RBA Launch Event
Auckland | April 2026
The Rongotai BEST Academy officially launched in Auckland on 15 April 2026, bringing together old boys, trustees, supporters and members of the wider Rongotai community for an evening of connection and conversation.
Hosted by Jim Marsh and High Performer Building, the event was an opportunity to share the story behind RBA, celebrate the work already underway, and look ahead to the Academy’s future growth.
Guests heard about RBA’s charitable registration, its free football coaching programmes, and the ambition to expand support across the wider Rongotai school community over time.
The evening also included a special acknowledgement of All White and RBA Ambassador Jesse Randall, alongside Football Director Wynton Rufer, with both presented Rongotai College caps in recognition of their All Whites achievements.
Thank you to everyone who attended, donated, supported the auction, or helped make the evening possible.
