Hi everyone,

just a quick update after day 2 of worlds.

GB Open played USA (DoG from Boston) this morning,
with the idea of having fun. The relaxed play and huge celebrations from
GB put them 6-4 up, and forced USA to take a time-out
after a huge grab off a mac in the zone by Si Weeks.
The time out didn't seem to help as Boston lost the first 
half 10-7 (games to 19).
DoG's Defence coordinator commented to Steve Mooney, their capt,
that none of their numerous junk D's seemed to stop the fluid GB
Offence. 
However, Boston stepped up their D in the 2nd half, taking 5 in a
row after half. and the game finished 19-11 to USA.

GB Women played close games against both Sweden and Finland, with the 
lead trading places many times during the games. GB lost both games by 2 
points, although due to the format of round robin pool play then 
1/4's and the dramatic improvment of the GB team during the first 2 days 
both finland and sweden will not be looking forward to a rematch.

Juniors thrashed Germany yesterday, but have lost to USA, Sweden and
Canada.

Thats all for now, check the tourney web page for more results,
unless it is as badly organised as the transportation here, in which
case we will be home to tell you before you find out on the web.


Sonic & Si W
