Rugby Skills with Andrew Goodman

On Friday, Andrew Goodman came to school to teach us some rugby skills. He is a Tasman Mako. He tought us the grubber. The grubber is a little kick across the ground. Jay, Levi, and I got in a big triangle and did some grubbers. Then he tought us a punt. The punt is a huge kick in the air. We got in a big triangle again and did some punts. I kicked to Jay and it got in the soccer goal instead of the tryline. Hahaha. Then we played rippa rugby. I was the team captain for the Highlanders, my favourite team. Levi was the team captain for the Crusaders and Carlee was the team captain for the Chiefs. First, it was the Highlanders vs. the Crusaders. The Crusaders won. So it was the Crusaders vs. the Chiefs. But the Chiefs won. So now it was the Highlanders vs the Chiefs. It was really tough but we won.

Time for the second round. The Crusaders were hard to handle but it paid off because we won again. We were doing well. The Crusaders did well again and they won - the Chiefs took a beating from the Crusaders. But it was a pay back because we smashed the Crusaders. So then it was the FINAL game. Highlanders vs. the Chiefs. It was rough but it was a nice win. Lets look at the score board. The Highlanders came first, the Crusaders came second and the Chiefs came last.
