Kia ora BD/UU,

Cambridge Ultimate hosted Midlands University Open Outdoor Regionals last weekend, on an overcast and windy Saturday followed by a pleasingly, gloriously sunny Sunday (which made our hireage of an ice cream van look much less a ludicrous choice of catering).

There was a great standard of ultimate on show, with the battles for the Nationals qualification spots producing a series of close, quality matches.

If you're interested in the game-by-game scores you can check out Twitter: @strangeblueulti

The Spirit prize, of course, went to OW 1. They've already gotten a Shield and a bottle of delicious spirit, and will also be receiving a set of MUOOR 2012-branded Buffs from our sponsors, Scimitar.

I'd like to thank all the teams for coming along and making it a great weekend, and especial thanks to our TD, Lord Strachan (n.b.: not actually a Lord) and his army of volunteers, who picked up rubbish, kept the water bottles filled, and all those other little things that make a tournament work.

I can only hope that this weekend's weather for UMON is as good!

Cheers,

- Mike
Strange Blue President 2011-12
