Sports Groups

Matamata Peddlers Cycling Club is a group of cyclists varying in ages and ability who enjoy cycling in good company for leisure, pleasure and for the challenge. Formed in 2003 the club is growing rapidly, with over 60 financial members to-date.

Matamata Swifts Association Football Club is the local guardian of the most significant sport on the planet. We provide a worthwhile, rewarding and stimulating football experience for any person wishing it; competitive or social, senior, youth or junior, male or female. Football is a sport for all the family. This is evidenced by the different generations of people currently involved as members of our club. Football also brings with it a diverse and wide range of cultures not possible through any other sport. It is a meeting place for 'new' New Zealanders as evidenced by the mix of the club’s current membership base.
 
Football is thriving at all levels in New Zealand and Matamata is no exception to this phenomenon. In terms of playing success, profile, membership and interest, things have never been stronger for football in Matamata. Through players, coaches, administrators, supporters, friends and family the sport of football touches the lives of a great part of our community.
 
Matamata Swifts AFC is the beating heart of our community.
