DCU Eagles 11 - 10 Homerton (12/11/2011)

A thankfully dry day on Parker’s Piece hosted what has got to be one of the hardest and most controversial games of Ultimate in my time at DCU. As I turned up to watch Lions vs. Darkside, my first concern was where on earth I could fit an ultimate sized pitch into the worryingly crowded green space around us.

DCU Eagles 2 - 13 Trinity Ultimate

Hey DCU,

So it's not quite Tebboth's level of prose, but I gave it a shot.

On a foggy day in November when the sun forgot to get up, when not even a rousing bonfire could bring warmth to freezing fingers, Downing Eagles set out to battle Trinity on green green (heavily watered) grass of Parker's Piece. As the warm up began, the omens were not good. A captain and several key players out for SB or otherwise missing. A stand in captain nowhere in sight (and I quote: 'sozzle'). Yet heads were not yet bowed. Claire led a super warm up, with great emphasis on the aquatic nature of ultimate (gotta be able to swim to win). Then gradually we accrued late running players, to start the game with 9 (not on the pitch obviously, that's cheating).
