Kia ora Warriors

Rugby League –

The New Zealand Warriors have departed the Central Coast this week, to join the NRL’s COVID bubble in Queensland.

It comes after Nathan Brown’s squad has spent the majority of the last two seasons in Terrigal.

The club thanked the local community for providing a perfect home away from home.

“We’re proud to have represented the Central Coast; Thanks for letting us be a part of your community,” said Warriors CEO Cameron George.

“We really immersed ourselves in the community and they became like whānau.

“We appreciate the support and hospitality over the last two years, the region’s become a very big part of our history.”

The Warriors will spend the next two weeks in isolation on the Gold Coast before finding alternate accommodation.
