WRITING

On a early sunny Saturday morning,Saturday 13th September 2010 it was time.
Today was the day for 2 competitive teams to go head to head in the semi finals.
Mount Wellington Vs Manurewa Marlings.

As the referee blew the whistle for the first half the ball goes flying in the air from one side of the field to the other.”SLAP”the ball lands right into my hands and off I ran straight to the first 2 players I see.”BOOM”goes down the first player than the second,still running fully on the burst.”NEK MINUTE”I get tackled from behind and on the ground I go,seeing all the forwards drive over the ruck and retrieving the ball.

As time slipped by the whistle finally blew for half time.With only a short amount of break time our coach gives us a few tips on defense and attacking.

“BOTH TEAMS BACK ON THE FIELD FOR SECOND HALF”.The ref blew the whistle for second half “BOOM” goes the ball flying in the air once again,hoping that the ball will come to me again,but no it goes straight to the fullback.”SLAP”the ball lands in his hands and of he goes.He fends one,fends two,steps one then gets caught from behind and down he goes on the ground.as time goes by with only 30 seconds left on the clock the halfback gives a short ball to the number 8 then gets tackled,20.The half back gives a long ball to the wing he steps one and hes of 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3 passes the ball to me and I bump the fullback off worrying about the time 2,1”TRY”!!!!!!!! the whole team ran on the field full of excitement.Looking at my coaches face seeing tears rushing down from his face and had a big smile on his face.The final score was 40-33 it was a very close game.We were through to the finals.
