Hi Everyone, I was hoping to send out more reports this week but time has been against me - as well as internet availabilty.
So far the week has gone well. Sadly we are now out fo the running for a semi final position after losing to america (17-2), Sweden (16-13; a very tight game where our errors ended up costing the game) Australia (17-11: again tighter than the score was, we were pushing them hard but in the end ran out of steam at the end) and supirse package columbia (17-3: We were very poor and came up against a very fast team. We never got settled into our game and everyone was very disappointed). However we were successfull in games against Israel (17-5) and ended on top in what turned out to be the game of the tournament agaunst finland. After going 4-0 down the game went into half 9-7 in finlands favour. We did not start the second half well and found ourselves 13-9 down. We then got hot! The defense turned up the heat and after some huge layout D's and chilly O we were 15-13 up. It went to 16-16, game to 18, we took our offence with great cutting and making the right choices and then managed to get another big D to take the game 18-16. Everyones spirits are really high after the game, and with DoG and Twisted metal watching from the sideline the team have made a lot of real admirers over here. We have 2 games left, Canada tomorrow who are already in the semis and we fancy our chances, and then Sweden again for the 5-6 and best europena team spot. The last game is bound to be massive, especially after the tight game earlier in the week. The weather has been great for ultimate and the juniors are really loving the experience of being in one of the biggest ultimate hotspots in the world.
