BCI Windup

Those fab fellas at Firestorm have wound up the last on-field info for last weekend's Brisbane-Canberra Invitational. Check it out. Great job.

What did you think of it? Should we use this venue again? What about the results - any surprises (like what was the story with FU on Day 1, and is the Women's game still too small to produce 8 quality teams)? And what does this say about form for Regionals and Nationals? And does Canberra have any chance to improve when they host in 2011, or will they be like Athens after Sydney?

Answers in the comments, please.

The venue should definitely be used again, those fields were great. I dont know how many fields have good lighting, but it would be great if there were enough to allow both BUML divisions in the 1 location.

At present, there seems to be enough lighting for the three Ultimate fields in front of the clubhouse we used. Bit tight though. There could be opportunities to help develop the fields in the future, if we develop a long term relationship with the venue.

The Hockey Association fed back that they were very happy with our use on the weekend. The fields were well cared for all left neat and tidy.

I think the future of Monday night mixed is either multiple locations or separate Leagues. BUML is in a bit of transition at the moment, and I think doing the best it can. Although this would be a question for the new BUDA or whoever's going to try to do a strategy for Brisbane Ultimate.
