To coincide with the opening match of the 2023 Super Rugby Aupiki competition between the Hurricanes Poua and Chiefs Manawa at the Levin Domain on Saturday 25 February, Horowhenua will host an exhibition exploring the untold story of women's rugby in Aotearoa.

The Herstory of Womens Rugby exhibition from the New Zealand Rugby Museum charts the rise of women's rugby in New Zealand, from the first flickers of interest in 1888 to the World Cup victories of the Black Ferns.

It chronicles the sport from its beginnings to modern day popularity with video interviews, an interactive touch screen, selfie backdrops, and more.

Te Takeretanga o Kura-hau-pō will host the exhibition from Friday 24 February to Monday 27 February 2023 during the community centre's usual opening hours.
