Day Four - French Double but Plucky Swedes pip Irish Open

I'm absolutley shattered after a great day's Ultimate so I'll keep this short and sweet. At 9.00am the Ladies put on a great display to beat the Latvians 17-9. At 11.00am the Men played France and won 17-12 in a strong, determined display of hard D and patient O. After lunch and an interview on radio and BBC TV the Women beat France in a tough 17-9 encounter,the first half was close but the girls put in a massive performance to win out well in the end. At 5pm the Men took on Sweden, the number 1 seeds and played well again, losing 17-13 (the closest the Swedes have been to a loss yet).






















Tomorrow sees the Ladies play at 9am again, against the Austians while the Men will take on the winner of Itlay vs Switzerland for a place in the semis. We are currently the 3rd seeds of the Championships!

Good night!
