Yesterday in P.E., we split up into four teams and played games against each other. Because the weather was good, we got to play outside and split the field in half so there were two games going at the same time! I really enjoyed playing full games like this! We got to work together with friends as a team and learning a lot as we go.
After yesterday, I definitely feel I understand all the rules of the game now, more so than I did when just practicing. It's great to put it in a game situation like that.
We are now going to a tag rugby blitz on the 7th of April, and I'm really looking forward to it! I think it will be a great experience and great fun!
Many do say that rugby is seen as a game mainly for males, but I disagree. I think it's a great team sport, quite competitive, a lot of fun, and I think that females can play too! :)
Over the past three weeks, we have had P.E. classes with Simon from the IRFU. This has been really good, and I think I've learned a lot about tag rugby. It's also been a lot of fun. We have done a lot of passing drills and I think i have improved my passing.
I am really enjoying the experience. I think without this experience, I would not get the chance to try tag rugby and learn so much. I think it should be interesting playing full games of tag rugby next week, but I think we will find it very good. For me, passing backwards, as it is the opposite of most sports, is the most difficult part!
I am looking forward to playing the games next week as I think it will be great to finally use and put all of our drills and training with passing etc. to work and to the test! :)
