Ripper rugby

Today was our second session of ripper rugby. We attempted it across the road at the curk park like last week. We are still learning how to throw and catch a rugby ball. Also we are learning how to rip. We had the same couches which were Justice and Andrew.

Ripper rugby similar to rugby but in ripper rugby you have tags on your waist. When you get ripped you have to pass it to someone in your team. If you get ripped 5 or 6 times it's a hand over.

First we did started of practicing our throwing and catching.We lined up in four lines and then the first person in each line has to stand behind the cone on the opposite side. Then the second person in each line have to run forward and pass the ball to person next to. When we were throwing we had make sure we pass backwards and when we are catching the key is to make a W with your had. Once we got to the end the person in front of them has to pass it to them and then that person has to go to the back of the line.

Next we played an activity, this activity included the tags. For this activity we had to stay in a square and then we had to try to rip each others tags. The tags you ripped we had to give it to Justice. If both of our tags get ripped then we're out. We played two rounds of this activity. I won the last round.

Lastly we played a game of ripper rugby. It was girls verses boys. Since there were more boy than girls Justice and Andrew helped us. I was able to score one try. At the end of the game it ended being a tie. I scored one point for the girls and Taua scored one point for the boys. It was a close game.

After the session I was exhausted. I still enjoyed this session because I learnt how to rip better. I think this is a good sport to play.
