The Hammered Tortoise And The Scruffy Hare

We had heard the rumours that they were like energiser bunnies on speed but they started slowly, very slowly, wet batteries probably. In fact they didn’t even show up for our 11am game so it wasn’t until about 2pm that we managed to reschedule the game and boy did we regret it!

Deep “Without” Pete Get Skewered…

They thought that it would never happen but we had faith and finally the impossible has become reality....Kebab Hammer won a game!

The draw with LDW was an excellent moment because it was a really good game against the most friendly team in the League (surely they won Spirit?) but to beat a team of the pedigree of Deep Heat was a truely excellent moment!

And They're SCRUFF!!

Too fast and too fit were the complaints levelled by the older, less fit Deep Heat as SCRUFF took their first victory of the Summer League, 10-5.

In a one-sided match, SCRUFF showed that a team willing to run in both defense and offense can potentially upset many an experienced team. Often the ability of SCRUFF to break down field after a turnover proved too much as they were able to pick up scores on the break despite Deep Heat having the lion's share of posession.

LDW on the CHASE

The match that was billed “the peoples final” very nearly turned into a match that never was, with the LDW captain Moo struggling for players in the lead up to match. Valiant cries of “We will play with 4…the LDW never quit” were heard with only hours to go. With the match getting closer he managed to pull a team together, and for everyone’s sake we were glad he did.

Mark it in your diaries, 10th June 2008 at 7pm was the beginning of the second largest Ultimate Frisbee League in Ireland!! Ok, there isn't a lot of competition with just the one other league in Dublin but nonetheless an occasion to be proud of. An exciting event showing how Ultimate is growing in Belfast and beyond. 

On this occasion just four teams were required for the two matches. On one pitch The LDW took on Deep Heat whilst on the other CHASE played Kebab Hammer.
