Turbo Touch

Today our class learnt a new sport called Turbo Touch.

Rules for Turbo Touch are:

1.      You need two passes to score a try.

2.      When a person gets touched we have to go back 2 meters.

3.      We have to give the person 2 second to run then we can touch them.

4.      We have 4 touches until we handed over.

5.      P.T.T . stands for Pass, Touch and Tap  

Today we went to the hall at 9am to learn about Turbo Touch.  We were not so excited about today’s lesson but when we got to the hall and heard what we were keen to learn.  |Our instructor was Jack and we learnt that Turbo Touch was invented in New Zealand by Tapine Wilson and George Jahnke.  The two touch players wanted to create a sport that could be played all year around.  We learnt what the rules are and we played some activities to warm up.  

Turbo Touch combines elements of:

Touch

Netball

Basketball

Ultimate Frisbee

Please

Please don’t squeeze me tight

Look into my eyes you are getting dizzy.  

I am tapping the ball and passing it on

We are suppose to jump over the try line as fast as we can.

We had a race with Room 18 - tapping and passing the ball around the circle.  Room 28 won.
