Touch Game

As I got into the hall I suddenly felt butterflies in my stomach I was wishing they would go away. I could see everyone’s faces were getting more and more anxious. When Miss Vaafusuaga was calling out the roll I had struggle trying to say yes. I was nervous that we were going to a year 7 & 8 mixed touch tournament on Dunkirk Road. When she finished the roll it felt like the tournament was just minutes away.

First ,  everyone got into lines to get ready to walk to the tournament. As we got closer and closer to the fields . I felt like my heart was going to burst out I was so scared that we might lose our first game. I could smell sweet flowers coming from the side of me as we were walking towards the fields so that cheered me up a little bit.

Then we finally got to the fields and our coach Tyson told our team to do warm-ups. I could already smell body odour going through my nose it was horrifying. First we did settle which is when the wing, link and middle work together to try get closer to the try line. Then it was game time our first game was against tamaki primary cowboys. Boom before you know it we already had scored a try.

Altogether , we had six games each game was fifteen minutes and we didn’t have halfs. Our second game was against tamaki primary tigers when we got onto the field I was feeling really because there team looked really hard and fast. But I was also confident about our team to because we had just won our first game against there other team.

After that , I was even more excited to play the next team because we had just won our last two games. I was killing inside because butterflies were getting to me it felt like I had a huge  knot in my stomach. But I faced it then bang! our fifth game was already on we played against glen taylor this was on decision game because if we won this we were automatically in the finals that game went so fast.

BANG! we won everyone in the team was so excited that we were going to the finals. I wanted to burst out a fantastic smile but I kept it in because we still had one more game to be crowned first place.

Suddenly , we see glen taylor walking onto the field so we all had a great feeling that we were playing them in the final. But it was anyone’s game I was so terrified I asked to sub off first and just watch for a little bit. We were halfway through the final and still no one and scored in was intense then all I see was Asena score on the right wing everyone cheered all I could hear was “GO ASENA” .

Then I jumped on the field I was so scared I wanted to run off and scream. But no I couldn’t let the team down then we scored again and again BANG! the timer goes off and we had won the tournament their team looked shattered because they came second place.
