On
the second day, during the Newquay Sevens, they used the 02 inflatable tag rugby
pitch to practice their line-out throwing, passing and aim their kicking at giant
02 inflatable England players. During the afternoon, Mike attended a girls
rugby coaching session at the Sevens venue, helping coach girls from all over
the Duchy - including three from the Pirates girls - who are stepping up to the
U18s this coming season. After a busy two days in Newquay, Mike was on
his travels again, this time to Helston RFC where he took the Pirates girls rugby
team to join in the host club's fun day. It was a great opportunity for
the girls to work on basic skills, plus fitness and running, which will be helpful
to them all. As it was a mixed fun day Mike played along with the girls team and
got others involved to make sure everyone had a game and also, importantly, had
fun! |
