Massive thanks to Claire and all at Blues for all their hard work over the weekend. The food, and in particular the cakes, was awesome.

Congrats to all the teams who came out with silverware. I might have recovered in time for next year.

Epic weekend, thanks to Claire and Blues from the whole team here in the vatican city, we can't wait for next year already.

Photos uploading to my website as I type. A few main games plus some others (including Blues v UKL, G&J v London, Sabres v Vatican?, Pompey v ? and some dude waving an Irish flag).

There's also a classic sequence of Gin &Juice #4 (black and yellow helmet) scoring a quickstick against London (despite Ash's heroic effort...). I'm turning that into one long photo showing the sequence. That will go up when it's finished. Let me know if you're out there and interested.

As usual, the photos posted are pretty much all pin sharp but I have some more that either aren't quite sharp or else aren't exciting (portrait type stuff). If you were in a game that's posted then do ask me and I may have something. Also as usual the photos on the website haven't been fully optimised but any sales will be.

I also have a couple of non-lax photos. Two puppies play fighting and a little boy called Oliver in a Blues hoodie playing football with Grandad while Daddy played lacrosse. If owner and Daddy respctively want a copy of those, just let me know - no charge for them.

Finally, as with all lax sales until the Worlds, enter the code 'lax' to get 33% off. All profits go to the Welsh team.


Long post for a few photos...

Though that's UK Lacrosse, it is Sam Dunwoodie doing the dirty. Anyone is free to join Hillcroft and be a part of amazing goal sequences like those...

Anyone got photos of the final?

TopJLax found time to sit down with Claire to find out about what's involved running a tournament like Bluesfest - find the interview here:

Is there any indication where the local TV crew might show any of their recording?

I need a player's permission to enter a photo of him in a competition. Anybody know who this is?

I suggest you contact UK Lacrosse, they should know who played for them.
