Sunday, July 22nd - Opening Matches

After a good nights rest everyone met at the Timperley Clubhouse for a "Glorious" Day of sunshine and lacrosse.  When the big ball of what we call Sun came out, we had to explain to our new British friends what it was. They were just amazed at its brightness and heat, in fact, I think it got to us all because I still do not have a clear answer on the score of the 2nd boys game.  But I can tell you, everyone played well and had a great time.  The U14 boys decided to give an old fashion spanking, winning 12-0.  As for the U16 boys, pick a number that you like and add 3 for Timperley. Timperley did win by 3.  We think it was 12-9.

 As for the girls, we only had 2 games today instead of 4.  Thank you to 4 of our new friends from Heaton Mersey as they helped fill in our U14 team. The game was hard fought but ended in a tie of 7-7.  The U16 team won 12-6.  Everyone enjoyed a picnic lunch packed by their host family and then all went on their way to enjoy the rest of the day.  Many of the girls are headed to the One Direction concert tonight, so that was the big talk at the matches.  Hopefully they will have some pictures to post.  Enjoy the pictures from today and don't forget to check the facebook page as well.
