European Meeting and Singapore

Published: 06.01.2018

After a long night for me, we started early again today.

Our first match started at 9 o'clock.

This time we played against the European ladies from England!

The English showed from the beginning that they wouldn't give us anything for free and gave everything to stop our attacks. Nevertheless, we were able to take a 3-1 lead. Then the English called a timeout. The British caught up to 3-3 after the timeout, as we had lost some pressure. But we quickly regained our composure and went into halftime with 8-4.

After halftime, the ladies from England received moral support from the men's team. This pushed them and they fought back to 9-7. Our side then called a timeout! Clear speech, a short burst of motivation, and some individual tips, and we took control of the game again!

Final score 15-9 and thus the 4th victory!


After a short break, we played against Singapore.

A game that, like yesterday against the Philippines, was played on the upper fields. Today, too, the wind at this time was very strong and made the game very difficult again. After 22 minutes and numerous turnovers, it was 3-2 for us. When it was halftime time according to the clock, the actual score (8 points) had not yet been reached, so the next highest point was played, which allowed us to go into halftime with 6-3.

In the second half, we clearly got used to the wind better and faster. It was also clear that the game would be decided by time and not by reaching 15 points.

This game was also a hard-fought victory, which we rewarded ourselves with an 11-4 result!


After the game, it was time to stretch and go to the hotel for dinner. Some watched the men's quarter-finals against Switzerland, the rest went to the hotel and to me for treatment.

Tomorrow is the most important day of the tournament. We will first play against Colombia and then against Australia! We have to beat both teams to make it to the semi-finals, which will be played on Saturday.

So let's make sure everyone is fit and start the day tomorrow at full throttle.
