BREAKING NEWS: Uncle Don forgot it was Aunty Jess's birthday this weekend. Classic. Tell your tastebuds to stress less though: with ADAM pledging to take up the spatula, and SINÉAD baking for the Tuck Shop, we can guarantee there won't be any ewes outside of the paddocks. See you all soon x

The #fabtcg C*lling: Taihape 2025 is THIS WEEKEND! Here are 3 things to BRING, and 3 things to SUSS. (You've also been emailed a survival guide if you want to read the same thing but longer) Who's got what it takes to take down the reigning champion Kieran ‘Barefoot Wizard’ Carnegie...?! 🧙

😱😱😱 LIV FROM TEA & TCG WILL BE AT TAIHAPE!!! Liv's beloved breakout #fabtcg youtube channel @teaandtcg.bsky.social has quickly grown more followers than Taihape's ENTIRE regional population. What's more, she's bringing a selection of her favourite teas for you to enjoy at the tuck shop! Shot Liv!

Christchurch is nice and all, but… do they have a gumboot toss?! We're bringing back the famous gumboot toss, BBQ, a mean afterparty, and of course… prizes! Promos galore, brand new exclusive deepfried heroes for Top 8, custom playmats for Top 4, and a 24-carat gold foil Tunic alter for the Champ!

The format for C*lling: Taihape is everybody’s favourite – Classic Constructed… but like the road you take to grandpa's farm, it has few twists! And is generally a bit mucky. NEW IN 2025, players brave enough to rep a hero with <100 LL points will receive a special Spirit of Mangaweka bonus... 👀

The C*lling Taihape is a safe and inclusive place for players of all backgrounds to come together and play great games 💖 To celebrate inclusivity, we made some EXCLUSIVE PROMOS! Players identifying as a woman or LGBTQIA+ get an ALT ART Kin Oath, made in collab with @rainbowxpitch.bsky.social. Chur!

STOKED to announce that JAPAN'S NATIONAL CHAMPION will be attending #TheC*llingTaihape! Xavier calculates it will take an 80 minute train ride from his home in Osaka to reach the nearest #sheep. Lock your ticket today to join us for some very silly #fabtcg at events.humanitix.com/taihape
