Summary:

A successful tournament. The tournament was contested by 6 teams and about 24 pupils. Special guests Warren Heilig from Australia (soon to be London Skolars player) and Scott Edwards from England (founder of Sweden RL) were there to see the kids play. They saw their enthusiasm, motivation, enjoyment and most of all, their great skills.

At the end of the tournament, the best boy and girl were each given their own shirt, sponsored by London Skolars club. Thank you to London for donating the shirt and to Warren for presenting it.

All in all, a great day. RL is truly up and running in this school.

The tournament was filmed on camera, so the kids will be able to view this on DVD sometime next week. If you would like a copy, get in contact with me.

It was a good day Justin, you can really see how much the kids enjoy it, keep it up.

I just want to say how welcome Malin and I felt at your school, all the staff we met were very freindly. I don't remember telling you, but did you know that I got roped into talking to one of the classe's English lessons before meeting you and Warren? Shortly after comming though the entrance doors I bumbed into a teacher and asked for you, she asked me if I could do her the favour of talking to the kids. Naturally, I was more than happy to do it.

Can you pass on our thanks to the school for making us feel welcome.

Thank you for your kind words mate. It was a pleasure having the both of you here. Naturally, the teachers were very excited when I told them you were coming. Our school loves accepting guests and they want them to feel as appreciated as possible. I will tell them about your appreciation of their kindness on monday mate

Thanks for coming and I hope the both of you can make the trip down the E6 for another tournament sometime in the future.
