They beat UTI by about 4 points(I think). Catch managed to have the upper hand all the way through the game, and despite a late rally by UTI, held on to secure a well-deserved, and excellent victory. Congratulations to them. The semis were also both exciting games. Catch beat Shotgun in a very close game. They traded for most of the game, with Catch finally pulling away in the closing stages of the game. UTI beat Chevron in the other semi. Chevvie led for the whole way, holding the upper hand right through the game. However, a solid period by UTI let them pull it back, and the game went to sudden death. Chevvie pulled to UTI, who proceeded to very calmly work the disc steadily up the pitch and into the zone for the victory. It was probably their calmest point in the whole game, I think (but, having been on the team that lost that game, I am biased!). I'm afraid that I don't know what the results lower down the table were. Sneeeky's won Spirit, though. The weekend was great. The weather was awful, but the facilities were excellent. Thanks to the organisers - the tourny ran really smoothly, as far as I could tell. It was also farewell to Shotgun, this being their last tournament. Thanks for the memories, guys! Now it looks like the traditional dominance of one team at the top has been replaced by a triumvarate of teams, all vying for the top spot. Let's hope that even more teams can be in a position to hit the top next year. Andy Chevron Action Flash acotgreave@rmplc.net
