A team sport contested between two teams which have thirteen players on the field at any one time. It is a contact sport that is played outside on a large grassed field. When a player gets the oval shaped ball, they either run with it, pass it, or kick it with the aim of placing the ball on or beyond the end line of the field, called the tryline. The opposition tackles the player with the ball and tries to stop the team with the ball from scoring.

I pūtakea mai te rīki i te whutupōro i Ingarangi, i te tau 1895.

Ka tīmata te whakataetae rīki ā-ao i te tau 1954 i Wīwī, ā, ka whakahaerehia i ia whā tau.
