Samoan cricket

Example

E ta'alo le taulaga kirikiti i le malae.

The village plays cricket at the village green.

Kirikiti is Samoa's own adaptation of British cricket, played with a triangular bat and rubber ball. Entire villages can field teams of fifty or more, and matches are as much about music, dancing, and feasting as the score itself.
