We had fun playing rounders in our PE time. For our game of rounders you need; 3 hoops, 1 ball, 1 tennis racket and an i-pad to take pictures. You need the following players; 6 fielders, 1 batter, 1 back stopper (the person behind the batter), 1 bowler (this person throws the ball). Here are some pictures of the game we played today.

This is one of our batters (Louis) waiting for the bowler (Miss Lewis) to throw the ball.

The fielders are concentrating hard waiting to catch the ball after the batter hits the ball.

The batter (Louise) is just about to hit the ball!

The batter (David) has just hit the ball and the fielders are trying to catch the ball. Look at Liam and Maggie run!

This picture shows a good example of the rules of the game. The racquet has gone outside the red hoop, which automatically means that batter is out!

This picture shows an action shot of the batter (Jakub) hitting the ball. Primary 3 all agree “It was a good hit. Jakub was concentrating on the ball to make sure he hit it.”
