With the Blues offering family-friendly afternoon games, and the region looking forward to life out of lockdown, it’s promising to be a WAHU summer. 

WAHU, who offer a massive array of fun and safe games and activities for the outdoors, are the new partner of the Blues, backing the Little Blues rugby programme for 2022. 

WAHU, initially founded in Queensland and synonymous with sport and beach activities, embrace all aspects of classic outdoor kiwi lifestyle. 

It is all about fun in the sun, encouraging families to “Bring a Kid to Footy.”  

WAHU will be the brand behind our young kids who will play curtain-raisers ahead of the Blues games, plus a lucky WAHU Ball Runner will run out the match ball and the kids will form a WAHU Guard of Honour when the Blues team takes the field. 

The company produces a range of unique backyard games and beach toys ideal for family trips to the beach, the park, pool parties or the backyard barbeque.  

“We want families to come to the games, especially the afternoon games, and to give mum, dad and the kids an enjoyable and fun experience,” said Blues GM Commercial, Todd Hewitt. 

“We could not have linked with a more ideal partner in WAHU. They have been incredibly popular for over 20 years with their unique and colourful brand suited for almost all aspects of outdoor active lifestyle. 

“Our young fans are sure to have a lot of fun along the way and some unique experiences with WAHU and the Blues.” 

For WAHU, it all about fun, and their brightly coloured toys and games display the company’s desire not to take themselves too seriously but look and feel cool. 

Their products include the footy trainer, both mini and standard WAHU Footys, the best-selling Surfer Dudes, Hole in Won packs, Bash Sets and High Bounce Balls, all in multi-coloured fun. 

Andrew Lee, General Manager of Goliath Australia/New Zealand says: ‘Rugby has always been a big part of family fun in New Zealand, and that’s what WAHU is all about.  

“Our partnership just lets us do more of what we love—bring outdoors fun and games to families around the world. And to do it with the Blues is an absolute pleasure.’ 

“Partnering with a phenomenal team like the Blues is a tremendous thrill. WAHU customers, from youngest to oldest, are huge sports fans, whether that’s playing footy in the backyard, or cricket on the beach, or watching their favourite team take to the field. We are tremendously proud to be able to support the Blues through this partnership.”
