Phase: Warm Up

Split the class into three even teams. Each team has a Ki and passes it amongst their team mates, focussing on tagging the Pou to collect points. Players can not move with the Ki. Once players understand this component, introduce the Ki Oma scoring method. Players may choose to run with the Ki through Te Roto zone and into Pawero zone to 'bank' their points, before restarting play. 

Once players understand this, introduce a rule where dropping the Ki will result in all points that have not been 'banked' to be lost. This will encourage players to 'bank' their points at more appropriate times.
