The Samoan Barbarian is a selection of young girls having the opportunity to play for their Samoan heritage on behalf of their country.

Auckland

The Samoan Barbarians is unique, as the team are made up of players who are of Samoan heritage, reside in and currently attend secondary schools in and around NZ to play in the World School Sevens tournament on the 14th and 15th of December at Pakuranga Rugby Club, Auckland.

The team is selected by way of Muster days and open trials, from the trials a wider squad is selected and then eventually narrowing down the selection to the final 14 (12 playing, 2 non-playing) 2018 makes it Samoan Barbarians 3rd consecutive year in the International televised tournament.

The team has been running on ‘no budget’ with avid volunteers who understand the importance to provide opportunities to our young pacific female youth of today. In this time, we have seen two players go onto higher honours being selected for NZ 7s U18 ‘Baby Ferns’ team, as well as being part of the wider the NZ U18 7s Girls squad. In the past the team has played in borrowed ‘Men’s sizes playing strip’ for the last two years, a large part of the funds raised will go towards a playing kit that will remain with the team for years to come.

Samoan Barbarians team add excitement to this fresh tournament, because of their Pacific flare and no fear, hard hits which Pacific islanders are best known for in the game of rugby sevens.

As the need grows so do the resources, your support is vitally important as we are aware most of our players come from low socio-economic backgrounds.

However big or small your donation is to the team we are greatly appreciative.
