So I recently participated in New Zealand Ultimate Nationals. This was my second foreign national championship and I thought I would compare it to my previous one.
Denmark/ New Zealand
Lame 2 day 3 game format/ Full Tournament
Played with Established Club/ Created my own team with friends
Team made up of myself, Shep and a bunch of Danes/ Myself, Shep, Pjay, Ben, Scooter, and six kiwis.
Practiced regularly for a couple months/ Pick up team with no practices
Dominated the tournament, won finals 17-5 / Good Competition, Close Games
Great Weather/ Okay but Windy
Amazing Dinner Saturday Night/ Average Party Saturday Night
A few people I knew/ Knew many people, many of my closest friends in the country
Had to borrow and give back my jersey/ Got sweet free jerseys due to plumbing company sponsorship (weird, I know)
Won the tournament in a blowout/ Won the tournament in a barn burner.
Cool, but mostly in that I got to say I was a Danish National Championship/ One of my best experiences in New Zealand.
