This was the playing top of the Northern Deaf Golf Team in the late 1990s to the early 2000s. The team was previously under the umbrella of Auckland Deaf Society for the NZ Deaf Games until 1996 when it was agreed to combine the Deaf Clubs in the North Island into two regions – Northern and Central. This came into play for the first time during the 39th New Zealand Deaf Games in Auckland, 1996.
