Mini Rugby Skills, Testwood Sports College
April 30th 2009
Testwood Sports College hosted the New Forest Primary School Sport Mini Rugby Festival again this year.
The festival runs alongside the National Competition Framework for this age group (school years 3 and 4) in which the children should take part in an approach that offers activities using a variety of skills, which impact upon the FUNdamental movement and FUNdamental Rugby Skills.
The ultimate aim was to improve and measure young people’s movement competencies, confidence and understanding of basic skills in order to recognise talent and future potential.
The festival was held indoors, due to the bad weather. Activities ranged from balancing to co-ordination skills. Most of the activities involved a rugby ball, in order to make the skill specific to the sport.
It was Blackfield who again finished top of the skill stage with Ringwood finishing second and Marchwood in third.
The event was once again supported by Testwood Sports College and its Rugby Sports Leaders from Year 10.
