- Going to Rotorua
- First games
- Finals
In the holidays i went to Rotorua for a maori rugby league tournament. We travelled down in two vans when we arrived to our marae we waited to get powhiri into the marae. Hearing the karanga we slowly walked into the marae the kaumatua stood to speak about whakapapa of the marae. We stayed at at one of the four tapu maraes around the roto.
The next day we were getting amped for our games we were going to play. We versed Waikato first and got nilled. The next game we scored three tries and got all of our kicks over the post. Waiting anxiously for next game we heard that they forfeit so we packed up our things and went to the Polynesian spa pools to relax our muscles.
It was finals we training for our last game fighting for third or fourth spot.
We scored two tries on the first half. On the next half we carved up neck a neck to deceiver who was going to win. We all cheered as the horn went of and that we were the winners of our finals coming back from two tries on first half and then taking third place in the whole tournament.
