The New Zealand Natives' football team before playing Queensland in July 1889
The 1888–1889 New Zealand Native football team were the first oversea's touring rugby football team from the Southern Hemisphere. The team toured the British Isles, Australia, and New Zealand in 1888 and 1889. Although the team mainly played rugby union games it also played several Victorian Rules, and Association football matches. The team won 78 of their 107 rugby matches and three of their Victorian Rules matches. Their tour of the British Isles was the first by a New Zealand rugby team – the next was not until the Original All Blacks tour of 1905.[1] The squad of 26 was privately organised and was composed mainly of players of Maori ancestry, although several Pakeha were included in the squad.
