Some of the money went to Western Heights High School football teams.
Girls' 1st XI player Caramia Ali, 16, said the money helped pay for the fees of an upcoming tournament, the cost of petrol and the hiring of vans.
She said they felt lucky and thankful, as it removed the stress of having to fundraise.
"It's a huge help, especially for the parents that have two children in our teams and it helps cut their expenses."
The market operates every Saturday at Kuirau Park and is open from 6am to 1.30pm in all weather.
Mr Adlam said the Rotorua Lakes Council had put in a new walking track so there was extra parking by the Aquatic Centre.
It would be getting signposted and would direct people to the market site, he said.
The market is the club's major fundraiser, with the cost per site $20 for a 3sq m site.
All proceeds raised from the market are put back into the community.
