Thanks to Brian Clarke and his team for a wonderful team tournament experience for ALL.

15 teams participated ( 6 +9 )

EMC sent 4 teams and 3 of the teams ended as winners in both sections. 4th team went back home full of experience and with team spirit.

Cheers for this wonderful team tournament again
