Haven’t really had time to write up our defeats against Rouen this weekend, but I will eventually. Things have been a little tense around here lately as the 2-room apartment that we saw on Monday proved to be a studio with a loft in 2-room apartment clothing, but we’re unwinding at a friend’s house before the Challenge de France, which is not, as many have joked, keeping the students from overturning cars in Paris. It’s a four-day tournament for the French Championship that somehow has little to do with the playoffs in October for the… French Championship. What do I know? In any case, it’s usually in warm places like Toulouse or Montpelier, but this year it’s in Rouen and Bois-Guillaume, as they’re but a few minutes from each other and the nine team, round robin style tournament requires two fields. We’ve been working hard on the field all week, especially Sylvain, the club president, and it’s never looked better.

We play Thurs-Fri-Sat, and we’ll hope to pull a few games out. Tomorrow, I forget exactly who we play. Some team from just south of Paris, uh, the Wildcats, maybe? Lions? Either way, I heard they’ve had some recent managerial turnover, maybe we can exploit that somehow…
