Good sports

Franklin has a wealth of affordable sports options for residents of all ages and abilities. Whether seeking competitive or social sports, recreational relaxation or an opportunity to coach or become a volunteer, there is no shortage of options for young and old.

Catering for everything from the mainstream to more unusual sports, amateurs to professionals, there are various facilities located across our region.

Navigation Homes Stadium, Pukekohe Park (home to horse and motor racing), and Pukekohe’s Franklin Pool and Leisure are just the tip of the iceberg in terms of major sporting facilities.

Franklin features numerous fitness centres, Pilates studios, yoga classes, and other facilities to help residents stay fit and healthy.

Also, check out local clubs, which provide everything from bowling and tennis, to athletics, softball, martial arts, rugby, rugby league, netball, cricket, soccer, gymnastics and a host of other physical pastimes. Most clubs welcome everyone from juniors right through to ‘old boys’.

Unsurprisingly for a largely rural region, Franklin also offers much to hunters and fishers and features a number of pony clubs, polo and polocrosse grounds and other equestrian sports.

As we are bordered on two sides by beaches, water sports (such as surfing, kayaking and surf lifesaving) are also popular pursuits for active and energetic members of our community.
