Tournament end

Hello bloggers.

So the tournament is over for another year and for myself it has left a feeling of 'what if?'

From a good win against the Ukrainians where I finally opened my account for the tournament, and with good performances from the rest of the team, we then struggled to break down the solid defence of Grange, not learning our lessons from the Ukrainian game and gifted too many goals.
Going into the Grange game we could have gone 3rd with a draw and top win a win. The pressure told as too many of the team did not perform.
The loss, on a selfish note, was especially disappointing as a twisted ankle meant I couldn't see the game out and may jeopardise the upcoming GBSL weekends.
The 7/8th play off the match at 8.30 on Monday morning was not a great spectacle from the stands. We won, ending our tournament on a positive note but all were still gutted about the previous day.

Thank you to Naz and Tizer for your hard work and support. Also thank you to the University of Glamorgan and to Slazenger, also for your support.
My biggest thank you is to the the organisers, volunteers, and the supporters that made this event possible. Sorry we weren't able to bring back a trophy.
