Sports

Hi this is my new sports page where I keep you updated with all the sports I am doing. //__** NETBALL: **__//

I have got into the top netball team at outram school. The team is made up of year 6, year 7 and year 8 kids. There are only three year 6 kids and i'm one of them. My other friends Courtney and Rachel are in the team too. We are all year 6 people. We all enjoy netball and that is great because we all work hard!:} Courtney, Rachel and I all got into rep touch. Yeah!!!!! We were all in the same touch team together. we were in the top team aswell. In the Alexandra tournament, we came 3rd overall in the top section. In the Dunedin tournament we came 2nd overall. I love playing netball. __//** GYMNASTICS: **//__

I do rhythmic gymnastics and that means six hours training a week. I am in level 4 which is the starting level for nationals. That means that out of my level they pick about 28 kids from the South Island to go up to the Nationals. That means that if I get into the team for Nationals then I have to go to Auckland for 5 days. Its during the school holidays though so I don't get any days off school. I can't wait to go to Auckland. Yeah, i have just been to Auckland for nationals. I came 13 of of 21. I am so proud of myself Since I got into nationals i had to train 9 hours a week. It was hard work but fun. I love gymnastics because you meet lots of new people and make lots of new friends.

**//__ RIPPER RUGBY: __//**

When we go back to school, I will be training for a ripper rugby tournament. We will go off and play other Dunedin schools. If we come 1st we will go somewhere to play other Otago schools and win. The whole team is very excited and can't wait. I am going to a ripper rugby tournament at Carrisbrok. It will be sooooo fun. We were playing in the semi final with Arrowtown but we lost. Arrowtown and Millers Flat were playing in the final but Arrowtown won so they got to go to Auckland.

__//** TOUCH: **//__ Touch is just starting up and I can't wait. I love playing touch because I like to run around a lot. I also get to play with me friends. We have the same teams aswhat we had at the start of the year because it is really a carry on from the start of the year. My friend Amy W is playing touch this term and she has never played before. She will love it.
