The New Zealand Kiwis debuted their new haka ‘Te Iwi Kiwi’ against the Cook Islands in their Rugby League World Cup opening match on October 20 2013 in Doncaster, England.  They went on to win the match 50 – 0.

Led by hooker Isaac Luke, the haka acknowledges the multi-cultural makeup of the Kiwis and was created by the team members themselves, along with the help of a cultural advisor.
