On Friday 21st September, Mike Sage from the Newport Gwent Dragons came to our school, Ysgol Gymraeg Y Ffin, to help us develop our rugby skills through fun, active games. This is preparation for competing in a local tournament.
We played lots of different games starting off with warming up by running and dodging inside a large square. We were then given specific drills to do if he called certain player’s names out. We really enjoyed the game that tested our responses. Mike would call out a colour, we had to run towards cones of that colour. He made this a challenge for us by either pointing in the opposite direction or changing his mind about the colours!
We thoroughly enjoyed our first session with Mike and we are all looking forward to our next session.
