Hautapu Sports’ senior rugby teams have started their Waikato competitions with some high-scoring wins.

It was no different on Saturday, May 10, when the club’s three men’s teams ran in more than 150 points between them in games at Memorial Park.

Photographer Jane Thompson was there to cover the Development side’s win against Morrinsville Sports, and to share some of her images, which can be seen at Flickr.

Here’s some of the action from the Premier B match:
