Ten years, One vaka – our Anniversary Jersey has landed 🇳🇺

This 2026 Pasifika Youth Cup 🏆 strip is a modern take on the very first Auckland 🇳🇺 Rugby League rep jersey, linking a decade of teams who have worn our colours and those still to come.

It’s the same design worn when Heilum Luki (now North Queensland Cowboys) 🇳🇺 first represented Niue at the inaugural Pasifika Youth Cup 🏆, and now it carries the next generation of Niue players and communities – island and diaspora – onto the field together.

This jersey is the next step in building 🇳🇺 Rugby League from the ground up and uniting all our Niue rugby league pathways under one vaka 🤝. Watch this space as we launch our jersey sponsorship campaign soon and create ways for you to invest in the future of Niue Rugby League International 🇳🇺

Niue Rugby League International is proud to unveil our new official logo – a crest that carries Niue on-island and across the world into its next chapter in rugby league.

This living emblem holds the Niue flag at its centre, symbolising identity, unity, and responsibility for our players, supporters, and leaders everywhere. The shield, island pathways connecting villages, hiapo-inspired patterns honouring Niuean women, and crossed katoua tika reflect our protection, pride, resilience, guardianship, and warrior heritage on and off the field.

With golden yellow, deep blue, red, white, and earth brown drawn from our land, sea, and flag, this crest represents all Niue communities on the island, in Aotearoa New Zealand, Australia, and across the wider diaspora. Our heartfelt thanks to Zac Manukuo and TN One for designing and gifting this logo to Niue Rugby League International.

Every time this crest is worn or displayed, it should reflect cultural integrity, collective responsibility, and pride in Niue, our villages, and our people wherever they stand in the world. Join us as we step forward together – One Vision. One Pathway. One Nation.

Vaka-to-Vaka | Niue Rugby League Pathways

Niue Island 🇳🇺, New Zealand 🇳🇿, and Australia🇦🇺 are uniting to build a long-term rugby league future for our people – one vaka, one journey, one pathway 🏉

We are proud to launch the Vaka-to-Vaka Rugby League Pathway Program – a connected system that supports 🇳🇺 heritage players from youth grades through to senior international level.

This includes an international player database for all 🇳🇺 heritage athletes and those who represent 🇳🇺 in our teams, so we can track, support, and grow our talent wherever they live.

Vaka-to-Vaka is not a short-term fix. Everything we are building now is for the long-term future of 🇳🇺 Rugby League International – aligning coaching, player development, and high-performance standards across Niue, New Zealand, and Australia.

Coaches, players, and families of Niuean heritage – this is your invitation to join the movement, help shape our pathway, and keep our next generation on the Front Foot as we build towards the Pasifika Youth Cup, October/November 2026, and beyond 🙌
