Rules
The defender begins the game by calling "Hei tama tu tama" and places their hands in one of the
four positions described above.
The challenger replies with "Hei tama tu tama" and does a different action.
When one player catches the other doing the same action, that player calls "Hei tama tu tama rā!"
and scores a point.
The winner of the point then re‐starts the set, saying "Tahi. Hei tama tu tama” and play continues
until a player is caught out again.
Each time a player scores a point, they re‐start the set by saying the number of points they now
have followed by "Hei tama tu tama."
The game continues until one player reaches ten points – this completes the set.

Suggested approach



Hei Tama Tu Tama, like many early games, was designed to encourage mental dexterity. Even
though the winning was important, it was the way in which competitors won that was the focus.
The cheeky cajoling, the smile and grimace to put your opponent off were all part of the game.
The pedagogy is ako, in which games are always supportive. This game is played using the upper
body, arms, and hands, ensuring a balanced position.
