Sport Maoris and Summer Sports by Kara Puketapu Although we are now enjoying our winter sports, especially rugby, rugby league, basketball and hockey, all sportsmen are probably beginning to think about the coming summer season. Most Maori sportsmen probably don't give very much thought to what they will do during the summer. We must ask ourselves why this is so, and whether or not there should be more Maoris indulging in competitive summer sports. This is a vital question to the future of New Zealand sport in general, as the potential of Maoris as cricketers, tennis players, swimmers and athletes must be immense. From the little that has been seen of those Maoris who have succeeded and are succeeding in summer sports, there is no apparent reason why they should not produce top-line summer sportsmen.
