Fun and Cheers in GEO Sports Night!

Last Wednesday, August 4, we had a team competition, Sports.

We played games at the gym. Before we started the game, we had time to listen to each team’s catch phrase. The first team was Jamaica. They harmonized the word “Jamaica”. The second team was Ireland and the third team was New Zealand. New Zealand team’s catch phrase was acting like Maori, and they shouted about winning the game. And the last team was my team Australia. We parodied a Korean baseball team’s catch phrase. We sang a song and danced.

Team Ireland with their Team Cheer!

Team New Zealand shouting that they will win the game!

My Team Australia portraying our parody ^_^

 After performing catch phrases, we had a game: tying sneaker strings to become the longest. We stood in straight lines, and when the whistle blew, we started to untie strings, and after that we retied them in a straight line. And this game New Zealand won. Next, we tied the strings to our shoes. That game Ireland won. All of us had fun and we laughed a lot.

Who'd have imagine that placing back our shoe laces would be difficult?

Tada!!!  All done!

 The second game was “Catch the Tail”. In the first match, Australia lost and Ireland lost. And in the final match, team New Zealand and team Jamaica met and fought. After playing a seesaw game, eventually New Zealand won. But there was another match left. Team Australia and team Ireland met and played “Catch the Tail” for third place.

Catch my tail, if you can!

 The third game was basketball shoot-out. It was 2 rounds, and we ran to the opposite side of the gym. Then we picked up a basketball, soccer ball, volleyball and a rugby ball and came back to the start line to shoot the balls that we picked up. In the first round, Ireland won and the second round, Jamaica won. My team Australia was 3^rd in the first round and 2^nd in the second one. Our team was so sad because we couldn’t be the first in all rounds.

Ireland's strategic meeting?

 The fourth game was to make a goal like soccer but we had a smaller goalpost and we even used a volleyball for kicking. In this game, team New Zealand won, and my team Australia got 4^th place. We thought we could make a goal by just kicking the ball straight and slow, but it was not an easy thing because the goalpost was very small.

Sports Night Champion:  Team New Zealand!

 Then finally there were tied teams so except Australia, my team, they played relay running. Team Jamaica won, and all sports competitions were finished.
