Pre Tour Punditry from the Voice of UK Ultimate

Wednesday, March 24th, 2004

Tom Styles proves he’s a good sport by trying to predict the outcome of the tour again this year. This what he said about us:

Out of the ashes of last year’s tour 1 winners (Chevron South) come another big squad to train on Clapham’s common. There are some big hitters amongst the line up. Several ex Leeds and Druid faces will wear Fire’s Green. Jeff Jackson’s guiding hand is invaluable in the experience/training/fitness stakes. Fire1 are my favourites to upset their South London neighbours. They will win at least 1 tour (probably tour 1 ;-> ). Fire2 are a strong side but like LLLeeds2 may flirt with the drop on a couple of occasions.

Friday, March 12th, 2004

Well done Clapham, they got both their teams into the final. Fire 1 finished 3rd ahead of Icy Dykes from Amsterdam. Big thanks to Iceni for organising a fantastic party (featuring many comedy moments) and we hear the womens skills day was a great success too. The proceeds from this years tournament are going to WaterAid. Thanks to all the other teams for making it a great day.

Fire become 2003/2004 Winter League Champions!!!

Saturday, March 6th, 2004

Fire beat the top teams from the Northern, Midlands, Bristol and London winter leagues, as well as guests Amsterdam and Wall City Berlin to take the Winter League / Charity Shield title. Fire 1 dominated the tournament, winning all their matches decisively. Fire 2 finished a strong 6th, notabling beating Amsterdam in sudden death. We didn’t have it all our way though, Clapham took the prize for best comedy moment of the season so far thanks to valiant sideline efforts from Scando during the final.
