After School Octopush



This term Mr Geddes and Ms Spence have been coaching after school octopush for the primary 7 students who want to give it a try.
First of all you have to get comfortable with a snorkel and mask and learn how to duck dive.
Then you have to learn how to use the puck and bat on the bottom of the pool.

Where is the puck?

Ready with my bat.


Should it be called underwater rugby?
Chasing the puck.

Action at the goal.
The game in full swing.
Duck diving.
Everyone gets a turn to play a game in a team.

Some of the older KGS octopush players come to help.
Abbie and Thorfinn remember starting out in P7 with Mr Geddes.
