European Ultimate Frisbee Championships 2007

It was super cool, despite paying the ridiculous £5 entry fee. Watched GB play Finland in the womans division final. It was not such a great game for the spectator with many throw aways and drops. Such mistakes make the game seem a little amature. Which is a shame, cos the players were definatly not, and had trained hard I am sure to play in the championships and worked super hard to make the finals. GB never looked like they would win, and lost in the end by a few points after the time cap went.





The mens game was the main event for me. With the final being contested between GB and Sweden. It was a wicked game. There were a few brakes of a point or two, but the game for the main traded points with GB and Sweden level at time. Game to 15, scores were 13:13 Sweden on offence (I think).



GB did not manage to get a break on the Swedish machine, and the score was 13:14. Time for GB offence to score. They made hard work of it, with one turn I think. They eventually scored, making it a game of sudden death, next point wins. It was a goodie, Wiggsy for Great Britain made some huge efforts, narrowly missing a defensive block in the Swedish end zone, and then making a huge lay out grab (which might have been out, but I was not complaining). Two throws later, we had scored and had won the EUC open finals.





Jb, Hannah and I were happy. Moritz and Aazani enjoyed it too I think. A fun day had by all...
