14 teams competed in this year's U17s indoor championships. Great games
all weekend with excellent spirit. The top 3 places were extremely
closely contested with Airbadgers 1 (last year's champions) just losing
out to NC Hammer in the pool stages setting up the more difficult semi
final against Ocelots 1. Losing their captain at 3-5 to a suspected
broken finger didn't help and they narrowly lost. In the other semi,
Artic lost out to NC Hammer. And so to the final where Ocelots started in
great form playing some very safe offence. 4 mistakes from NC Hammer and
they found themselves 5-0 down. They found their game after that and
traded till the final whistle with some great athletic plays, but really
had no answer to the Sam Green/Michael Connor partnership. Final score
was Ocelots 12, NC Hammer 7. Special mention to Airbadgers who managed to
field 4 teams including 12 year 7s playing. Ocelots 2 won the Plate (9th
place), Deva ran away with the Spirit award, and Sam Green won MVP. In
the special challenge matches, Airbadgers beat Ocelots/Artic in the U13s
match 8-5; and Ocelot girls lost to the Deva/Catch Those/Artic combo team
4-6. Johanna took the trophy even though she switched teams at half time
and only conceded one point all game. With 60 juniors signing up to try
out for GB U17s, expect quite a strong team to be at tour 0 as they
compete with each other for a place in Southampton. Final places...1
