In all it was a good year seeing many new faces, we hope they join us again next year. The men are very close to fielding 4 mens teams.


Phoenix was represented again by Diane and Steve Groeber in Wisconsin. The Eastern Fistball Association (Phoenix and SSC) has gone to play in Wisconsin for the last 7 years. We fielded 2 mens teams this year. They came in first and fourth out of 7 teams (yes that is 6 games played in one day for each team). They adopted world cup rules in regard to ending a game by points (first to reach 21) versus playing by time. We met Rodrigo and his brother Ito, of Argentina (currently residing in Texas). Both are world class players, helping us achieve the great outcome. They are welcome friends in our beloved sport. We are hopeful in 2009 to host a club from Germany. They are keeping in touch via email.

 

I have accumulated a number of website hyperlinks which displays the game. Hope you enjoy them. See you next year – Thursday after Mothers Day – 2009.
