Thanks again to all that made the trip, to Navy Pier for hosting us, and to our sponsors: Fancy Footworks, ProKicker Footbags, The Store til 4, Communications Direct, and Chicago Scenic Studios, who once again provided the most bad ass labor crew and bleacher set-up ever seen at a footbag event. Oh, and one more time for Zeke and Tommy- you guys rock!

Post Green Cup Blues

The Green Cup will now have the names of 6 different teams etched on it

It was quite a weekend and now another epic Green Cup is history.  Some quick results.  I hope to post more about the weekend later.

Emmanuel and PT Lovern (Choas #3) took game one of the Green Cup final 15-12.  JF Lemieux and Ben Rochon took game 2 15-12.  At 3-0 (JF and Ben) in game 3 and after using up all their time-outs PT Lovern and Emmanuel had to scratch out due Emmanuel’s cramps.  It’s really too bad because the players were putting on a defensive clinic and the match was on it’s way to meeting expectations set by last years final.

Alexis Deschenes/Francios Pelletier won the bronze over Yves Archambault and Luc Legault in straight sets.

The highlights of finals day was the semi-final between Lus/Yves and Emmanuel/PT which went the distance with many epic exchanges.

The Singles championship is JF Lemieux’s over Greg Lima in straight sets.  The mixed title goes to PT Lovern/Jody Welch over JF Lemieux/Lisa Monti Vu in straight sets.
