Competition Time

Woops, we missed last week!

I guess time flys a lot faster when we are in competition and travelling more frequently!

Last week was the first of our 8 back to back events. We played in Gstaad, Switzerland and it was BEAUTUIFUL!

Playing wise, we had a good first game and even though we lost our second, there was some really good stuff. We had to play the very experienced, crafty team from Canada. It was very close and it was a couple of our mistakes that lost it - all it takes aye.

We then came to Moscow, Russia for our second Grand Slam. It was such a mission getting visa's for here and it would be easy to say that it was not worth the hassel! We lost our first game in qualifier and I have no problems admitting that I lost it for us! Even after Suz accidently hit a hard ball into my face in the warm up, I failed to fire up and struggled.

Lesson learned for me - no sleeping pill the night before competition no matter how badly i've slept previous nights!

So, now we move onto Marseille, France! It is tough once on the move and living out of hotels and finding food etc! But we deal with it obviously (making mistakes and learning along the way!)

Suz will hopefully have the pleasure of updating you next week on Marseille!
