This morning the team travelled to Ngoma Primary school (9 \u2013 11) which had a long playing area however the area wasn\u2019t as wide which caused a bit of a problem but the group adapted very well to deal with the circumstances. The group split up with<\/p>\n

In this session the group were thrown an extremely difficult challenge which they had no knowledge of until they arrived and prepared to start \u2026 This challenge was that a group of the pupils at the school were deaf which of course left the group a bit of a dilemma when it came to leading that part of the session.<\/p>\n

Alex stated that<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was extremely rewarding to help some children who had been handed a rough hand in life compared to him\u201d<\/p>\n

Which is something the rest of the team all agree on \u2013 Another thing the group felt was that after the use of demonstrations the deaf children actually managed to pick the drill up easier than the rest of the participating children.<\/p>\n

In the afternoon the group travelled to Kabutare secondary school where they set up a game of cricket and began to play swapping batsmen when a wicket was taken \u2013 they continued this and as pupils of the school arrived on the field of play they let them take up roles in the game such as batsmen and bowler \u2013 one of the early arrivals got given the nickname of the \u2018Butare express\u2019 by the group due to the speed of his bowling. As the field of play got busier the team split up in order to set up and play other games with the same rules to prevent any of the pitches becoming overcrowded.<\/p>\n
