We ended up having only four chairs modified to the latest international standards, and another four repaired after a hard fought tournament in Warm Springs.

The team is now settled in Montgomery, Alabama, and practice has been going well for the players, but not so well for the chairs. The practice gym is a bit small, and the guys are playing with a lot of intensity. For some unimaginable reason, when you combine a smashing Canadian speedster with a brick wall, the wall seems to win. Luckily for us, our host is well connected in the city, and the mobile welding crew from the city of Montgomery was able to come to our rescue... twice!

The concept of "southern hospitality" is living up to its reputation! Thanks Fred!

The guys are pumped for their re-match against the powerful Australians in the first game of the Mini International Tournament, set to start tomorrow at 2:00 CST.
