Who hoo coach approach! The footballs flew through the air like a crazy flock of birds then crashing down like a damaged fighter jet and smashed into the bins with a thud. We cheered as we won the game. It was about precision. we were divided into small teams with a bin opposite us. To win you had to score 3 points. You got 1 point by hitting the front of the bin and 3 if it actually went in it.
Next we went over to ultimate frisbee run by Claire. She taught us how to catch a frisbee correctly (you snap like a crocodile) and how to throw it. You put your thumb on the top of the frisbee and the rest of your hands go on the bottom, then you whip it. We also played a tag game where when you get tagged you go in the catch motion so someone can save you by throwing you the frisbee.
Next we went over to hip hop in the performing arts room. Our coaches name was Elvic. I liked him because he had a good sense of humour he made some good jokes. We listened to a song that had really weird lyrics I can’t remember the song name or the Author but it was pretty cool. He taught us some different moves. One of them was stretching to your toes side to side. At the start you could make up any move you could. I’m happy that I didn’t dab (ps I HATE dabbing). I reckon hip hop was my favourite.
Next we did team work in the gym run by a lady called Taylah. We got into two groups and were put before a big sheet with squares on it we had to move from square to square in a certain way until we got to the end of the map. If you went on a wrong square you went to the back of the line. The only way you could go on the right squares was by memorising a map which you could only look at for only about ten seconds. The opposing team won. The main thing about that activity was communication and cooperation.
Next we did La crosse our coaches name was Brayden. The equipment you use is a ball and a metal pole with a plastic net on the end. You catch the ball with your net on the ground then it rolls in. We didn’t do much my partner and I (Seth) just moved around and passed the ball to each other. We could only pass under arm.
Next was baseball yes baseball. There were a few problems about that one. 1 my glove was huge (I bet even a person the size of the multiverse and infinity would still have room!) our coaches name was Oliver. We learnt about how to pass the ball to someone. First you put the ball through your legs while holding it then next you roll it along. you catch it with a baseball glove. If you throw with your right hand then you put the glove on your left.
Today was full of adventure and sport and it was great to try new things.
