Urban Boule Power Play

Date: 28/4/12
Location: Lloyd George Avenue, Cardiff  Bay
Weather: Night wind.
Extreme Rating: ****
Dangers & Annoyances: Traffic. People of the night. Missing our lift.
Result: 1st Wort 2nd Moss

Match Report: On an incredibly windy night Wort took on Moss in a pioneering Urban Boule showdown. Playing next to a busy road with the clock approaching midnight, the game was illuminated by street light.  With no grass in sight, the boule cracked and rolled along the concrete. The weather was atrocious and the terrain hard to gauge. In a short power play, Wort walked away victorious leaving Moss floundering in the wind.
