Two sides made up of local (and special guest) players took part in the Bristol DD cup this weekend under the guise of ‘Thundercats’ and ‘Eagles’. This regular tournament is a favourite for the local Bird of Prey sides (Falcons, Phoenix & Eagles) and always helps get their season off to a good start.
On a tough first day Thundercats advanced to the Cup competition with two wins and a draw whereas the Eagles had a rough time of it with four losses to make the plate competition.
On day two both teams were rejuvenated (possibly by the local apple-based refreshment) with Thundercats going 3-1 and Eagles going an unbeaten 4-0 to make both of their respective finals however dreams of a Jersey double were not to be with both sides finishing as runner-up.
An excellent weekend from Eagle Leah Cunningham earned her the Tournament MVP Award.
Team MVPs for Thundercats were Sam Lempriere & Chaz Cunningham and for Eagles were Nick Henley & Caitlyn Hennessy who was playing competitively for the first time!
