AFL Training

 Group B did skills with Australian Football League.

First, our coach told us what we learn last week . It was a different coach from last secession. We learnt the hand ball pass and the drop punt. 

Next, I practiced the tackling skill and the ruck skill. We had to tackle at the chest and stomach. The ruck skill is where the referee throws the ball in the air, and the two tall players out of the two teams has to try an hit first, kind of like basketball.

Lastly, I practiced the we learnt a new technique called ruck. The ruck technique uses the tip off from basketball. our coach said that at the start of the game someone will throw up the ball and the two people will try and hit the ball to the ground. The teams will pick the tallest person to try and win the ruck or the tip off. 

I need to work on my ruck because I can't jump high.
