German Embassy Cup

Some of our VDAJ players joined the German Embassy Cup. Despite some outstanding play VDAJ did not win any prizes, next year we’ll be there again.

VDAJ!

…in action

VDAJ fan!

Stiff competition…

Smiles of confidence…

…but alas! no prizes this year. Next year we’ll be back!

July 8th Bagus-ball

Another Vitafeet League night was held on Tuesday 7/8/08 in Roppongi’s Bagus game hall.

It was the first night away from the home field at VDAJ.  Our initial venue no-longer had a table so everyone was diverted to Roppongi thanks to some quick Ota-style sleuthing. Games began around 7:30 with many close final scores, partly due to the foreign table.  VDAJ was finally beaten by the Steelcase team lead by Aoyama-san in a back and forth grudge match (final:5-4).  And a newcomer, the Reuters team took claim to the evening’s bragging rights and VDAJ-wine prize.

We thank all the participants that made it to the night’s games despite the last minute location change.
