WMUCC GB Club Recap

Editor/Writer: Hazard (he/him)

I've tried to include spirit scores and top playmaker stats for each team (assists+goals). For mixed playmaker stats, I tried to include both the male-matching playmaker and the female-matching playmaker. Where there was a tie, I've used the play who did it in the fewest games. Apologies if I've messed up anywhere - let me know and I'll correct things! For spirit, I've included any "4"s received. No "0"s were received by any British team. The Masters Open/Women/Mixed finals may alter finishing spirit positions slightly.

This was originally posted on the UK Sofa Sideline group, but I felt like I'd put enough effort into the post to preserve it here too.

Devon finish 21st/22nd overall with a win/loss against Gentle-OLD of Belgium (I'll update once the score is on the website). Richard Coward finished as top playmaker, with 17 assists + 13 goals. They finish 5th in spirit overall with a score of 12.38. I'm including their spirit comment from Masterclass because it made me chuckle in a good way - "very sexy very sound.in a very rare turn of events the spirit in the first half was excellent and then improved even more in the second"

Masters Mixed (33 teams)
Reading Ultimate finished 13th with a 15-9 win over Heidees of Germany. They were the 3rd highest European team. Their top male/female playmakers were Sam Gunbie with 30 assists and 2 goals/Helen Roberts with 6 assists and 13 goals. They finished 12th in spirit with a score of 11.56.

Thundering Herd finished 13th with a 15-9 win over Heidees of Germany. Their top male/female playmakers were Sion Regan with 17 assists and 6 goals/Xueya (Julie) Zhao with 6 assists and 13 goals. They finished 9th in spirit with a score of 11.75.

They finished 7th in spirit with a score of 11.90. They received two "4"s - in attitude against RJP, and in fairmindedness gainst Old Main Line Frankfurt. Accoridng to RJP, "best game we've had spirit wise with another team".

Grand Masters Open (15 teams)
Zimmer finished 5th after beating Shadows of USA 15-14. They finish as highest European team, and highest British team in any division. Their top playmaker was David Sealy (who finished 4th overall) with 16 assists and 18 goals. They finished 4th in spirit with a score of 12.30

Grand Masters Mixed (11 teams)
Big Fish, Little Fish finish 9th overall, beating Cur$!ve of Canada 15-8. They finish as the highest European team in the division. Their top male/female playmakers were Matt Anderson with 29 assists and 3 goals/Claerwen Snell with 1 assist and 14 goals. While it's hard to know precisely (WFDF don't show gender tables so I'm guessing the best I can), I believe Claewen was 6th amongst female-matching players in the division. They also WON SPIRIT in their divison, with a score of 13.67. They received two "4"s, both in communication (from HiJinx and Woodies).

Great Grand Masters Open (10 teams)
FLASH finished 8th overall, losing 8-15 to JETS of France in their final game. Their top playmaker was Rouven Schreck with 32 assists and 3 goals (which saw him 2nd overall in the division). Simon Church also made the overall top 10 leaderboards, finishing 6th with 1 assist and 27 goals. Rouven apparently assisted 14 of Simon's goals. They finish 3rd overall in spirit, with a score of 12.90. This includes two "4"s from Relics in Rules and Attitude, but also a perfect 20 score from Recycled (with no comment). Recycled gave twenty nine(!) "4"s across 12 games, with one comment of "Very nice team" for the other 20 they awarded. This isn't related to FLASH, I just felt it worth noting.
