Family affair in Western Sydney

Four in for this month's WASPA tournament and it was a family affair with recent recruits, Vince and Ray bringing along their dad, Louis. Louis is the owner of possibly the finest subbuteo stadium in Australia and played his first game in 1961!
In the first games, Vince took Adrian all the way, using his 'keeper brilliantly and setting up the odd chance for himself before settling for 0-0. Meanwhile, Ray put two past his dad. In the second round, Louis showed his experience, scoring and then threatening to do a nude run in celebration against Vince. In the end he settled for taking off his jacket. Meanwhile, Ray bore the brunt of Adrian's earlier goalscoring frustrations and conceded 3 unanswered. With all 4 players in with a mathematical chance going into the final game, Ray and Vince cancelled each other out, though Vince's goal was shrouded in controversy. This meant that Adrian's win over Louis gave him the honours for the evening.
The spring league begins next month meaning club nights at Good Games Bella Vista will now be devoted to those games. However, the WASPAs keep coming with the september cup next month, Australia's longest running (uninterrupted) tournament, devoted to all things subbuteo branded. look out for details soon.
