Super 8 is the association of boys' schools in the central North Island of New Zealand. The association is mainly a sporting one, which was established in 1997 in response to the lack of competition that the schools faced in their home regions. The schools are some of the top sporting schools in New Zealand. Super 8 is the first high school competition in New Zealand to sign with a television company. Every week a Super 8 rugby match will be chosen and streamed on Maori Television, along with various other sporting finals.
