Canberra League Cup

The inaugural Canberra League Cup was played last Saturday. 6 teams turned up to play on what was a lovely sunny Canberra day. The tournament was held at Dickson playing fields.

Div. 2 winners, Discotheque, split their team in two for the tournament. They played off in the first game of the day, with Discotheque 1 proving the stronger of the two teams with some strong div. 3 pick-ups. Div. 2 runners-up ANU started the day slow, scraping in a draw against The Empire after being down 6-3. ANU soon found form and the favourites tag after beating Discotheque 1 8-7 in an epic double game point game to finish top after the pool games.

Dickey knees won 3 of their 4 games to take equal second with Discotheque 1. The Empire rounded out the top 4 with Dynoshite and Discotheque 2 fighting for 5th.

Discotheque 1 defeated Dickey Knees in their semi while ANU was too good this time around for The Empire.

Discotheque started strong in the final with the youngest player in the ACT, Sam Joyce throwing the first goal, after catching a stall 9 flick from Jodie Wilson. Both teams scored their first few offenses with scores trading until Discotheque finally unsettled the until then solid ANU offense with a strong zone defense. Discotheque ran away with the game winning the inaugural Canberra League Cup.

Discotheque 2 picked up spirit to cap off a great Autumn of frisbee.

Thanks to Mikey Hatfield, and the ANU for a great tournament.
