WrecK Tournament

When Friday 21 August 2009 opened with dark skies, torrential rain and localised flooding, it didn't look like promising start for the Eagles' first tournament. Reassurances from the organiser of the Bristol WrecK that the pitches were well drained was not the promise of blue skies and sunshine that we were hoping for. Having arrived at the venue later in the day and marked out an area for our village at the "quiet" end of the campsite, the process of tent erection left us in need of a drink and sustenance in preparation for what lay ahead. The Eagle kite was erected and flew high in the sky.
