Today we started our first Kiwi Sport session of the year. This term the sport we are doing is cricket. Our coach's name is Brian, he is from Howick Pakuranga Cricket Club. We split into two teams. My team started with Bowling.
Bowling:
In this section we learnt how to bowl/throw. We started off with getting into 3 groups of 4-5. There were a Tennis Ball, Wicket and 4 cones for each group. We had to use the tennis ball to throw at the 4 cones. To do that we had to aim by using the opposite hand your throwing with. Once we hit one of the 4 cones we need to put it on one of the wicket stands. Whichever team does all 4 cones win. My team won for this section. Our next challenge was to hit the wicket. If we hit the wicket we need to pull a pole out. If you have no more poles you win.
Batting:
After the bowling session we moved on to Batting. For batting there were 4 people batting and the rest fielders. There were a line of blue cones for where the fielders can stand. The fielders job is to get the ball that the batter bats and run as fast as they can to put it back on the stand. While the fielders are doing that the batters run back and forth as fast as they can. They try to get as much runs as possible.
