Plympton St. Maurice L1 Dodgeball 07.06.2021

Monday 07th June 2021 – A fantastic afternoon of fun in the sun at Plympton St. Maurice. Today we played Dodgeball with Y5 and Y6 as a fun, competitive session to introduce each group to a game full of tactics and strategy.

To start us off, we went over the basic rules but then gradually introduced some of the more complex rules. At first glance, Dodgeball can seem very straight forward but as our teams found out, there are a lot more rules and tactics when we play the full game. After some practice games, it was into our round-robin tournament. We didn’t formally collate any scores today, but we did have a lot of fun playing against all the different teams. We also introduced a ‘good sportsmanship’ focus by demonstrating Teamwork, Honesty and Respect.

It was great to be outside with some good weather and the afternoon soon flew by. I am already looking forward to next week, where I will be working with both groups again to try a new activity.
