Moin Deutschland, wegen der fortgeschrittenen Stunde gibt es jetzt keine extra Tageszusammenfassung durch die deutsche Brille, sondern nur meine Wurfpostmail weitergeleitet. Aber es schaut seeehr gut aus, auch für unsere Teams: nach den kleinen Dämpfer im Eröffnungsspiel haben heute die deutschen Teams alle 7 Spiele gewonnen. Also seht zu, dass Ihr in den nächsten Tagen mal vorbei schaut auf der Wiese vorm Kölner Stadion, es gibt viel zu sehen! Gute Nacht, Chris -- Christoph Dehnhardt <[email protected]> +49 - 341 - 5901880
Gesendet: Mittwoch, 07. August 2013 um 00:52 Uhr Von: "Christoph Dehnhardt" <[email protected]> An: eurodisc <[email protected]> Betreff: EYUC 2013 Roundup day 1 and 2 EYUC 2013 Roundup day 1 and 2 Hi Europe, 41 national teams are gathered here in Cologne, to play out the four divisions: Junior (U20) women and open, and U17 girls and open. The ASV Cologne stepped in 9 months ago to make this unique event possible, and have put in a great show. The tournament started with a ceremony and the opening match Monday afternoon, with beautiful weather and high spirits. Some 1000 people in the ASV Cologne stadium then witnessed the comeback of the GBR U17 open squad, who after a 5th place in 2012 came back strong to take on the champions and hosts, Germany, in a hot match to take half time at 8:6. In the second half, they kept it up while GER had some unforced errors, to secure the first GBR victory in this event. Tuesday then had the same fabulous weather, 28 degrees and sunny. First surprises: U17 The brand new Dutch U17 girls team beat GBR 13:11, and GER beat the current champion AUT. More excitement comes tomorrow, when the classic GER-GBR match takes place. In U17 open, the closest match was seed 3 FRA beating seed 5 AUT, but subsequently AUT beat #2 seed Israel. ISR had started with a 15:09 victory over SWE. So GBR is in the lead as the only team with 2 wins, followed by FRA, AUT, GER, ISR, SWE and IRE with 1 victory. Junior divisions Germany Junior Women and Junior Open started with a 17:0 victory each, but the open team then faced a fierce Israel, who took the lead at 6:5. Final score, after amazing scenes from both teams, was 17:12 for Germany. GBR and FRA open go undefeated, but the Swedes gave FRA one hell of a match, ending 14:15. After SWE beat IRE 16:15, IRE now faces FRA in the morning, hoping to force them into a 3 way tie in pool C. The Czech republic surprized Italy 17:09, an susequently also beat FIN 17:03. AUT beat the same 2 teams, so the pool final between AUT and CZE at 11:30 today will be a highlight. CZE women did likewise, beating GBR and ISR. FRA women had to bough to newcomer AUT 12:16, and Latvia had a slow 1:7 start against Finland, so FIN won 17:11. GER seems the team to beat, after their clear two victories today, but ITA and AUT also go undefeated. ISR vs IRE and FRA vs RUS will be exciting games, the 11:30 time slot looks veeery promising, as the two neighbours duels, SVK-CZE and GBR-IRE later in the day. The Junior open already move on to the 2nd round in the afternoon, whereas all other divisions continue in pool play. You can find all tournament info, schedules and results on line, at http://results.ultimatefederation.eu/?view=poolstatus&Pool=1068 http://www.eyuc2013.com/?page_id=50 The organization is running smoothly, and the excellent fields, 8 pitches side by side on the premises known from the Disc Days Cologne, are a perfect base for the tournament. The sunny weather is keeping spirits up, we actually hope for some more clouds so the teams do not wear out too much before the playoff stage. Quarters and semis happen on Thursday and Friday, and finals Saturday. All the best, Chris EUF youth committee _______________________________________________ Wurfpost mailing list [email protected] http://list.uni-koblenz.de/mailman/listinfo/wurfpost
