ala.
In the clubrooms, Jared Beyer was presented with his badge for playing 100 Senior games for Wainuiomata. This makes Jared the youngest player in Wainuiomata to reach his 100th game – congratulations for the Rugby Club and the Wainuiomata community.
This week our Premiers play Johnsonville at Helston Park at 3.00 pm, – support from the community would be appreciated for this vital game for the Wainuiomata Premier team.
In other games the Building World ITM Wainuiomata Colts team beat Upper Hutt by 34 points to 15 to remain unbeaten in their championship round. Try scorers were Eden Monu, Paris Winiata, Tau Mamea and two tries to Caleb Kahui. Jason Rogers converted 3 tries and slotted one penalty. Player of the day was Matthew Jacobs.
The Clives Chemist Shop Senior 3rd team won by default to Norths, as the Norths team only turned up with nine players.
The Trevor Mallards Under 85kg Weightwatchers beat HOBM by 32 points to 24. Jermaine Pasene scored one try while Patrick Wright scored three tries with Bernard Wright converting three tries and slotted two penalties. Player of the day was Michael Sukroo.
The 12d Presidents team travelled well to Mary Crowther Park and beat Paremata Plimmerton by 29 points to 27. A very close encounter in which their training at the bar paid off. Try scorers were Lee Bosworth, Geoff Goddard, Peter Griffin, Willie Power, and Barney. Brent Jeffrey’s converted two tries. Player of the day was Warren Dowman.
The Wainuiomata Times Womans team narrowly lost to Old Boys University by 20 points to 15.

Wainuiomata Rugby Football Club (Inc):
Press Release Number: 011/2007.
Date: 10th June 2007.
This week the Wainuiomata Auto Auction Premier 1 played Petone and played with distinction, losing by 27 points to 39. For large parts of the game the Wainuiomata team attacked the Petone try line and were unlucky not to score at least another 3 tries.
The forward competed well against a bigger Petone pack and once the Wainuiomata back line received some good ball they threatened the Petone defence. Petone at half time lead by 20 points to 3. With the three points coming from a Jared Beyer penalty. In the second half Uale Mai scored two tries with one conversion, John Monu and Geoff Gilsenan scored a try each with Jared Beyer one conversion to earn the team a bonus point for scoring 4 tries.
The second half performance showed that this young Wainuiomata team can compete at the top level of Wellington Rugby and will be a dominant force in the Hardham Cup.
Another interest in this game was that both Jared Beyer and Geoff Gilsenan were playing their 99th game for the Wainuiomata senior team.
This week our Premiers play Upper Hutt at William Jones Park at 3.00 pm, – support from the community would be appreciated for this vital first round game of the Hardham Cup.
In other games the Building World ITM Wainuiomata Colts team beat Johnsonville by 53 points to 20. Try scorers were Ben Tupiliola, Wayne Aiomata, Glen Angus, Matthew Jacobs, Paris Winata, Tau Mamea, Caleb Kahui and Jason Love who scored one try, five conversions and one penalty. Player of the day was Ben Tupiliola.
The Clives Chemist Shop Senior 3rd team drew with top of the table Oriental Rongotai 15 points all to remain unbeaten. Try scorers were Alfe Lepou and Joshua Bowles with Henry Lea’ana converting one try and scoring one penalty. Player of the day was Akuso Akuso.
The Trevor Mallards Under 85kg Weightwatchers narrowly lost to Poneke by 17 points to 24.
The 12d Presidents team travelled well and had a very good victory against Rimutaka by 37 points to 26.
The Wainuiomata Times Womans team had a bye this week.

There has been a complete redesign of the Wainuiomata Darts Association website, which now can be viewed at darts.wainuiomata.com (this website is no longer active, the darts association now have their website hosted with sporty.co.nz).
Wainuiomata Darts Association has been supported by the local community since 1981. In 1996 the association secured a home venue within the Wainuiomata RSA. The move has provided greater facilities for our members and the opportunity to host inter club events, development initiatives and visiting associations. Our membership is now over 300 where our association is also supported by players from the Hutt Valley and greater Wellington Districts.

Over the last few weeks the "My Tradesman" website has gained a lot publicity! It's a great idea in our opinion and for those who may not be aware, here is a little insight into the idea behind the website's objective. My tradesman was designed to allow people who have used services from our everyday tradesmen to give their reviews of the services received and allow everyday people like ourselves to be able to make a better informed decision about the tradesmen we hire to carry out our jobs, for example:
Appliance Repairers, Bricklayers, Pavers & Concrete Specialists, Builders & Carpenters, Cleaners (carpet, windows, general), Electricians, Flooring Contractors, Furniture Movers, Gardeners/Landscapers/Rubbish Removers, Gas Fitters/Heating Contractors, Glass Installers & Repairers, Joiners (kitchens, bathrooms, renovators), Painters, Paperhangers & Plasterers, Pest Controllers, Plumbers & Drainlayers, Roofing & Spouting Contractors, Window Furnishings (Curtains & Blinds)
This idea has spread like wild fire through out New Zealand and being a website that is free of charge has claimed a lot of attention with a lot of people, who are now taking advantage of the website.
If you are interested so far with this idea feel free to click the following link:
