My First Rugby Game for the School

On Friday the 7th of May the Year 5 and 6 girls and boys had their first rugby game againstViscount School. Before we left our school, we had to wait for a while and had our morning tea. Then we got changed in to our rugby gears that we were going to play in. When we finished changing, we had to go to the hall and wait for the bus to arrive. When the bus arrived the girls lined up first and got to sit at the back of the bus which were the best seats. On our way to Mangere we sang songs. When we finally got there, we had a little warm up. After our warm up, it was time to play. When it was time to play, we thought that they were going to be bigger than us but there were only a few big girls and the rest were skinny. In our team we all tried our hardest but we lost. Viscount were passing the ball and we didn't spread out to try to tackle them but I think the player of the day should be Lesley Mapa because it took a lot of girls to tackle her when she ran hard with the ball. The overs tried their hardest too but they lost as well. Only the unders team won their game. Finally it was time to go back to school. It was a rough day and I can't wait until we play them again.
