Rugby League

Rugby League

Today we played Rugby League on the big bottom court.  Our coaches were Matu and Paul.  Coach Matu and coach Paul brought lots of balls in a huge red and blue mesh bag.  First we jogged around the court to warm up.  Then we played octopus. 

Next we learnt about some different kinds of kicks.

We learnt about a bomb kick.  A bomb kick is when you kick the yellow rugby ball up high in the sky.  A chip kick is when you kick the ball up high and then your partner catches the ball.  Oliver was my partner.  He was really funny because when we played the game called rock, paper, scissors, dragon Oliver was slow doing the rock, paper, scissors, and I did it fast.  I won the game.

Later coach Matu and coach Paul taught us to spin with the ball while running.  We raced at the same time.  It was very cool because I could run very fast.  It was fun at rugby league.
