Colley 5-aside was a touch tournament held in Glenelg, Adelaide, on the 22nd Of February 2009. It is a tournament where there are only 5 on a field for each team, this changes set moves and defnensive plays and provides a whole new game. The Touch UM team left bright and early the morning of Saturday the 21st for the lengthy eight hour drive to Glenelg. We all arrived safely thanks to plenty of humourous car trip games including 20 questions (not wise to play with clarkie that kid knows way to many animals) and car cricket. The saturday night was a quiet one, but a quiet night for Touch UM always includes rowdy behaviours from certain athletes ie Finlay Batts.
The sun rose and the tournament day had come, we all began to get dressed into our finely tuned uniforms for the day. The A-team consisting of 3 girls and Clarkie wearing ladies floral shorts aswel as the rest of the boys wearing their own designer PJ shorts and the new and improved Touch UM tops. The B-team outshone most by wearing personelly tye-dyed singlets (cheers Loz) and their very own favourite PJ shorts, most memorable BB's short and tight, tickle me elmo shorts that seemed to be oh so close to coming off numerous times in the day, on and off the field.
The day went on and the A-team were smashing all oponents, while the B-team were just getting comfortable with being around BB in those shorts. The try's were coming left, right and centre, literally, girls were dominating the wings and very rarely dropping a Timmy G bullet pass and even in the middles Finlay would complete his token pirouette and dish the ball off to a girl to score another try, thank god liz (Jets) was there!
The day rolled on and the Adelaide teams were becoming more and more aware of the crazy dressed, yet talented Melbourne teams. Both A- and B-teams went on to win their divisons and Touch UM went on their merry way pocketing $1,000 prize money. The Adelaide teams didn't know what had hit them, not to mention one of Touch UM's fastest girls Michelle (Skittles) won the dash for cash, to then have it wrongly taken from her in the re-run, I guess Adelaide couldn't hand everything to Melbourne teams that day.
All in all this tournament was definatley a highlight for me being a relatively new memebr of Touch UM. Never once was someone not smiling, laughing or having fun, even on the eight hour drive home at 5 am!
Watch out Adelaidians....we'll be back next year in even crazier outfits!
