DUB Tournie 2007

DUB Tournie 2007 - Winners

After a weekend of great ultimate, Mixed Veg overcame Princess Layout in a hotly contested final, 14-12.

After trading points at the outset, the Veggies took an 8-5 lead. Some great long throws from Marko to Al brought back memories of yesteryear. Hucks were also coming from unlikely sources as handlers went long and kept the D guessing.

Princess were never going to roll over and brought the game back to 9-9. The Veg were never afraid of winning the game and took a 12-9 lead. Princess retaliated to make 12-10 as a result with more of their effective deep offence. Time had been called and it was a game to 14.

Another point with patient handling by MV gave us game point (13-10). Princess again came back to keep it interesting right to the death. 13-11 and the Veg on offence, with Princess playing zone D. Again, the handlers were happy to move the disc and keep it safe. Lindsay, Nialler, Rob and Luan put it through the hands gaining yards as we went. With the disc on the sideline Nialler sent a break flick toward the crowd-side of the field, seeing Rob lurking menacingly (resting) break side. Quick feet check and catch for the score... Finally an Irish team had won their home event.

The victorious team was:

Rob Kiely
