Ki o rahi is a game between 2 teams, Kioma & Taniwha, the game is a little bit different then most games with balls. There are zones which certain teams can't go through, such as Te Roto, only Taniwha can stay in there but Kioma after touching pou and collecting points they can run in to score in Pawero. In Te Roto their can only be 3 Taniwha in there at a time or the ball is handed over. Depending on how the game is played (Touch, Rugby, Ripper etc) you will need different equipment, the basics are a Tupu (Bin) 7 Pou, a Ki or ball, Field marking and zone marking also team ID (Not Necessary).
To start the game the ball needs to be kicked off at Te Marama and then the ball can picked up by either team then the game starts, for Taniwha they need to get the ball and chuck it at the tupu if it hits the tupu the game keeps going until a penalty or Kioma gets the ball. Kioma win by hitting the 7 pou around the field and when the team thinks they have enough points they run in through Te roto and place the ball into Pawero, the amount of pou they touched converts to points then the game restarts.
