2009 National Women Team Championships

The 2009 National Women Team Championships in Saskatoon, Sask. was a very intensive, challenging and super satisfactory tournament. Saskatoon is a really nice town, very picturesque, but, super cold (-25)! Fortunately not as bad as expected as just two days earlier than our arrival was -44!

The organizers did an excellent job to make us feel welcomed as they gave us lots of attention and the event was very well planned.

Our BC team was seeded #5 as all of us were not ranked nationally: Rebecca Fouchard played #1 Alicia Haneine#2, Emilie Mackie #3, This fact gave us the chills as there were many new players and some of the already very good known ones.

BC started playing with seeded#2 Alberta and beat them 3-2 in very exhaustive close matches. (Rebecca: 3-0, Alicia 3-2, Emilie 1-3); Next was against seeded#1 Quebec which came loaded with all tough players (Rebecca 1-3, Alicia 0-3, Emilie 2-3).

Next matches were also difficult, especially against Manitoba which was very exhausting (Rebecca 0-3, Alicia 3-2, Emilie 3-0); vs Saskatchewan (Rebecca 3-0, Alicia 0-3, Emilie 3-2); vs Nova Scotia (Rebecca 3-0, Alicia 3-0, Emilie 3-0)

BC ended winning the Silver medal which was a surprise, taking in account that BC was seeded#5
