The league will consist of 12 teams and will provide tamariki with a regular opportunity to play basketball in a relaxed, positive and well-organised environment.
The name Ki Te Rāwhiti reflects the league's connection to the eastern communities of Ōtautahi. Rāwhiti refers to the east/eastern direction and provides the league with a strong sense of place and identity. It also provides an appropriate metaphor for the kaupapa of young people moving forward, developing and progressing towards future opportunities.
The league is intended to be more than simply a basketball competition. It will provide a space where tamariki can develop their basketball skills while also building confidence, friendships, positive relationships and a sense of belonging.
A key feature of Ki Te Rāwhiti 3v3 will be the incorporation of tikanga Māori into the playing environment. Six tikanga-based awards will recognise positive behaviour demonstrated by players during each game.
