I can't really do a tournament report as I didn't get to see much of
anything as I was too busy running around either playing or organising.
I can however tell you what happened to Skunks
(which I know you are all interested in!)
Skunks played some of their best Ultimate this year. After finding it nearly
impossible to put teams out to some tournaments (notably the Students) we
finally fielded our strongest team. A win against Red 2 put us in a pool
with Strange Blue and Twin Peaks. A hard fought game left Skunks two points
behind Strange Blue in our second game. This was a shame, but we were carried
on happily to beat Twin Peaks very convincingly who had beaten us twice
previously at tour events. We therefore held our seeding.
On Sunday play just got better. Beating Janitors first thing in the morning
gave us justthe boost we hoped for, becoming 14th seeds. We then went on to
hold our seeding against Nightfever with an extremely close game. Finally we
arrived at the plate final with hopes of grabbing some silverware at our
tournament. Unfortuantely the slightly more experienced Superfly managed to
beat us, but not with out a fight.
I think I would be right in saying Skunks are the highest placed student
only team in the Tour at the moment. Hopefully this will impress the AU
who will give us more money!!
Thanks to everyone for coming. It was probably my best ever tournament, and
even with the stress of organising it all, I still had an immense amount of
fun and played my best ever games.
I really hope everyone enjoyed the tournament, the party, the big TV,
the pitches and especially the sun which all made up for the fact that I
didn't have a clue what was going on half the time.
See you all next year (and at Exeter)
Will
ps Unfortuantely the lost property went home with another Skunk, so I don't
have a list of it. I can rememeber a leather jacket, a tent !! , a hooded
BHS top, a pair of brown deck shoes, a pair of mizuno trainers, and loads
of other trash. I will bring the stuff to Exeter. Don't e-mail me as I am
not here as of 5 minutes time!!!
pps Wayne, I don't have the detailed Spirit listings, Tim does, although he
may not still have them as he didn't know to keep them. I'll phone him up to
find out, then I'll get him to either bring them to Exeter or something.
As he is no longer on e-mail you may want to phone him: 01703 672581
