WE QUALIFIED!!!! Wohoo!!
We played both Exeter 1 and Exeter 3 (Exeter being last years champions in our class
) so needless to say we didn't think we had much chance!
We beat Exeter 1 (our first game) 2:1 and it actually felt quite easy! It was a really nice flowing game, got some fantastic ride offs, one of which I nearly came off at at the 2 horses reins, bits and out sticks got a little tangles
but it felt great!
To qualify after that win all we needed to do was beat Exeter 3 or Exeter 1 had to be knocked out in their second game - which they were so that eased the pressure as we were through with 1 game to play!
Then we played Exeter 3 who won 1:0 on a penalty! Grr! And that game was horrible - very stop-start, not flowing and the ball seemed to end up stuck between 6 horses legs and not going very far.
BUT the grin on my face is stretched from ear to ear!! I had the most fantastic day, a huge amount of fun and the bonus was qualifying for the National Final
next week!!
A very happy Ginn!!!!

Oh and our other teams all qualified too and we completely thrashed one team with about 8 goals to 1!!! hehe
I'll post some pics tomorrow probably as Im shattered, haven't eaten or washed since I got back (only 1/2 hour ago) and am in work from 8.30-12!!
