GREG BONDERUD FAREWELL FLOOR HOCKEY TOURNAMENT | october 2008

Tournament champions: TEAM VCS
Tournament MVP: AARON GYSBERS

The original Battle of the Balls tournament was organized as a farewell to Greg Bonderud.  Of course, Greg never left, which in retrospect, bases the entire thing on a lie.  Awesome. 

The not-so-aptly-named Greg Bonderud Farewell Floor Hockey Tournament took place in a hole-in-the-wall East Van community centre and featured four teams -- District 5, Team VCS, the Silverwings and Team Hybrid.

After breezing through the round-robin, District 5 took a swan dive into some fecal matter and lost to the fourth-ranked Silverwings in the semifinal.  Team VCS, meanwhile, improved with every game, bouncing back from a tournament-opening 7-2 loss to beat the Silverwings 5-3 in the final.

Nominated tournament MVP, Aaron Gysbers took home the Golden Bonnaroo Keg.  I'm told victory was delicious and only slightly intoxicating.
