Rugby!

In the second week of the English experience camp, I've begun to introduce the the kids to a variety of sports that they may not have been exposed to before... In this case, my personal favourite... RUGBY!

Picture one, We've got a passing game going on, the emphasis here is on getting the two most important parts of the game across to the students; communication and passing... That and the fact that its good fun.. especially when the rugby playing teacher is one of the first out.




I found that the kids were quick to get the hang of it and found myself having to run rather more than I had antipated, before long we had tries coming in from all angles, questionable refereeing and kids quick to point out my 'unfair' decision making.
A great laugh and a chance for the students to try their hand at something new... Plus for me it was a chance to talk about the upcoming Rugby World Cup.
