win a North Harbour Premiership adds a lot of intense rivalry and colour to the games between the two clubs. The often games are often very close in scorelines between the two teams. Glenfield v Mahurangi When Mahurangi RFC joined the Harbour club comp in 1989, Glenfield was their first game. This is classed as a traditional game for Mahurangi as Glenfield is the first club they played in the Harbour club competition. Glenfield v Takapuna Glenfield v Takapuna is one of North Harbour rugby's many suburban rivalries. Though when it comes to success both clubs are at opposite ends of the scale. Takapuna is by far the most successful North Harbour club winning twelve Harbour premierships. In the Auckland club competition days Takapuna was a regular team in the Auckland top division winning two Gallaher shields, whereas Glenfield played in the Auckland third division and were often on the end of some rather unflattering scorelines. Glenfield has met Takapuna twice in the North Harbour premiership final with Takapuna winning both times (2000 and 2006). Glenfield ended Takapuna's famous two year winning streak in 2001. Glenfield beat Takapuna in 2015, a game which was also Jeremy Hikuroa's 200th game for the Glenfield Premiers. Glenfield v Waitakere City Glenfield plays an annual pre–season fixture each year with Auckland club Waitakere City.
