Chasing Great - Day 2

Over the past 17 years New Zealand experienced a number of sporting highlights, perhaps none larger than the back-to-back Rugby World Cup victories in 2011 and 2015. In both competitions a our national rugby team the All Blacks, was captained by a man named "Richie McCaw." He is the all time best rugby player. A movie called "Chasing Great" recently created was about his incredible career.

For this activity we had to watch the trailer of Chasing Great and learn more about him online that we never knew. After watching and learning we had to list them. We also had to write what else we would like to find out.

Here are my facts,

1. He wants to take his team to places people have never been.
2. When he was little he wanted to become a great All Black player.
3. He exercises almost the whole day, like even at night!

This trailer seems so interesting and makes me want to watch the movie. Another thing I would like to learn more about Richie McCaw was when did he start being in the All Blacks team and when he started loving sports.
