Kiwi Sport

Today we had Kiwi sport on the netball courts with Andy. We were still practising the Throw which is the last thing out of Run, Jump, Throw. The first activity we did was the Fruit game we had to get into 4 groups of 5 or 6 and choose a name of a fruit for our group name. In my group I had Alayah, Charlize, Sandra, Florence and Sakina our name was group cherries. We played in the center third of the net ball court. Each team had to go to on corner of the third and if for example said " Cherries, Bananas" Cherries would have to swap with Bananas we had to try and remember which team went where. In the center circle Our teacher stood there and his name was Fruit Bowl and if Andy called "Fruit Bowl" out all the groups would have to rush to the middle. Then we talked about last weeks discus and the techniques/skills for it. Andy told us about shot put which is similar to discus instead it is a ball and we have to have it "Dirt fingers, dirty neck, clean palm and elbows up"position. Like discus if you were right face the hall and if you were left face the other way. Then we have to get low into the chin, knee, toe all in a row position bring your self up and throw, you cant bring the ball of your neck. We only did this with a practise ball that was green. We kept practising this so we could get use to it. We got into pairs and one pair would try it then the next and repeat. Soon Run, Jump, Throw was over I had a really fun time doing shot put
