Broken arm?

Avarta advances

Sunday the local soccer team ‘Avarta’ secured advancement to Division 2 after winning the game against Birkeroed. The advancement is secured with four games left of the season.
They could have secured advancement Wednesday but the game ended with a tie game which was not enough. I spent two hours on the side line waiting for [...]

Covering the Cup Final

Around Monday last week I received a phone call.

Without much hesitation I replied with a “Yes of course!”
The Cup Final is a nation wide soccer tournament where lower tier teams compete with the top division teams. It’s [...]

Last chance

So the Mighty Bulls lost game 4 and are now down 3-1. I guess everything’s on the line Friday or the season will end way too soon. Here’s a gallery of photos from last night’s game.

Down by one

So three games of the first round of the playoffs is in the bag. Roedovre Mighty Bulls is down 2-1, after getting the first win Sunday. Tonight game 4 is on and I’ll be traveling to Frederikshavn to cover the game. Hopefully Roedovre will take game 4 to equal the standings instead of being down [...]
