The Roger Brummitt Mixed Tournament - Peterborough

Ely and Market Deeping drinking together?.....whatever next....

The Ely Mixed XI travelled to Peterborough this weekend for the annual Roger Brummitt memorial tournament. A different format this year meant that on Sunday the teams split into a cup league and a plate league depending on the results from Saturday. Ely results were as follows:

Saturday
Ely 2 - Blue-Green Zeds 0 (Ed Hugo, Tim Reynolds)
Ely 2 - March 0 (Tommy Hugo, Jo Rayner)
Ely 0 - Jurrassic Beavers 3

Sunday (The Cup!!)
Ely 1 - Market Deeping 4 (Tommy Hugo)
Ely 0 - Rebels 3
Ely 0 - GPO 1

The Ely team spent the Saturday night drinking with members of the Blue-Green Zeds and shock-horror...Market Deeping! Late in the night the team demonstrated some amazing dance moves led by Ely Hockey Club 'official' dancer Ali Chapman...tables, chairs and pool tables were all used to good effect. A special shameful mention for Ely player Chris Purlant who spent the whole tournament playing for Deeping.

Quotes of the tournament: 'I can smell the bell' - Henry (Blue-Green Zeds), 'I don't want to make a mole out of a molehill' - Ali (Ely)

Roll on the Ely tournament...
