12 February 2022
Yesterday’s announcement that the minimum wage will increase by 6% to $21.20 in April is just another blow for clubs, says Clubs New Zealand.

Sports Update in response to Omicron
27 January 2022
We are once again devastated to be announcing the cancellation and/or postponement of several Clubs New Zealand Sports Tournaments.
We are in communication with host clubs and the convenors of upcoming tournaments to work through the various options and make decisions that are in best interests of the club and the participants. These decisions are not easy to make, and we know that the host clubs and convenors have poured hours into preparing for the tournaments.

Cancellation of the Clubs New Zealand 2022 Conference, AGM & EXPO
25 January 2022
It is with reluctance that the Board of Clubs New Zealand, National Office Team and Club Hastings have made the decision to cancel the Clubs New Zealand 2022 Conference, AGM and EXPO.
This is the third time that the Hastings event has been cancelled and we are all incredibly disappointed. It is impossible for Clubs New Zealand to run this event at the Red setting and with no clear indication from the Government on when we will move back to Orange, it was necessary to make this decision sooner rather than later.
