VU @ AUG - DAY 1 WRAP

AUG 2011 opened in spectacular fashion at Dreamworld on Sunday night in the midst of Bag Raiders and a haze of lazar light. The action was perfectly positioned below the Dreamworld ride known as, “The Claw”…apt given the Vulture’s grip on the game in Monday’s action.

The VU Vultures recorded excellent results right across Day 1. AFL men started early with a brutal full length game fronting up against Curtin’s heavies, some of whom could have filled in the front row for the Wallabies. VU too strong for their Western counterparts on this occasion and the team continued to be undefeated for the day. Similarly AFL women flexed their talons today and barely had their feathers ruffled by the opposition in either game winning the second by a mighty 214 to nil.

The great results didn’t end with football with Basketball men finishing the day undefeated, Hockey women notching up a win in their only game and wins in Netball women and mixed, Ultimate mixed and Beach Volleyball women and mixed.

Well done to all competitors for the fine Day 1 performances. Enjoy the relaxation that will come with tonight’s op-shop formal function and we look forward to seeing you all back in the arena bright and early for another full day of action on Day 2.
