OLD BOYS MARIST

A bold move was made when old rugby rival clubs Marist and Old Boys, considered the proposal to ammalgamate into a single club. It is perceived that the new club will be more competetive with a greater depth of talent to draw upon in the coming football seasons. The club will be known as Gisborne Old Boys Marist and their main sponsor will be Enterprise Motor Warehouse.
