HUNGERBALL® had a blast at the #CMGames23! This was the second year of the games, which are an opportunity for 1500 young people from across Counties Manukau to compete in an Aims Games-like event over three days. Bruce Pulman Park, Takanini, was literally pumping with hundreds of energised tamariki representing their South Auckland schools.
The CM Games is a great opportunity to showcase the fun and inclusive nature of HUNGERBALL®, even in a competitive context. The Counties Manukau Games focus on including cultural and in-demand activities, and based on the feedback, we anticipate the games’ third year will involve even more schools playing HUNGERBALL®.
Tamariki played fair for the medals, but most of all – there were a whole lot of active kids having a whole lot of fun.
Thanks to Cathie Ellice from Jean Batten School, and the tamariki for sharing their thoughts on HUNGERBALL at the CM Games 2023.
