Kiwisport - Touch
For touch we recapped two main skills in touch rugby which was two man and three man settle.
The first skill we practised was three man settle. If practising a three man settle first you run up, get touched and then plant the ball on the ground for the dummy half to pick up and then pass to the next person.
The second skill we practised was two man settle. If practising a two man settle first you run up, get touched and then plant the ball for the dummy half to pick up and pass it to the same person who got touch. We kept on practising these skills to get used to it.
After that we played a game of touch. We got split up into three teams. Two teams will play and then other team would be watching them playing. There were people that didn't know how to play but it's fine, they are still learning how to play.
I enjoyed this session today at touch rugby.

Touch Rugby - Kiwisport
This week we practised some of the basic skills of touch rugby which was two man and three man settle.
To start off we did a two man settle. How to do a two man settle is: First plant the ball onto the groud, next step to the side then step back, Lastly the dummy half picks the ball up and passes it back to you. After a two man settle we did a three man settle.
How to do a three man settle is: Plant the ball onto the ground, the second players goes dummy half and passes the ball to player behind him. A two man settle and three man settle is used to drive down the field. It makes the defense tired and makes the defense offside.
After that we played walking touch. We play walking touch, so the people that don't know how to play touch rugby could get a basic understanding of the game.
I had fun practising three man and two man settles, I just want to start playing games of touch rugby already.
