Murray Plains Cluster Swimming Sports
Tuesday 24th February
was a wonderful day for our four schools. Children from grades 2-6 at
Leitchville, Welton, Gunbower and Koondrook swam at the Koondrook Pool.
It was amazing to see the level of effort the girls and boys put into their
swimming. There were many children who shone not
because of their great swimming but
because of their never give up attitude. Well done everyone. The glory of the
day went to Welton Primary School who won the Champion Boy and Girl competition
as well as winning the shield for the
second year in a row. Well done Welton!

themselves proud at the Bendigo Regional Swimming Championships. Ashlee’s team

RUCK CONTEST WHEN THROWING BALL UP
Both players taking the ruck contest should be the same height.
Both players taking the ruck contest shall only run in off two steps.
Ruckman cannot lift up leg into other ruckman
Only four people around the ball throw ups at once (2 ruckmen, 2 rovers)
TACKLING
The tackler can only stop the player with the football by stopping his run only, (if so the tackler wins the free kick).
If the tackler takes the player to the ground the free kick will go against the tackler.
Tackler may only stop a player by tackling the player around the hips. Anything higher or lower is against the tackler.
MARKING
When attempting to mark the ball, players cannot run or jump into other players from behind.
BUMPING
Players cannot, at any stage, run in and bump other players off the football or knock players over from the side or front. A free kick will go to the person who was bumped.
Our thanks to past parent/footy coach Trevor Ryan for helping to keep our football games safe by developing these modified rules.
