Cooking

On Wednesday Keelin and I were asked by Whaea Raina to help her with the years 6s orientation the the tech block. We accepted, so after Hockey training we had Burger King,(and minimal frozen coke coming out of my nose) we got changed and went to the food tech room. We were cooking cheese sticks and 2 other boys were cooking chorizo puffs. Once we were done we took all the hot food out of the trays and put them on wire track. Then after all the people went up to the hall we cleaned up and went outside and messed around until our parents picked us up.

We also met Derek's little brother (who looks so much like him!!!!)

Wednesday Training

This Wednesday Training we had another couch come in her name was Frankie, she did a drill that was meant to help us pass to score goals. We were in 2 teams, it was a good drill and it did help us. At the end of every training we have a game it the team usually consisted of the people wearing red against the people wearing blue. the team wearing blue won about 5 - 0. But all in all it was a good training and afterwards for a healthy snack I had a Burger King Stunner which is a creamy mayo burger, drink, fries and a sundae.

Monday Training

Monday Morning Trainings start at 7:00am and end at 8:15pm. I get up at 6:00am and leave my house at 6:40am ( even though I usually don't make that time line)

This monday we started with our usual warm up which starts with a run and then stretches the stretches we do are High Knees, Sumos, Lunges, Scoops, Side Steps and Grapevine then we run back.

We worked on passing and dribbling today and at the end we played  mini game where this is 4 people on each team, one team is going towards the goal and the other is trying to get the ball between to cone on either side of the court.

For the dribbling it was a simple but helpful drill were you had to weave through cones and then take a shot at goal in this drill I learnt how to undercut from our coach. An under cut is where you open your stick so instead of hitting it in the flat our hitting it on an angle.

For the passing drill we just passed back and forward to each other.

My Goal for Aims Game ( for my team) is to get into the top 4. (and myself) to at least do 3 good undercuts at goal.

The skill I'm working on is my undercut


We have a Wednesday afternoon training and on Friday we have a game, this Friday we are playing BC girls A. We won the last time we played them.

First up we played Te Puke Girls and we won that game 7 - 0

Secondly we played Rotorua Girls and we won that game 1 - 0

Thirdly we played Whakatane Girls and we tied that game 0 - 0 but we won in the end because we had scored more goals in previous games and we had more PC's (penalty corners)

Lastly was the final and we played Otumoetai Girls A and we WON!! the score was 2 - 0.

So once again we won the Winter Tournament for Hockey we all got medals and the trophy to keep for another year.
