The branch has welcomed the opportunity to join the Club’s worldwide community of fans and are hoping their formation will grow their presence in Queenstown.
Founder Alex is a lifelong fan and hopes one day he will be able to experience a Trophy Tour in New Zealand.
“I started following City at a young age and have been a fan since 2008,” he explained.
“I fell in love with each player. I was a huge fan of Robinho, whilst Shaun Wright-Phillips, Vincent Kompany and Pablo Zabaleta were also some of my favourites.
“We started this club to share our passion and to have a community of Cityzens in New Zealand.
“Our goal is to have regular meetings, grow as a club and hopefully later on, experience a Trophy Tour in Queenstown.
“Becoming an official branch for us means being part of Manchester City, being recognised for our dedication and a chance to be involved with the global City community.”
