Moturoa
FORMED 1938
as Moturoa. Changed name to Moturoa United. Changed name to Taranaki United in 1975.
Reverted to Moturoa in 1976, when all Taranaki clubs merged for a combined Central League
entry in 1976, using the Taranaki United name. Amalgamation discontinued in 1984.
Merged with New Plymouth City on a trial basis in 1989 and 1990, and played under that
