Haka of the All Blacks
The All Blacks, the international rugby union team of New Zealand, perform a haka (MÄori war dance) immediately prior to international matches In their 2006 test match against Wales, the All Blacks opted to perform the Haka Ka Mate within their dressing room prior to the match. This was the result of the Welsh rugby union's decision that the Welsh national anthem, Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau would be played after the Haka, not before as is traditional.
