Parklands United (A.F.C.) is a soccer club in Christchurch, New Zealand.
History
Parklands United was first formed as North Beach Soccer Club in 1967. It was initially formed with the goal of playing social Sunday soccer against hotels and business houses in and around Christchurch. Former coach and administrator Gordon Patterson was one of those that helped run the club from its small hall on Beach Road in New Brighton, Christchurch, New Zealand. It attracted a large number of players from the Parklands/Queenspark and New Brighton area and went on to grow and develop into a large size club by the mid-1990s, when the club changed its name to Parklands United in 1996. It was then that the clubhouse moved to its present location in Queenspark, Parklands, Christchurch, New Zealand.
