Aldo Cuccurullo Memorial Trophy

Each year Club Garibaldi of Wellington and Club Italia of Nelson interact through a soccer game between representatives of the two clubs.

The game is in memory of Aldo Cuccurullo, a young member of Club Italia who tragically died at a very young age.

Aldo was known as a gentle giant who gave of his time not only to play rugby league himself, but also to coach children.

The game, as you would expect of Italian football, is a tense one. Member supporters of each club travel to be at the game but the weekend is as much an opportunity to socialise and build friendships as it is to play football.
