ARTIFICIAL TURF COMMUNITY MEETING
THE COAST NEEDS AN ARTIFICIAL TURF!
Kapiti Coast United, Te Kotahitanga FC and the other football clubs on the Coast are coming together to talk about the urgent need for an artificial turf in our region.
Too many training sessions are lost every year due to poor weather and field conditions, directly affecting player development across all ages. An artificial turf would change that.
- Keen to know more?
- Willing to help?
- Have ideas to share?

Come along and be part of the conversation:
Thursday 4th September 2025
6:00 – 7:00pm
Waikanae Bowling Club, 356 Te Moana Road, Waikanae

Your voice matters! Let’s build the future of football on the Coast!
