Sheep Station Classic
Blue Mountains Ultimate took part in a friendly tournament at Orange on 18/11/23, facing Dubbo Meerkats and Orange Snowflakes. We broke our team in half to have 2 teams, So that everyone could have the maximum amount of time on the field. We had an early setback as Owen and Millie; two of our star players pulled out. so we had to recruit a few others at Orange.
​
In the first match Blue Mountains Gunnedoo versed Blue Mountains Wimlah. Gunnedoo came out on top due to the shake-up from the 2 absent players.
​
Gunnedoo was very competitive with Dubbo and Orange, the team was leading for awhile in both games but ended with a loss in two nail-biting games, coming down to the final point of each game. Losing 9-8 and 8-7 respectively.
​
Wimlah drew with Dubbo 6-6 and lost to Orange 9-6
​
Everyone that came had a great time and a big thanks to all our players especially those who had they're first experience in a more competitive environment, The people who represented Blue Mountains Ultimate included: Wally, Elliot, Nathan, Amir, Kaleb, Mac, Rick, Vicky, Tanith, Sophie, Harriet, Prerna, Kat and Tamara.
