The Playoffs - 3rd Round
The next round of the playoffs will take place this Sunday, December 6th at 4pm (unless the captains agree on a different start time).
Championship A has become a straight fight between the top 8 seeds although Friend's and Tomato gave both Potato and Wonky Triangles a few scares on Wednesday night. FUTA pushed Angry Birds all the way before the succumbing 8-7 in a terrific match. In Championship B Sweet Life smoothly made their way past Ballistics and Woodstock beat Troyjans in heartbreaking and controversial fashion. Championship B is now at the semi final stage and all 4 teams will compete in the next two rounds.
The fixtures are as follows:
Championship A
Dolce Vita Angry Birds @ Bull & Barrel Rising Stars
3 Alley Seoul Misfits @ Bulldog Estyle
Sin Bin Potato @ Shenanigans Boomtown Rats
Scrooge Pub Wonky Triangles @ Scrooge Pub Phoenix
Championship B
Woodstock Al Korea @ Bulldog Miss. Q
Dolce Vita Sweet Life @ Phillies Pheasants
There is a clash at Bulldog so captains will have to make arrangements about alternative start times. The very best of luck to all.
