Canada - Ennillwyr Cwpan gyda'i gwobrau / Cup winners with their prizes

Enillodd Canada Cwpan Cyffwrdd Cyflym cyntaf, cynhaliwyd gan Ysgol Glan y Môr. Cyrhaeddodd Canada i’r rownd derfynol gan ennill grŵp caled iawn gyda thimau megis Seland Newydd, Awstralia a De Affrica. Wedyn, enillodd gêm agos iawn yn y rownd gynderfynol yn erbyn Ffrainc gyda sgôr yn ystod amser ychwanegol, cyn curo Ffiji, 2 – 1 yn y gêm derfynol.
Trefnwyd y twrnamaint gan 5×60, yr un cyntaf o’i fath yn Sir Gâr (a Chymru, rwy’n meddwl!) Cystadlwyd 11 tîm, gyda 6 chwaraewr yr un o flwyddyn 7 Glan y Môr. Fe aeth y ddau dîm gyda mwyaf o bwyntiau trwyddo i’r rowndiau cynderfynol.
Roedd y safon chwarae yn uchel iawn, yn enwedig gan fod neb wedi clywed na chwarae Cyffwrdd Cyflym o blaen!
Cafodd Cyffwrdd Cyflym ei greu yn Seland Newydd yn 2009 gan Touch New Zealand er mwyn chwarae rygbi dan do trwy’r flwyddyn – beth bynnag yw’r tywydd. Mae’r gêm yn boblogaidd iawn gyda disgyblion ysgol ac oedolion yn Seland Newydd, felly gwelwn os mae’r gêm yn dal sylw yng Nghymru hefyd!
Hefyd, mae rhaid i mi ddiolch yr arweinwyr ifanc o flwyddyn 10. Roedd eu help dyfarnu, trefnu a gweithio mas gemau a chanlyniadau yn amhrisiadwy!
Cynhalir twrnameintiau eraill a sesiynau amser cinio ac ar ôl ysgol ym mis Ionawr i’r rhai sydd eisiau parhau chwarae.

Y Timau / The Teams
Canada won the first ever Turbo Touch Cup, held by Glan y Môr School. They reached the final by winning a very tough group containing heavy-weights such as New Zealand, Australia and South Africa. They then defeated France in a closely contested semi-final, with a golden score in extra time, before beating Fiji, 2 – 1 in the final game.
The tournament, organised by 5×60, was the first of it’s kind for Carmarthenshire (and I believe, Wales!). 11 teams of 6 players from Glan y Mor’s year 7 contested two groups, with the top two teams from each group progressing through to the semi-finals.
The standard of play was very high, with fantastic skills on display, especially considering that the tournament was the first time any of the pupils had seen or heard of Turbo Touch!
The game is very new and was only developed in New Zealand in 2009. It was created by Touch New Zealand in order to allow people to play indoors all year round, whatever the weather. Turbo Touch is highly popular throughout the country with adults as well as school pupils. Let’s see if it catches on in Wales too!
It was also thanks to a group of year 10 Sports Leaders that the tournament was such a success. Their help with refereeing, organising teams and working out the fixtures and results was invaluable!
Since the day was so successful, further tournaments are planned, as well as lunchtime and after school clubs for those that wish to carry on playing the game.
Turbo Touch! Llawer o hwyl! Lots of fun!

Ar y diwrnod olaf cyn gwyliau Nadolig mae disgyblion fel arfer yn eistedd yn eu dosbarthiadau a chwarae gemau ar y cyfrifiaduron neu wylio ffilmiau – ond nid eleni!
Fe fydd disgyblion Blwyddyn 7 Ysgol Glan y Môr yn cystadlu gyda’i gilydd mewn twrnamaint ‘Turbo Touch’. Llawer mwy o hwyl na eistedd ar eich pen-ôl! Rhagor o wybodaeth ar Turbo Touch fan hyn.
On the last day of school before Christmas, pupils usually sit in their classes playing games on the computers or watching films – but not this year!
Pupils in Year 7 will be competing against each other in a ‘Turbo Touch’ tournament. Loads more fun than sitting on your back-side!
