AFL

AFL stands for Australian Football League, we started doing this last Thursday. It was great fun and our instructors gave us some tips on playing well. Some of the tips I remember are:

• Laces away from laces
• Point your toe to where you want the ball to go
• Ring finger on the seams
• Crosses up and down

Some new things I learned about AFL are:

1. There are nine players on the field at one time
2. The game will go on for 40 minutes, they will either play for two 20 minute halves or four 10 minute quarters 
3. An opposing player is not allowed to touch a player unless the player is in possession of the ball

After giving us some tips and skills on how to hold and kick the ball we played a game, that involved kicking the balls to the teachers and instructors. I didn't get any points sadly, but my kicking skill did improve.
