Off to China

Heading to Beijing tomorrow! We are playing in a small tournament called the Good luck Beijing games. It is a practice run for Beijing to get everything organised for the 2008 Olympics. We are playing on the Olympic playing surface and using all the facilities so its very exciting. Other teams are Malaysia, Pakistan and of course China.
As i said, leaving tomorrow so check this site for news on our games!

Spain!

We finished off an amazing tour of Europe with out best 3 games against Spain. Winning all 3, and along the way celebrating Wellsys 200th game! an amazing achievement and one that was recognised by everyone whilst we were overseas. Wellsy got the honour of captain the milestone game and I am sure it will be a memorable one for him as we managed to get a 2 - 1 win. Our first game was a little more comfortable with a 4 - 0 win while in the last game we finished off the tour with another 4 - 1 win. David Guest bagged a hat-trick of drag flicks to get us over the line!
Spain was probably my favourite place of the tour. we got a day off in between games to go exploring. Some of us hired cars and navigated ourselves around some of Spains' beaches and other places. Most notably, Mundaka and San Sebastion. Both amazing places and the day was very enjoyable. Sometimes it is a good idea on tour to have a day completely away from hockey and the hotel to make sure we stay refreshed on such a long tour with so much hockey.
Back in Perth briefly for a few weeks training before we head off to Beijing, China for a 2 week tour!
