Kiwi Sport

This week Thursday we had kiwi sport on the courts with coach Mr Hamish. Today we were focusing on rippa. First everyone had to get a belt and 2 tags to put on each side of the belt. In the first activity we played a everybody is it where everyone was in and people had to try to get other people's tag and put the belt on their. We had to stay in a certain area. Once you got a tag from someone else, you could put it on your own belt. The goal was to get as much tags on your belt. For the first few games the most people got was 4. For the last round I was really focused on stealing tags for my own, and I was able to get the most with 7. Next we played rats and rabbits where there were two teams. To find the teams, we had to all get into partners and one partner stood on one side and the other partner stood on the other side. My partner was Sandra. On one side there was a row of yellow cones and on the other, there were orange cones. If Mr Hamish said orange, the people that were on the side of the orange had to run and the partners had to get them and rip their tag off. If Mr Hamish said yellow, then the yellow side had to run and their partner had to get them and rip their tag off. The next game we played was Ripparush which was like bullrush but it is rippa-rugby style. Since me and Sione won the last game we were the taggers or rippers while everyone one else were the runners. Mr Hamish would say something and whoever had it they would run, and if he whistled everyone ran. If you tag was ripped by one of the rippers then you had to join them. For the last activity we were split into 3 teams, One team put on bibs and the other 2 were non bibs. 2 Teams played at a time. This game we played was the same game we played last week. After a few rounds the bibs or non bibs team switched over with the team that wasn't playing. Some teams had good communication and passing which lead them to scoring many goals. Finally we took off the belts and tagged and went back to class.
