It's official ... Bush Sports are now affiliated to the Wairarapa-Bush Rugby Union.
An article in Wednesday's Times-Age broke the news that the Pahiatua-based club had the green light from the WBRFU to enter teams in their premier division and senior reserve competitions in 2011 providing the Manawatu union to which they were previously affiliated, agreed.
That agreement came yesterday, meaning the number of premier division teams are likely to increase from 10 to 12, Puketoi already having indicated a desire to return to the fold after withdrawing last year because of a player shortage.
