The Marist Saints is a rugby league club based in Mount Albert, New Zealand. They regularly feature in the Fox Memorial, the premier division in Auckland Rugby League. However, they are going through a rebuilding phase and after competing in the 2nd tier competition Sharman Cup in 2010, they have now been promoted to the top Auckland rugby league competition, The Fox Memorial Shield.
