Investing in the people who make our neighbourhoods home: proudly supporting Origin Sport

At Wolfbrook, we've always believed great neighbourhoods are shaped not only by the homes within them but by the people, energy and local pride that bring communities to life.

That’s why we’re proud to support Origin Sport, a touch rugby programme in Spreydon that has become a gathering place for players, families and supporters from across Christchurch. 

Origin Sport brings together teams from many of the suburbs where Wolfbrook builds. This creates a genuine link between our developments and the people who call these areas home. It’s a grassroots initiative driven by connection, teamwork and belonging, the same values we hold at the centre of our work. 

Grassroots sport plays an important role in helping tamariki, young people and adults grow their confidence and strengthen their sense of identity. It provides space for friendships to form, skills to develop and local pride to flourish. Supporting programmes like Origin Sport reflects our belief that vibrant neighbourhoods are built from the inside out and nurtured by the organisations and volunteers who uplift the people around them. 

Our partnership with Origin Sport is one of the ways Wolfbrook gives back to the places we help shape. We know that strong neighbourhoods don’t happen by accident. They grow when local initiatives have the resources, support and community backing to thrive. 

Wolfbrook Property Group CEO Guy Randall says this sponsorship embodies what matters most to us. 

“As a developer, it’s easy to think our job starts and ends with construction. But we’ve always believed our responsibility extends far beyond the homes we build. Supporting community-led initiatives like Origin Sport is one way we invest in the people who make these neighbourhoods vibrant, resilient and full of life.” 

Origin Sport founder Greg Spence also recognises the difference meaningful support makes, noting that Wolfbrook’s contribution helps keep the programme accessible and welcoming for families across the city. 

As Wolfbrook continues to grow, so does our commitment to supporting the wellbeing, connection and future of the neighbourhoods we’re proud to be part of. We’re more than a property developer. We’re a long-term community partner, standing alongside the people who make Christchurch such a special place to call home.
