TOURNAMENT I

As the swedish winter was getting colder five table hockey maniacs gathered for the first tournament of the year. Peter Henell, Jonas Ahlkvist and Jerry Jacobsson, who played in the championship last year, invited two "new" players; Lars Hagman and former world champion Per "the master" Jemth. The players played five times against each opponent and the outcome was a magnificent victory for Per; nineteen wins and one tie. First runner up was Jerry and second runner up was Jonas. Lars, finishing fourth, tied with Per in a breath taking game. In the final game between Jerry and Per, Jerry had a lead 5 to 3, but in the last 40 seconds Per scored 3 identical goals - assist from the left winger, in Gretzky position behind the net, to the center, which scored - and won the game with a smile on his face. All the players found it stimulating to play "the master" and in the future they will surely try to avoid doing the same mistakes. Peter who was a bit of a disappointment will surely take a vengeance, it is rumoured that he's practicing.
