English ELL in Berlin for the first time
20.9.2012
The second ELL tournament will be held in Berlin for the very first time. Spectators can watch the games at the Neuköln rink. Germany has a great potential to develop the boxlacrosse game and hopefully the ELL tournament will be a remarkable impuls for it.
This year rookie, Deutschland Adler team will welcome top European boxlacrosse players and hopes for support of local fans.
Tournament 1 finalists, Bosin Radotín ans Aitcom Pardubice will match in the group A. Radotín Wolves complete th trio. There were several changes in the team rosters. Wolves drafted Jakub Výmola from Bisons after great tactic and diplomatic performance from Wolves coach Jiří Pechar and Roman Čech from ELL Blue. Bisons won the toss deciding that English Alan Keeley who registered later in the course of the competition will play for them as in last season.
Wolves announced their „joker“ (an additional player who can be added to roster from the team initiative) Jiří Košťál, a remarkable offensive force.
Deutschland Adler will match ELL Blue and Old Dogs Plzeň in Group B. No additions were announced on the Adlers side, while ELL Blue manager Mirek Knotek introduced his „jokers“, Czech national team players Jakub Kos and Tomáš Žipaj. Old Dogs are bringing super experienced veteran Pavel Kraus.
Because of the technical complication game will not be available live from Berlin, but the records will appear at www.net-tv.cz very soon after the tournament.
