Ki o Rahi is a traditional Maori sport that has grown in popularity over the past few years. It is the only sport where we combine with our brothers at Raukura, so it is a co-ed sport that will usually involve 8 boys and 6 girls. The sport of ki o rahi combines skills from touch, netball and tag football so even if you don’t know exactly how to play, if you can catch, pass and run with a ball then come and give this exciting game a go.
