Grant Milne Touch Visit

Today we had a visit from Grant Milne from Otago Touch. It was a beautiful sunny day to get outside and get some exercise. We played many games and drills to help us with our touch skills. We worked a lot on our defence and working as a team on defence. Grant also helped improve our attacking skills and tactics of how to get around a defender.

We really appreciate Grant coming to Waiwera South to help us improve our skills and we are looking forward to using these skills in our touch teams this year.

It was a beautiful sunny day to be outside today. Greer was back to take us for some touch again. We warmed up with a game of tails where we had to grab the tail of another player and try to avoid ours getting taken. George was the winner of this game every time! We then moved on to our passing, dodging and defending skills before bringing these all together in a whole class game of touch. 

Its's great to see all of our skills improving. This will be important when we start playing our touch games.

Check out some photos of us below!
