Softball Rules

During our Kiwi Sport, we had Softball, we learnt the rules of the game.. So there were two teams, one team was fielding and the other was hitting the 3 softball's with the bat. My group was the fielding team at first, then we swapped over. To remember how to hit the ball, we made up a chant...

"Use door knocking knuckles, put the bat by your ear, eyes on the ball, stomp on the bug, squish the bug, then swat the fly." 

The rules with the bat were:

  • Check your surroundings before swinging the bat.
  • Don't throw the bat.
  • Don't run with the bat.
  • Don't use the bat until the coach tells us too.
  • And definitely do not hit anyone with it!
Our team won in the end with 49 points, and the other team got 31. I felt very excited to hit the ball, that's probably why I missed it twice. But I still got the chance to run around the bases two times, and I was kind of proud of that. I had a lot of fun, and I hope my class had fun as well.

In the morning

In the morning we usually run around the court and do some Yoga exercises with Mrs Parker. But today for fitness we played the balloon game with Mrs Raj. When we were about to go out for fitness, Mrs Raj said “The boys will go first” because if it were a boys and girls game, they would make a fuss about holding hands. So the girls did two laps jogging around the court, while the boys played with the balloon.


While the other students were playing, I had to go to Mrs Parker, so I missed quite a lot. But I’ll tell you what happened when I got there… When I finally arrived there, it was the boys that were playing with the balloon, so I saw my friend and I ran up to her and we jogged around the court together. After, we had finished jogging around the court twice, the other girls and I were watching the boys play. Vainikolo fell down because he was trying to hit the balloon, he slipped over but he was strong so he carried on.

As the boys’ game ended, it was the girls turn and I was so excited because I was there just in time to play the game. We had to get in a circle and hold hands. While we held hands, Mrs Raj threw the balloon in the air, we kept an eye on the balloon so we could hit the balloon, while we were still holding hands. We could use our heads and legs too, but using our hands was easier.

Meanwhile the boys were running two laps around the court. The girls were screaming saying “Hit the balloon!” and “Go that way!” it was just chaos but the game was awesome and so much fun! But we were hitting the balloon towards the field, the blue balloon landed on the grass and it went POP! we all sadly said “Aww!” then the game was over, so we headed back to class.
