The DNA of Kukri Sports dates back to 1979, when the British Army Gurkhas and RAF joined together to create a stronger rugby club, the Flying Kukris. They officially became one club, when in true Kukri Sports tradition, a tailor was tasked with stitching the shirts of both clubs together to create a bespoke playing kit.

In 1999, we were inspired by and created with the same values as that of the Army and RAF soldiers in the Flying Kukris. These being: quality, passion, diversity, professionalism and teamwork.

Our mission from the outset was to give clubs a choice, an identity, and to be proud of their club colours. With quality product and a professional service, we quickly established ourselves as a leading sports brand.

From humble beginnings, we now pride ourselves on being an international sportswear manufacturer supplying bespoke teamwear for over 100 sports.

AURFC is extremely grateful for the support of the Mike Cormack Foundation which was set up to honour the memory of Life Member Mike Cormack who sadly passed away in 2012.

Mike was a passionate Varsity man and had a huge impact on the direction of the club during a 50+ year association starting from his playing days during the 1960's.

Mike was not only an outstanding senior and representative player, he was also a tireless and committed worker and visionary for the Auckland University Rugby Football Club. He gave outstanding service as a player, a coach, a selector, a tour manager, a fund raiser and as an administrator. Mike was instrumental in helping to establish the club in it's current location at Colin Maiden Park and also in creating the original Keystone Foundation which secured the financial position of the club in the late 1970's.
