Morning Tornados 

I hope you have all recovered from a hazy and social LONG weekend. A good number of Tornados,30 plus, adorned Boomerang on Saturday night, although none of the DOD's turned up, at least not in costume.
    
Results were not great this weekend but the 2 two teams that played, played some very good hockey under difficult conditions. The mens 1st XI lost 7-nil with 10 men (including two rising stars from the 3rd XI) against SRC who are effectively the Singapore national team. The team played well, everyone gave their all and we even had some scoring chances, Gary Lee's drag flick hit the post. The mens 4th XI lost narrowly to Jensenites 3-2 on Saturday (Lawrence scored a flick) and were unlucky not to draw. The 4s had to play again on Sunday with the same squad of 12 and lost 4 nil to Barkerites who were skillful and had many more subs.

Hopefully we will be back to normal availability from next weekend!    

Sadly Tim Jones leaves us this week- bound for Hong Kong. We have alraeady asked him to book tickets for the Rugby sevens and to expect lots of Tornaods in Hong Kong!

Tornados Hockey Club

Morning Tornados 

A fairly quiet week last week with the haze and an admin error affecting our hockey training, and the F1 taking up our weekend. Back to normal this week hopefully. Delta have assured us the pitch is now open and apologised for not telling us they were keeping the pitch closed an extra week! Sadly the pitch is not relaid or repaired; that is rumoured to be happening at the end of the year.   

We played two friendlies and one league game this week. The mens 4s and ladies 1s both drew vs SCC in their friendlies and the Ladies 1s drew in their league match versus Jensenites on Friday. Thanks to umpires Wayne, Sean and Sarah for umpiring the friendy games-much appreciated by both teams.

Dear Tornado,

I can assure you that this email has nothing to do with those dodgy offers you get, and I cannot offer you any cut price Viagra or growth pills.

What I can offer you is a rollicking good time, and all subsidised by our friends at Boomarang Bar, Boat Quay next Saturday night 26th September.

See you all next Saturday!

Our favourite Catalan:Joan Capdevilapuig won man of the tournament ! The mens 2ds De Bitterballen won the plate(came 3rd ) and the ladies teams De Hutspot and De Stroopwafles came 3rd and 4th.

Morning Tornados 

This weekend we said good bye to Kristina who, bye again to Alice (who will be back), happy birthday to Fishy and Jane and hello to yet more new Tornados players. Chloe, Clare, Maaike, Sam. 
On the pitch, our mens 1s lost 3-1 to the Dutch but played really well but we just couldn't score, the Dutch GK is pretty good and 8ft tall. The ladies had yet another walkover as their oposition have pulled out of the league, the mens 3s won 2-1 in a very good match where we could have probaly scored 3 or 4 more( misses from....?) the mens 4s lost 4 nil against I suspect a very young ORA playing at teh hottest time of the day.
