I started Rugby this week. We had our first practice yesterday. I'm sitting in bed tonight instead of going out with my friends because I had practice yesterday and it kicked my butt. And everybody said it was an "easy" practice. What have I gotten myself into.
It has been decided that I am going to be a prop which means I literally "prop" up the Hooker. Which means I will probably end up looking like this guy.
I did have a lot of fun at practice. This is a totally new sport to me so I am starting at the very bottom level. We learned how to toss the ball yesterday and run a line. We learned about how to be tackled, what to do when there's a ruck, what "balls out" means (it means the balls out of the ruck) and several other things.
I also realized that I have a long way to go to get my body in Rugby shape. This is certainly going to be great stress relief for the school year.
