ABOUT PUKEKOHE AFC

Pukekohe AFC is a long-standing football club in the Franklin community and enjoys a membership of nearly 600 active players.

Our aim is to provide a safe and enjoyable environment that encourages all participants to reach their full footballing potential in all age groups. We run a competitive winter league where adults, youth and juniors are placed in teams to play, and in the 8 weeks prior to Christmas we also run a 5-a-side league, where anyone can enter a team with their friends and have fun.

We cater for footballers of all ages and abilities and aims to better their footballing confidence and skills. Members have access to specialised coaching and skill-specific training sessions during the season (like goalkeeper training). We also offer school holiday programmes and a Summer 5-aside competition, which are both open to the community. Talented footballers are scouted by the Federation Talent Centre (FTC) for further development and our affiliation with Franklin United provides our elite players with a pathway to the top.

Franklin United is the high-performance football club for the Counties/Franklin region between the Waikato and Auckland, supported by the region’s member community football clubs including Drury, Pukekohe and Tuakau.
Franklin United senior teams play in the men’s NRFL and Women’s NRF Championship, and Franklin Youth Talent Centre teams play in NRF age-group grades.
