This post is from 'Sid the trainer'. Ill do a 'Sid the promoter' response shortly.
All my girls did me proud. My novice Becky lost the decission but it was such a close fight and could have gone either way. She faught to the best of her abilities and made me very proud.
Julie Elliott was a surprise for the Keddles team - I think they thought Rebecka was in for an easy win? For a lot of the fight, Julie looked the stronger fighter and several times had Rebecka backed up with nothing in response. Julie just gets better with each fight and she loves it. Although she lost the decission, I rekon her ranking may well increase (Dan/Richard?).
Ruth Davies won (all three rounds) and impressed me enough for me to start looking for 'heads' for her. Girls in the 54kg range watch out!
Christi Campbell faught well for a draw. Me and her opponant Sally McCarthy's trainer Lorne Castle found a minute after the fight to congratulate each other on our juniors. I think theirs was the fight of the night in terms of range of techniques, agression, fitness and above all - heart! Amazing! Either of these girls can take it all the way if they can keep to the sport through their school years.
So, though we (Saints)had 1 win, 1 draw and two losses, the figures dont tell the whole story and I want to tell Becky, Ruth, Julie and Christi that they all did our club proud. Thanks :-)
