Hello Israeli Ultimate Fans.
It's the summer tournament season, so I'm back to updating frisbee.co.il with the goings on of Israeli teams abroad.
Right now The Israeli Mixed National team is playing their way through the crowd in Amsterdam at Windmill Windup.
The tournament is set up as a Swiss Draw, so we won't be able to know too far in advance who Team Israel is going to play next. In this version of the Swiss Draw each team gets points based on point deferential. (win by 5 and you get 20 points, loose and you get 10) After each round the teams are re-ranked based on their points and then are paired up with a team they haven't yet played next to them in the updated rankings.
On top of that, the scoring system they are using at the tournament, leaguevine.com, crashed last night. It seems to be back now, and Team Israel's score from it's first game is listed as 12-10 over Rebel Ultimate, from Ireland. (They were probably quite distraught over Ireland's loss last night in the Euro, making them the first team eliminated) There are no stats breaking down the games like there were at EUC and EYUC last summer.
If I'm reading the schedule correctly, they should be finishing up their second game as I type. You can check out their results on their Leaguevine team page: https://ultistats.leaguevine.com/?#teams/19089
Lets hope they keep up their winning start!!
