So the Autumnal sun was shining, and it made for a warm morning as our U8s started their first ever fixture. So after going through the basics, we split the team into two teams that were plating two SWF teams. There were a few nerves, but as the game developed you could see how each of the players was becoming more confident in what was needed. The important things were to pass backwards, not to dive over the try line, and to make sure we caught and ran with the ball having both hands on it. We also learnt about the importance of going forward, and not to try and run sideways, or backwards. But the most important thing was to have fun!
Lots of tries were scored, and even more tags grabbed! So well done to:
Kimi
Charlie
Thomas
Sam
Harry
Wyatt
Quentin
Matthew (our loaned player)
Keep up that development and you'll all be playing like superstars very soon!
