Netball

Netball

Talofa lava bloggers. Today I would like to tell you about our Netball lesson on Wednesday. We had two Netball teachers named Josina and Olivia. First they told us to play a game of infinite tag. Infinite tag is simple. Everyone is in and you have to try and tag everyone,if you get tagged. You have to sit down, but keep on eye on the person who tagged you. They might get tagged and that's your signal to get back up and keep running.

We played for a few minutes and then we went to do some exercises. The first exercise was high knees. We basically had to put our knees as high as possible. The next exercise was butt kicks. Butt kicks is when you kick your legs to your butt. Then we did Lunges. Lunges are when you step forward and try to bend as far as possible without your knee touching the ground. The next one you all probably know which is sprinting. When you run as fast as possible. After our exercises we sat down and our Netball teachers teached us about dodging. Dodging in netball is simple. When someone has a ball and they're trying to throw it to you but someone is in the way you take one step to either direction and make sure they follow you and then quickly step in the other direction and run. 

After that we played a game I don't remember the name of. But the rules were you tuck one bib in your pants and try and get other bibs,when you grab one. Bob down and tuck it into your pants, and they were no goose guarding. We had 2 minutes and whoever had the most won. We played twice and we moved on to another game that was kinda like capture the flag but you had to steal balls instead. The rules are simple. there two halves and two teams. One half belongs to one team and the other team has the other half. When someone from the opposing team steps on your side,you can tag them but when they aren't on your side you can't. The goal is to get a ball from the other side and bring it back without getting tagged. We also played twice and it ended up in a draw. After that we ended our session.
