Rugby Girls

...GOOD WORK GIRL :) BE PROUD ...

Even though we lost with pride but still, won in our hearts. Us year7 and 8's rugby girls had a lot of fun tackling, scoring tries and also representing our school. About 8:30 in the morning, twenty-two talented girls got a chance to play in the rugby girls semi finals, at College Rifles.

At first we unpacked our package in this small room where everybody else put their package. Us rugby girls slipped on our Rugby boots, then shoved our mouthgurds on, and jogged out on the field.

After having a little warm up, and refreshing of how we'll gonna play. We realised that we were versing, Kelston intermediate girls, even though we were the smallest girls there, at least we played hard, and give it all our best.

Kelston girls, we're very challenging to play against, but at the end we lost by 1-5. After our first game, against Kelston girls, we showed our sportsmanship, then took a knee to where the parents were and started stretching with me leading them. Our girls had our first 15 minuet break. Each of us patted our backs, gave each other encouragements, and gave out feedback.

After a reflection from our first game we took our mistakes and improved them in our next game, against the talented Green Meadow school. after scoring 3 try's we lost against Green Meadow, 3-5. We did our cheer, lined up and shook hands of Green Meadow players.

Later, after our second game we had a buy for about half and hour. During that hour we had something to eat and secondly ran on the field to talk about our highlights, what we need to work on, also concentrate on the game and techniques.

Our last game was against a school from out north, and with a help from me and the other talented girls we won our last game. Which was exciting, even though we were the smallest girls we won our last game, just to keep us happy and to finish off properly.

Once again I would like to again say a big THANK YOU! to Miss Va'afusuaga for coaching us girls also making us year 8's happy for our last year. Also THANK YOU  to Mum, Auntie, and cousins, also my niece for your support, I appreciate it . Love you's all :)
