The 17U win back to back Gold medals after another successful weekend away.

The 17U traveled to Kingston for the 18U Girls Open Championship – East this past weekend.

This day would prove to be a more relaxing pace with little stress. The girls easily finished 1st in their pool play. Although we still encountered lengthy wait times between matches, Curtis once again broke out “Name that Tune”. This time the game was just amongst the girls but it was soon evident the whole auditorium was eager to participate.

Our cross over game was against Riverdale Royals. The first match went to Attack 25/14. At this point Curtis decided to rest our one and only setter “Sarah”. This set up a very entertaining second match. It was back to basic simple rotation with position 3 setting. The girls had fun with this strategy and quite enjoyed their turn setting. Final score Attack 25/16.
 

The next break would see the girls test their eye, hand coordination with a coin toss. Alanna proved to be quite skilled at this and was able to catch 19 coins at once. However Dani, never to be under estimated with her competitive edge, was very close if not the same!
 

Our semi final match had us facing DRVC 17U. Attack dominated, winning both sets 25/9 and 25/14.

With an empty court available, both teams available, we (Cris) were able to persuade the convenor to move our game ahead (yeah)! Our final Gold medal game was against the Barrie Elites. Attack came out strong and once again dominated winning 25/18 and 25/19. We finished the day 10-0.
 
A special thanks to Mike and Robert. Mike who put together a fabulous lunch for us all and Robert our dependable lines man!
