First day of Dutch Indoor Competition

On Sunday November 26, PANIC played its first day of indoor competition. For most of the players, it was the first day of indoor ever. Great fun and a great learning experience! Unfortunately, we lost 2 of our players in the first 2 games due to injuries. We hope to see Edo and Johannes back in the game soon! But we found a new talent in Marc who was invited on the spot to replace our injured team mates - not a bad start!

The day started against the well prepared Crunch 4. They played a smooth, connected game, while PANICers were still getting used to playing together. Result: A great defeat for PANIC. For the next game, however, against Gronical Dizziness 5, PANIC was warm and playing as a team. This was a tight game, with both teams fighting hard until the end - and finishing with equal points! YES!!! In the third game, the sporty kids of Vellesan Speedy's 3, gave PANIC a tough game and carried home the victory. PANIC had lost a bit of focus, which was brought back in the 4th game against WAF 3. Again a very tight and fun game, also ending with a draw. In the last game, PANIC was a bit tired, as opposed to the Vellesan Speedy's 2 who fought until the end and won by one point.

All in all it was a great day. Now we know our weaker sides and what to work on for the next two weeks. And we know our strength in the PANIC spirit: Dooooon't PANIC!!!
