Sports Tournaments

At Billingborough, we love giving our children every opportunity to try a variety of new sports, as well as the ones they already know and love. Inspired by the rising profile of disability sport and para-athletes, we've also played boccia, seated volleyball and goalball. This has raised everyone's awareness of SEN/disability sports while providing lots of fun, with our 'less sporty' children also able to succeed.

We're part of the 'Outreach' programme run by Carre's Grammar School, meaning we take part in numerous competitions in an ever-increasing range of sports and activities, including several for our KS1 children. Our pupils are always delighted to be asked to represent the school and it really does raise the profile of sport/exercise as a key ingredient of an active,  healthy lifestyle. Take a good look at some of the things we've been doing...

Some of our Y3 children got our sporting year off to a fantastic start with a fun-filled Kabaddi session, with Pointon, Morton and Horbling schools joining us.

A very fitting finale to the end of a year where organised sports activities have really been hit by the pandemic. Our children had a wonderful day that we hope they will always remember - fitness circuit, tennis, football, cricket, trampolining, dance, gymnastics, yoga, pop lacrosse, rugby, baseball and tr-golf. What a brilliant day and what an amazing group of children who - as always - were a real credit to our school. Good luck in your sporting careers in secondary school and beyond... 

Our long-awaited return to inter-schools sporting competition was a highly successful one. Six of our Year 6 children took to the field at Sleaford Cricket Club in style, winning all 3 games against Morton, Pointon and Horbling schools. Great bowling, batting, fielding and sportsmanship led to this 100% record - well done Fran, Oscar, Jack, Paige, Dom and Luca 

This group of 8 children had a real blast at this event. Plenty of throwing, bowling, batting practice in a carousel of activity stations. It was their first taste of inter-schools sports and, for most of them, their first taste of cricket. They enjoyed it so much they keep asking when they can go again!

A special mention also goes to Caedeigh from Year 5, one of our playground leaders who went along to help tun the event.

Our first ever experience of basketball coaching, with lots of skills work in Carre's School sports hall followed by several highly-exciting friendly matches.

Taylor, Reid, Chloe, Saul, Ashton, Rubie, Liam and Erin all really enjoyed the opportunity to try out another new sport 

The most peaceful sporting event of the year!!

Corey, Ethan and Brandon slipped on their blindfolds and were uncharacteristically silent as they listened for the bellball to come rattling their way. Then they somehow blocked it from entering our goal before attempting to roll it into the opponents' goal. Lots of lying and slithering around on the floor, with great concentration and tension! The boys worked extremely well as a team and we won most of our games.

After the round-robin games, all the children were mixed into different teams, so they had chance to socialise and play with new friends from Horbling, Helpringham and Morton schools. During the games that followed, the non-playing teams were in charge, with the children taking on the responsible roles of referee, scorer and timekeeper.

A thrilling afternoon of sprint relays and field events! The mighty Swans showed amazing speed and slick handovers of the relay baton, ensuring we won several heats of the track races. Then there was all the vertical and distance jumping, javelin throwing, speed bouncing and throwing a basketball.

The team finished in 4th place (out of 20) which is easily our best-ever position! The children once again showed tremendous enthusiasm by giving absolutely 100% all the time and impressive teamwork by cheering each other on.

Well done Jacob, CJ, Jordane, Summer, Phoebe, Tabby, Alfie, Merryn, Kowan, Mack, Zuzia and Dom - plus of course the parents who kindly helped us out with transport 

C-H-A-M-P-I-O-N-S!! 

For the 2nd year running, Billingborough's rowers beat all the competition in the indoor rowing challenge. Riley, Darcy, Alfie and Jasmine pulled and pushed their way to success with tremendous determination and power in the singles event and teamwork in the relay.

On Friday 24th January, four children went to the Change4Life festival at Nocton. We took part in lots of different sports games to keep us fit and healthy.

The first game was the Ninja Trail and in the game we had a very bumpy tunnel, we also had a step ladder that was on the floor so we had to put our feet in the gaps. We had a mat and had to do any kind of roll and then we had to jump over two obstacles. Lastly we had to go on a spacehopper and go back to the beginning.

In Kabaddi we had to steal the other player's tail that was a bib.

In the Circuits games, first we had the wheelbarrow game and one person was on their hands and then the other person was holding their legs. Next we did sit-ups with a ball. After the sit-ups we did the Under and Over game, so one person passed the ball over and the other person passed the ball under their legs. We did Star Jumps while the other person was jogging around the mat. Then we did Squats so 2 people have to fold their arms together and then they have to do a squat and hold it, then they have to get back up again. In the Ball Pass we went back-to-back and then we had to turn around and give the other person the ball.

In the Tag game, we were trying to tag your partner's knee, also we were running around a cone.

In Tae Kwon-Do we were punching and kicking a soft pillow or a cushion.

In Judo we were holding our partner down on the soft, green mat and they had to try and escape. Then we were jumping over a big black bag and running back and forth on the mat.

We had a lot of fun and learnt lots of new things.

A fun-filled afternoon using a beam, bars, springboard, vault, trampette and full-size trampoline! 

Caedeigh and Eden rolled, stretched, jumped, swung, bridged and bounced around Sleaford Elite Gym Club under the expert eye of the club coaches.

Our new sporting decade kicked off with our Y5-6 team making our first-ever appearance at this event, having qualified before Christmas. We got off to a very slow start against the eventual winners, Caythorpe, before earning a 0-0 draw against the strong Digby team with a really energetic team performance. Next up were Holy Trinity and the teamwork went up another notch: solid defence, solid tackling in midfield and exciting dribbling in attack. Just before half-time, Jacob fed the ball to Dom inside the area and he coolly volleyed it into the far corner. Despite lots of good attacking play by the Swans, we weren't able to add another goal; however, Dom's goal proved to be the winner to send us off happily to the lunch break.

In the afternoon, our first opponents were the impressive team from St Gilbert's (Pointon). Despite our best efforts, we were unable to keep them at bay and ended up losing 2-0. Onto our final game against Kirkby on Bain: a very quiet first half from the Swans but luckily the game was still goalless at half-time. We had plenty of promising opportunities in the 2nd half but were unable to score, but twice Kirkby caught us out on the counter-attack, leading to the referee correctly awarding two penalties. Dom had a superb free-kick which was well saved by the keeper and Kirkby sealed a 3-0 win with the final kick of the match.

Overall, we won 1 game, drew 1 and lost 3 but gave 100% effort and demonstrated excellent respect and sportsmanship 

A fantastic effort from all our 11 children who took part in these races in the grounds of PGL Caythorpe. The rain held off and there was plenty of sunshine. There was even more mud, however, and soon they were running and slithering up and down hills, through the woods and around the lake. It was quite a tough course in those conditions but most of the children said they enjoyed the challenge and all of them should be really proud of their achievement in completing the course.

Special mentions go to Raef from Y3 (8th place in the Year 3/4 Boys) Dominic (7th place in the Year 5/6 Boys) and Jasmine (25th place in the Year 5/6 Girls).  Who's going back for another go next year? 

With our own pitch sadly unplayable due to the heavy rain, we made the short trip to Helpringham, full of hope and determination. However, we got off to a slow start and lost 2-1 to the host team, with Dom getting our goal.

We then kept a clean sheet against Kirkby-la-Thorpe and Mack got the only goal after great play by CJ. Next up were Pointon but unfortunately we let in 2 soft,early goals, however we soon started playing some great attacking football and Mack pulled a goal back. Despite being much the better team, we were unable to grab an equaliser and it finished as a 1-2 defeat.

Onto our final game against Morton. Our tactics managed to keep their star player very quiet and soon Dom scored a spectacular solo goal after an amazing dribble where he seemed to beat about 10 players and then squeeze the ball into the net from an impossible angle! Soon afterwards, CJ picked up a loose ball in midfield, ran through and lashed the ball into the roof of the net. Jacob then made it three with a lovely, low, left-foot finish following a corner. 3-0 was the final score, meaning we ended on a high.

These results meant we finished 2nd out of 5 teams (Pointon won all their 4 games) but this was still enough to qualify for the local finals at Sleaford Town FC on Friday 10th January  Come On You Swans!!

On November 1st, our team (Merryn, Tabitha, Jordane, Phoebe, Jade, Jacob and Joe) travelled to Cranwell Primary School to play High-5 netball.

First game: Caythorpe 2 - 1 Billingborough

Billingborough (having not practised much) started a bit rusty but soon Merryn had scored! Not long after, Caythorpe came back with another 2! Unfortunately, we didn't score again, meaning we had lost.

Second game: Cranwell 5 - 0 Billingborough

We were gradually starting to work better as a team and getting more used to snatching the ball off our opponents. Unfortunately, we were pretty much thrashed - we tried our best and that's all that matters!

Third game: St Botolph's 0 - 1 Billingborough

By this game, we were geared up and ready. We started off well and soon Jacob had scored! Thankfully our defence line was good and didn't let anyone go past. The whistle went and we finally had the feeling of winning!

Fourth game: St Gilbert's 2 - 1 Billingborough

We were all a bit weary by this game but still fighting. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough as Pointon scored at least 2 but (wait for it) Jordane had scored for us. We didn't win but we still tried our best 

During all these games, 3 people cheered us on and helped improve our skills. Many thanks to Phoebe's mum, my mum and Mr James.

Report by Merryn Baldock

On Friday 4th October, Jordane, Erin, Zuzia, Chloe, Merryn, Francesca, Evey, Paige and myself represented our school at the Year 5/6 Girls' Football Tournament, playing in the Women's Championship league. 

We first played against Winthorpe Primary School. Everyone played really well and at the end we drew 0-0. Then came Morton Primary School, unfortunately we lost 1-0 but a good effort from all. Our third game was against Cranwell, what a fantastic game with a super goal from Francesca and we won 1-0. Well done all! Our fourth game was against Osbournby which we won where Jordane scored a goal. Great effort from everyone.

Our last game was against William Alvey Primary School. In the end we came out with a draw. Unfortunately we didn't get through to the finals. Winthorpe won our league. 

Everyone tried their hardest and worked as a team.

Report by Tabbie Ray

When we got there, we played a practice round until the last school arrived. Then we played the proper thing. We played against the other 4 schools. We won 2 games and drew 2 games. We got better as the games went on and hit the beach ball over the net. It was the first time we played the game and we really loved it.

A victorious start to another packed sporting year!

Alfie, Ashton, Dom, Fran, Jackson, Jacob and Layla made the short trip to Osbournby for the Year 5/6 handball tournament. Playing in the lovely September sunshine, their superb teamwork and catching/throwing skills paid off, as 'The Swans' won all 3  matches comfortably against children from Helpringham and the host school.

Another action-packed day for all our KS2 children, to round off another excellent sporting year which saw us proudly achieve the Gold Mark for the second year in a row. All the children competed for their house teams. The morning saw plenty of exciting, competitive action in hockey and handball, where it was great to see children working on their tactics and positioning as the games during and between matches.

In the afternoon, we played tag rugby and 2 tri-golf activities. The rules of rugby (staying behind the ball and only being allowed to pass backwards) proved something of a challenge but again teams were quick to work out effective ways to play; some truly excellent tries were scored and there was some spirited defending to grab those tags before the attacking player could touch the ball down. A special mention goes to Kowan (Y5) who somehow managed to slip over, hold onto the ball, turn to run backwards, then forwards and eventually wriggle past the opposing team and over the line to score the 'try of the day!'

It wasn't just about playing, though; all teams were encouraged to show 'Respect' to earn valuable bonus points in every single match they played. Also a number of children took on important leadership roles with time-keeping, scoring and photography (all the images above were taken by our children).

Well done to all the children for their great effort, energy and sporting behaviour. And the winning house? ANDREW HOUSE (the mighty blues!!)

What a memorable day! 12 of our Y3 children went to Sleaford to take part in 13 (yes, 13!!) different sporting activities and had an amazing time. After a team photo with Max (the official mascot of Active Lincolnshire), we led the opening parade lap and soon the games began - boxing, triathlon, rowing, tag rugby, gymnastics, judo, tri-golf, hobby-horse racing, cricket, tennis, football, volleyball and boccia. Hours of fun and inspiration, great sportsmanship and excellent all-round behaviour.

It was the final sporting event of this year and Mr James was presented with our School Games Gold Mark certificate during the closing ceremony. We also received an extra certificate for the school's 'Outstanding Dedication to School Sport' as we have entered so many events this year and never withdrawn from any. This is due to the great enthusiasm and commitment from all our children and families, making us one of the leading primary schools in the area for participation in school sports. Thank you and well done everyone!

6 of our muggles made the short trip on the Hogwarts Express to Osbournby, to take part in the first-ever schools' quidditch tournament. When we arrived, the sorting hat decided that we were playing for Ravenclaw.

We had no idea what to expect but it turned out to be a mixture of handball, dodgenball and tag rugby (kind of). After getting used to the complex rules and scoring system, we were soon seeking the snitch, throwing the bludger and generally having a magical time. We played several games against other local schools, winning more than we lost.

Well done to Layla, Paige, Jack, Isobel, Corey and Wilf: 6 huge Harry Potter fans who will surely never forget their first taste of playing a game they had previously only been able to enjoy in books and films!

Four of our Year 5 children spent an enjoyable afternoon hunting for clues in the green pastures around Winthorpe Community Centre, Newark.

Callum, Joe, Summer and Rosie-Mai (our 2 teams) looked literally high and low to find all the clues in the photographs they were given, then mark the locations on an aerial map. So communication skills, problem-solving, map-reading and other geographical skills were called for, whilst the children got plenty of fresh air and exercise. They all tackled the task with great enthusiasm and effort, determined to find every single clue and, when the answers and timings were checked, we found that Rosie-Mai and Summer finished in the 3rd fastest time overall. Well done to all of you!

What an outstanding performance! Our 4 junior rowers (including 2 complete novices) suggested that Team GB's Olympic medal haul may continue into the future, when they went to the fitness suite at Carre's to compete in individual time trials and a team relay event. Luca really set the ball rolling with a fine row which was in the top 4, then Francesca showed enormous determination and great technique in a sport she'd never done before - and finished in 5th place! Alfie was next in the hot-seat and strained every sinew before handing over to Chloe. She had done very well last year and this time she absolutely smashed it! Her individual performance of 397 metres in 2 minutes was the best distance achieved by any of the 96 children (boys and girls) who took part!

On to the team relay: more energetic pulling, quick changeovers and sheer determination drove our team to complete the 4 x 500-metre relay in exactly 12 minutes, beating the previous leaders (Leasingham) by a clear 10 seconds. The gym staff were all really impressed by our children's skill, strength and team spirit. The photos above include the overall scoreboard, with our scores at the bottom; later it was confirmed that we were easily the highest-scoring team overall. Congratulations to all of you!

Our trip to kurling at Nocton was phenomenal. Logan, Evey, Ben and myself went with Mr James. It was a loud journey there in the car, as we were all excited!

There was lots of other schools there too. There was a stick that looked like a brush to push the stone, or you could just use your hands. But we did not play on ice, we played on a slippery floor but it still worked and it was still really fun.

Our ratings - we all gave it a 10 out of 10 because we had never done it before but it was really fun.

Definitely recommended :-)

report by Caedeigh

Kowan, Ashton and Jack enjoyed the short trip to Osbournby to take part in the quietest event in our sporting calendar.  Onlooking teachers revelled in the silence as the blindfolded players listened eagerly for the bell-ball, trying to stop it from entering their goal. Then it was their turn to roll it (still blindfolded) towards where they thought the other team's goal was - often with comical results for those watching, particularly if they ended up rolling the ball into their own goal!

This game was created for blind and visually-impaired players and is an established feature of the Paralympic Games. Our boys played really well and finished in 2nd place

Netball Tournament 30.11.18

Wow wow wow!! What an afternoon we had at our first netball tournament in Heckington. We started off playing against Billinghay, which ended in a draw. Fantastic defending from Woody and I. Onto our next game which saw us playing our local friends, Brown's Horbling School, which we won 2-0. Our star of the game was Merryn, who scored both goals. Then we played Pointon, which we lost but it was a close game. Superb playing from all, especially Dominic and jacob, it must run in the family!! Onto our final game we came up against Helpringham which were a strong side but only beat us 4-2. Anna and Phoebe played well in this match.

All in all, we had a great time and came 3rd in our first netball tournament - roll on next year!

Report by Tabbie Ray (Year 5)

It was the day of the tag rugby tournament and everyone was determined to be the ones in the lead with a certificate; a certificate clasped in their hot, sweaty palms.

The scores were very close and astonishing but there could only be one winner and we were all hoping to come back with superb smiles on our face, hoping we won. It was truly an amazing but nerve-racking experience.

We marched out there proudly even though we didn't win every time. Slightly disappointed but it didn't change it from being spectacular!

Report by Summer Starbuck

We didn't win any but we didn't lose any either. As we all waited to get there, we were thinking about it. Our transport approached the car park.....we all jumped out of the cars and got warmed up.

Before we knew it, we were playing games. First game was 0-0 against Horbling, we were determined not to let any in but unfortunately we didn't score.

The second game against Caythorpe was also 0-0. We were very close and Yvette hit the post, I thought it had gone in but it hadn't! Nearly a winner but not quite.

Third game was 0-0. We tried really hard but luckily Harriet saved a shot and ended up with her leg in the air and her chest on the ground. It was an awesome save.

Our fourth game was 0-0 and we were all quite tired by now but tried to hang on. We all tried our very best against Church Lane and it was epic. 

Harriet was a fantastic goalie for Billingborough and I think we make an excellent team despite injuries. I think it was wonderful. Also despite Sienna not really being into football, she did a brilliant job.

Report by Merryn Baldock

The squad (Oliver, Woody, Charlie, Henry, Jacob, Joe, Dominic, CJ and myself) all went to Rauceby School to participate in the qualifier event of football. So it was finally time for our first game and we came up against Leasingham. It was a tough game and they only just won 1-0 with an amazing strike from their number 10.

Our penultimate game was against Nocton Primary School and again we lost by a narrow 1-0. In our last game we had to do well and it was against the host team. We went 1-0 up with a good shot from Oliver then Woody came out of his shell with an absolute stunner of a shot. They then pulled one back but Woody made it 3 and we won the last game 3-1.

We came third but I think we all enjoyed ourselves. We had fun on the way home, then the day came to an end and it was all over.

On Friday 22nd June a group of children from Year 3 took part in the tenth Mini Olympics at Eslaforde Park in Sleaford. There were teams of other children from schools in the Sleaford area and we all took part in a number of sports and activities. All the teams were given a different country to represent from the World Cup. We got Denmark and we had to parade with the Danish flag with all the other teams carrying the flags of the other countries at the World Cup.

After that we all got to play different sports and activities, these included judo, football, cheerleading, gymnastics, tennis and kabaddi and it was great fun. I really enjoyed the judo and the tennis and the next day I showed some of the judo moves to my dad who got a bit annoyed about being thrown around the lounge by me.

The weather was sunny all day and although it was quite hot, we all drank plenty of water and sat in the shade of our Billingborough School gazebo when we were not taking part in any of the activities. All the other children from the other schools were really friendly and kind and the Billingborough team all did really well in all of the events. We all had a great time.

Report by Dominic Crawford

Our Time at the Mini Olympics

First we had a parade round the colossal sports field which was quite fun and an enjoyable moment for us. Surprisingly straight after that we got straight onto the sport activities which I was particularly excited for, but a bit nervous. When we passed cheerleading, it started getting interesting because everybody was getting more confident and eager to earn our school some points. 

As the triathlon started I was confused because normally it would be swimming-biking-running, however it was just different because it ended up being rowing but I didn't complain because it was a fun experience for everyone. But the fun didn't stop cos we had some exciting events left to do, including freestyle football which was extremely good and in fact I did not expect it to be that amazing. 

When it was getting closer to having lunch under the bright umbrella we all were still not tired and unexpectedly we were not giving up yet. Then we had lunch because mostly everyone was starving.

Then again we got right back into the enjoyable events which was quite boring because it was my most hated of them all - cricket. Then it got way better because it was tae kwon-do which was similar to the judo we did earlier. We found out some facts that were unbelievable about tae kwon-do and that was the time we got really tired. 

Afterwards I wasn't really feeling football or karate so we tried but lost the boys' and girls' football. Then when we had finished all our sports we saw Ash Randall the freestyler doing some fantastic awesome football skills and then the medals were given out, mostly to Cranwell. Overall a super day!!!

On Friday the 4th of May Luca, Rubie, Jordane and Joe went to Heckington School to play tennis. We played really well and had a great time. We all played singles matches against 3 other schools and came in 2nd place. This means we have made it to the finals

KS1 Kabaddi Taster Activity

On Friday 27th April myself, Darcy, Milla, Caspar, Ethan and Taylor went to Helpringham Primary School to have a try at kabaddi. As it was raining heavily we had to play kabaddi indoors even though kabaddi is and outdoor activity. We played 5 matches and we won 3 and lost 2. It was a very fun sport to play and it was a bit like tag as it involved lots of running. Our team played very well and all of us had a wonderful time playing kabaddi.

On Friday 9th March, 10 people from Years 5 and 6 went out to play hockey at William Alvey School. We we were split into 2 teams: team 1 - Finley, Holly-Marie, Herbie, Harriet and Mia. Team 2 - Woody, Oliver, Dominic, Scarlett and Mollie.

Both teams did well, Billingborough's team 1 came second and team 2 came 3rd. We lost 1, drew 1 and won 2. Billingborough's team 2 lost 2 games and won 3. Our first game was against each other. Billingborough team 1 had their 1st win over their rivals Billingborough team 2 with a score of 1-0. We all played really well and scored some brilliant goals and did some great tackling to stop the other teams. William Alvey team 1 were the winners in the end.

Alexander, Brandon and Raef made the short journey to Helpringham School.

Jill, a highly-experienced coach (www.tkdclubs.com) showed them a variety of moves in their first-ever experience of this popular martial arts sport. 

On Friday 11th January, Holly-Rose, Aminah, Dominic C, Thomas K and Lily went to a goalball tournament at Horbling Primary School. You play it with a blindfold on and have to be really quiet so you can hear the ball with the bell inside it. If we won this one, we went through to the finals and might get a medal. Yaaaaaay!

We had so much fun. We got to meet an old friend called Erin and in the finals we are going up against them and another school. The finals are on 2nd February in Lincoln. Today we won 4 matches, drew 1 and lost 1.

Report by Holly-Rose Stewart

Our team of 6 boys and 6 girls from Years 3 and 4 headed off to the gym at Carre's Grammar to compete against 13 other 'small' schools from the area.

We got off to a winning start in the first relay races with some fantastic sprinting and baton handovers. Soon the 'field' events also began, with each child doing 2 jumps or throws (standing long jump or triple jump, vertical jump, chest push or soft javelin). The action was almost non-stop, with the children eager to know what their next event was. There was so much going on that it was difficult to photograph it all.

The levels of excitement, energy and enthusiasm were even greater than the level of noise reverberating around the gym (and that's saying something!) Once again, the sportsmanship and behaviour of all our children was absolutely superb and a really fantastic time was had by everyone. Well done to Alice, Jade, McKenzie, Wilf, Dominic, Zuzia, Isaac, CJ, Merryn, Tabitha, Jordane and Jacob for representing us so well.

What a fantastic day! In the morning, we had 3 Reception Class children taking part in the first ever inter-school sport event for that age group. Running, throwing beanbags, animal walks and a balloon game provided plenty of fun while helping develop some key physical skills. Darcey, Cameron and Willow really shone with their energy and enthusiasm.

In the afternoon, 10 of our KS1 children took part in a variety of activities involving running, throwing, balancing, hand-eye coordination and target practice, all trying hard to beat their own individual score. Even the more reluctant children - also having their first taste of representing the school at sport - were soon engrossed in the fun and cheering each other on.

All of our children were a real credit to the school and many thanks also to the parents who kindly helped out by driving all the way to Nocton. But a final salute to Tom and Melissa from Year 6, who volunteered to go along as Young Leaders and did a superb job explaining and organising their activity station as the children from several schools came to play. 

And we're off! The sporting year began with our own hall full of frantic action, colour and vocal support as we again hosted a KS1 dodgeball festival. Helpringham, Osbournby, Kirkby-la-Thorpe and Heckington schools joined us for an afternoon of tremendous fun, keen competition and great sportsmanship; the photos barely do it justice! 12 of our own children (2 teams) took part, proudly and honourably representing the school for the first time. They have all acquired a real passion for the game and we have some real 'hotshots' in our ranks 

It was especially pleasing that our brand new school sports kit arrived just in time, making the team look particularly smart.

Special thanks also to Bethan and Harriet, our sports leaders for the day, who did an outstanding job assisting the children and coach. Here is Harriet's report:

The experience of being a sports team leader for the dodgeball tournament was great fun. We had 4 visiting teams from other primary schools. They each played each other, just for fun. The children were only Year 1 and 2, they really enjoyed themselves. Doing the various sports is great fun and if you are not very good at the sport you have been chosen for it doesn't matter as long as you enjoy yourselves. It's a great opportunity so have a go!
