Hockey Coaching

We have been lucky enough to have a coach called Fiona come over from Nelson recently to teach us some basic hockey skills. She showed us how to dribble and trap the ball carefully and then we played "Creep up Jack" using hockey sticks and balls. After that we played another cool game where we each got given a number. When your number was called out, you had to run into the middle and try to score a goal between some cones against your partner. We really enjoyed this game, (it was exhausting though) and it got a bit dangerous with hockey sticks flying everywhere at one stage!

Lots of pupils have said they going to choose hockey as their sport for Winter Tournament next term now that they know how much fun it can be.
