One of the most anticipated games each season happened over 2 sunny weekends this October. This year’s Mixed Nationals featured both divisions - Division 2 on 26 and 27 October, and Division 1, just 2 weeks later.
Division 2 of Mixed Nationals brought together 12 teams bidding for a spot at playoffs in 2025. WIth big opportunities at stake, teams from Alliance, Chuckies, Disc Knights, Disctractros, Fu Fighters, Pandamonium, Rascals, Thirsty Camels, and Oasis, took little of a break after concluding Genders and for some, Beach Nationals, to prepare for this heated event.
Day 1 started off strong as teams met their match playing under the hot sun and on astroturf. While some teams had a smooth start to their wins, others had a tight match-up against their opponent. Within their respective brackets, Chuckies Hurricane sailed to wins of 11-7 against Thirsty Camels, and so did Little Rascals against Distractors B of 11-2. On the other hand, Discknights Sabre (DIscknights) and Twosty Camels (Thirsty Camels) fought neck and neck, closing with a tight score line of 8-6, similar to teams like Oasis and Pandamonium with a slim 7-9.
For most, the windy setting was a good chance to practise their zone offence and test their players’ throws. The hot weather further added to the intensity and put the players’ stamina to the test - both athleticism and sportsmanship. It was great to see the true value of the sport shine through as spirits were kept high amidst the challenging games!
Following the results from Day 1, teams headed to their respective fields on Day 2 for the bottom and top 6 placements respectively. DiscKnights Shield, Chuckies Hurricane, Little Rascals, and Alliance were leading in their respective brackets, hoping to ride off their wins going into Day 2’s matches.
Day 2’s matches was a chance for the winning teams to maintain their lead, while amping up the intensity for teams to gain a spot in the quarter finals. Little Rascals stood their ground against FuFus & Friends with an 11-7 win, bringing them against Thirsty Camels in the semis. What about the other semi-final? Chuckies Hurricane and Alliance put up a good fight that ended with the latter taking a 2 point lead.
Putting up a great show to end of the season was Little Rascals, Thirsty Camels, Chuckies Hurricane, and Alliance - now competing for the top 4 placements. With podium on the line, spectators of Division 2 gathered to witness Little Rascals take home victory with a 10-5 win against Alliance, and Chuckies Hurricane’s 3rd place against Thirsty Camels with an incredible 14-7 lead.
All teams competing this year put up a great fight, and displayed even greater sportsmanship. For some, this Division 2 was a good refresher - meeting with past rivals, and challenging for a spot at playoffs. For others, this tournament was a learning journey of testing new strategies. Congratulations to the winning teams who achieved podium, especially Little Rascals and Alliance who will be joining next year’s play-offs for a second chance at Mixed Nationals Division 1 2025. Not forgetting our Spirit Champions, congratulations to Distractors B for giving it your all and being a great opponent to your rivals.
