The Rundle Cup is a trophy contested between the rugby teams of the West Coast and Buller.

Origins

The Rundle Cup was donated to the West Coast provincial union during their Annual General Meeting at the Albion Hotel on the 24th of May 1911 by Wlliam Rundle as a trophy for Buller-West Coast matches. Rundle was a local business man in the mining industry and former player for the Grey Football Club. He later perished on the frontline in France during World War One. The first contest for the cup was held in 1911 in Westport and was won by Buller.

Current Holders

Buller currently hold the cup having won it 20-19 away at Greymouth in 2008.
