ACT Mixed Nationals teams

Hello Everyone

If you want to take up one of the ACT mixed nationals team spots for the 2010 competition, please ensure that you get in touch with someone from the ACTUA committee before this weekend (4th and 5th of September).

We just have to ensure that there are no undeclared teams that are thinking of popping up out of nowhere.

Leaving a comment on this blog with contact details will suffice.

Under 19s World Champs games LIVE at 4:30

Hello avid readers,

The Australian tilt for the under 19s World Champsionships starts today in Heilbronn, Germany. Luckily for all of us, Ballarat blog maestro Simon Talbot is at the fields providing live updates through his forcesideline website. At under 23s Simon was using Twitter but apparently in the last couple of minutes of his comentary on the nailbiting Women's final, which Australia won, Twitter decided he was a spammer and blocked his account. Now he's updating directly to his website, which is nifty because I find Twitter new and intimidating.

So, at 4:30 this afternoon (that's the 3rd of August) Terra, the Australian under 19s women's team, take on Sweden. Sweden have traditionally been a strong European frisbee nation but things are always a bit mixed up in the youth divisions so this should be an interesting game to keep track of. Head here for live updates from 4:30. It's almost as good as being there with a bag over your head and having someone tell you what's going on. For those of you on mobile devices he's also updating on Twitter and Facebook but not as often. You'll have to look at Simon's website to work out how to do that because I'm technologically illiterate.
