Citius. Altius. Fortius.
The olympics was soooo distracting!!! Thank goodness I now get my sleep back, however, I have to admit I have been completely inspired and a little awestruck by the countless amazing acts of sportsmanship, team efforts, talent and all that other stuff that makes up the olympics. Its a bit like the Tornados right? Well at least a few of us.. one at LEAST I know for his sport prowess but not so much his drinking ability which he had on show on super saturday.. all the same...
We bid a sad farewell to a true Tornado this week, with Joo-Seuk Maing (aka Joosie), leaving our shores to Tokyo. Joosie has been with Tornados for around 4 years and in that time, he has captained the men's 1s, winning the Division 1, the Vietnam tournament, as well as leading us to the final of the SCC 6s. He embodies the Tornado spirit and will be sorely missed, not only for his skills on the pitch but also his German – Korean 'humour', that will be hard, if not impossible to replicate. Go well in Japan Joosie
In other goodbyes the ladies 1s said goodbye to thier top 3 finish being pipped at the post finishing the competition with a loss to SRC in a self declared grand final. Although just shy of thier goals it was definitely a much improved season for the ladies who owe an awful lot to the clever, committed and positive guidance from coach, Sally Bell. The ladies are very grateful for your time and efforts throughout the season and would like to publicly thankyou for your dedication to the game. Of course we also need to thank our #1 fan, manager, rehydrater (if thats a word) and all round voice, Jacque Shorrock. Tornados are also very proud and happy with the ladies 1s players and thier efforts and dedication to thier team. Captains, Sarah and Pip have done well to keep the ladies motivated throughout the season. WELL DONE LADIES ON ANOTHER TORNADOS
