Day 4 Touch Euros 2014

Just a very short post because we’re heading out to celebrate… I’ll write properly tomorrow.

Ireland Senior Mixed Open – European Bronze Medalists!

We beat Wales 7-5 in the final!

And by the way, we earlier drew 7-7 with England who we ran ragged. It probably had some effect on the final which they went on to lose to Scotland. I’m sure they were fatigued from playing us.

Unbeaten in our last five games… that’s not a bad way to leave a championship.
