Ballafornia defeated Monash 13-10 at league on Monday night. We had myself, Dan, Woodley, Troy, Doobie, Nath, Major, Rockbeat, Sezzy and Smithers. How many of that lot get to face up to Monash at Uni Games?
Three - Doobie, Nath and Rockbeat.
After the initial excitement that we might actually be able to field an alumni team for the first time this year (there's nearly enough Ballarat alumni in Japan for a team), we thought we are in real strife with only a small base to recruit from.
However, rewind back to this time of year in 2005 and have a look at what BUUF had - me, Lyle, Sezzy and Em C, all with only one tournament and a half decent forehand under our belt. We didn't know Dan and Dion were starting uni, hadn't meet any of The Buds, didn't know Rockbeat or Emma, and Major still thought we were joking.
Ultimate now has a bigger profile than 3 years ago and many first years would have had a crack at it in PE classes. I'm very optimistic and, hell, even EXCITED, about the coming weeks of recruiting newbies.
Time for BUUF's 3rd wave.
