Touch Rugby Training!



                                                     Touch Rugby


Stepping around the small orange cones, sweating to death, running up and down, small amount of wind blowing swiftly into our faces, passing the bouncy touch rugby ball around and around. Is there anything that we can’t do...?


Last Thursdays touch rugby lesson was awesome, very hot and with a swift wind blowing. Everyone felt excited to learn and gained some new skills and learnt new rules. I played and helped other students to get better than before. At Touch rugby we have an experienced, qualified, coach who is old and short, and whose name is Trevor.


Coach Trevor is coaching our senior block for the school Touch tournament. He taught us to be 10 metres back after a touch or else you're offside. As soon as you get touched you place the ball on the ground so the dummy half can scoop it up and pass it. 

Later on we played games, first was zig zag and pass. My team lost the first round but we got better than before and won the second round. Soon, we changed to another game that relates to teamwork and speed. We all had to get into a circle formation so we could pass the ball around clockwise. I came second in the first game and I lost in the other.

After the 45 minutes we felt we had an extraordinary touch session and we all wanted to play and learn more.
