context_page_description: The Hibiscus Coast Raiders are a rugby league club based on the Hibiscus Coast, New Zealand. They compete in Auckland Rugby League's Fox Memorial competition and between 2000 and 2005 were also involved in the Bartercard Cup competition.
context_section_description: The club was formed in 1982 by a group of players that included former Kiwi Ken Stirling.
  In 1997 the club moved from its original location at Edith Hopper Park to Stanmore Bay Reserve.
  Before Brian McClennan took over as coach in the late 1990s they were a third division side, but the club enjoyed success and growth to the point where in 1998, the Premiers won the Northern Regional Cup and we were invited to move up into the Fox Memorial Tournament. They were then invited to be part of the New Zealand Rugby League's new Bartercard Cup in 2000 and the club won the 2001 Bartercard Cup.
