Euro's Update

Hi All,

Well we have just finished our final pool game here in Holland and what a great way to finish the competition. We pulled off a great result against Slovakia today to win 3-2. I played the opening singles and won 21-14 21-12. Alex Sim was up next and produced some great badminton to win 21-17 21-17. Daniel Magee lost 21-12 21-10 but myself and Sam Magee sealed the win with a 21-11 21-15 win in the first mens doubles. Matt and Daniel lost the final match in 3 sets with the score in the final set 24-22 but all in all it was a great win for us with such a young team.
Well done to all the lads on the team. They are a great bunch and we really enjoyed our time here in Holland representing Ireland. There is a bright future for irish Badminton with so many young players coming through.

The girls play later this evening and I will be more than likely flying home tomorrow as only the group winners go through to the knock out phase of this competition. Thanks to Leslie for his stewardship through the event and Next for me is the Austrian Open next week.

All the best

Scott
