During the lockdown period Mako supporters were given a challenge designed to keep them occupied and amused. The Tasman RU set up a Facebook poll in which users were encouraged to vote for their favourite Mako player in each position from the last 14 seasons, culminating in a “Fans XV”.

The TRU is pleased to announce that Golden Bay Fruit has signed to be the Union’s Brand Sponsor of Female rugby. This will include front of jersey branding of the Tasman Mako Farah Palmer Cup team, the Academy program, the Tasman Trophy club competition, and other Tasman female representative teams.

The Tasman Mako were handed home games against Northland, Waikato, Bay of Plenty, Southland and Canterbury when the revised Mitre 10 Cup provincial rugby draw was released by NZR.
