Just like Steven Adams!

Last week Coach Marco from Kiwisport came to Ruapotaka to begin teaching us how to play basketball like Steven Adams!  We had loads of fun dribbling the ball with our finger tips and practising our triple threat stance.  What will we learn next?

A touch of fractions: what's a dummy half?

Trevor from Kiwisport has been improving our skills and knowledge of touch over the last four weeks. We were a bit worried when he started talking about a dummy. There were drills to practise planting the ball, stepping over the ball and passing the ball along the attacking line. We learnt that a dummy half is the player who picks up the ball after a rollover. On Thursday we put it all together and showed our thinking and speed when we played some mini games with Room 9.
