Kai ora koutou ma. Des toku ingoa. Kei riri mai mo oku kupu. . . ka timata au i te ako o te reo. The tuakana & I mahi as a referees for Wellys Turbo Touch. In celebration of Te Reo o te Wiki, I wanted us to korero our ref calls in our wonderful language. Hoi ano, didn't want to overwhelm our tauiwi brothers & sisters with complicated kupu (myself included) so kept it simple as possible. So me & my brothers came up with these kupu. Touch one - Pa tuatahi Touch two - Pa tuarua Hold - Mau Pass - Whiua Ora - Live Teams embraced the integration with smiles and "kia ora" after. We thanked each tima for allowing us to share a little bit of our beautiful Culture. I have video footage which I'll put to our Turbo Touch Wellington page & website. We have another round on Ratapu. Hopefully try to convince our Boss to give prizes for team Reo participation. Toku koha ki te miriona mihana. Ka nui te mihi ki nga tangata katoa o tenei kaupapa #Reomāori @reomaori
