Unicycle Hockey mini-meet in Sydney - April 20th

As preparation for Unicon 14 (see below), Sydney Unicycle Hockey and Canberra riders are planning to get together for a day of hockey on April 20th.

The proposed plan is to meet at 11.30am (to give ACTURS riders time to come from Canberra) at the usual Hockey location in Newtown, Sydney. All riders welcome. See the Sydney Unicycle Hockey page or contact chickenloaf_au [at] yahoo [dot] com to confirm details, or just turn up for hockey as usual!

Australia wins in Asian Pacific Unicycle Hockey Convention!

What a fantastic competition! If you haven't heard by now, Australia took out the inaugural Asia Pacific Unicycle Hockey Convention in Singapore in November. Team players (in alphabetical order) Cris B, Ashley Curtis (Captain), Ty P, Matt P and Nic V were outstanding in tough conditions - 33 degrees and 90% humidity, playing with no reserve team members (but exceptional support from their single person cheer squad and blow up mascot). The competition was friendly but fiercely competitive and there's no doubt that Australia dominated:

• Australia vs Hong Kong 1 - 0

• Australia vs Singapore 10 - 0

• Australia vs Singapore (under 21s) 5 - 1

• Australia vs South Korea 3 – 2

Positions second to fourth were determined on goal difference, with all of the other teams winning two and losing two games. Hong Kong finished second, South Korea third, Singapore fourth and Singapore (under 21s) finished fifth.

UniNats 2007 - totally rad!

How good was UniNats 2007? Well, feedback from cyberspace rated Uninats as varyingly: "rad" "wicked sick" "mint" "awesome" and "grouse" - so we're very happy about that and hope that you all enjoyed yourselves!

For those keeping stats, we had 90 registered riders and another 50 or so non-riders, which is just mint.

The official results are now available on the Uninats results page - you'll need the password 'uninats2007' to access this page (to keep peoples personal details out of search engines).

The collection of photo and video links is also growing - we have more than 300 photos linked in different albums, half a dozen video links of Uninats action, and the place-winning videos from the video competition. Check out all the updates at the photo and videos page.

You can submit own photos and links to the page, and there will also be prizes for the best pictures and video.

So many thanks to those that volunteered before, during and after the event - especially the non-riders - you're awesome!

A big thanks to everyone who came along and participated - it was great fun and we can't wait to watch the next one!
