Dear Ultimate friends,

Yes at last!... after last year's success we promised to organise a Xefina HAT tournament in 2009! And here it is: This year it will be on the holiday of Friday May 1st and Saturday May 2nd! The Sunday is open for some interesting and relaxing excursions in Mocambique... or just for some nice lullas/camarao and cerveja while looking at the ocean. Due to the tide that weekend we will organise a 5 on 5 multi-surface tournament, Friday we'll play on the beach of the island of Xefina and on Saturday we'll be playing at the fields of the American School (same teams and beach ultimate size fields).

The tourney is limited to 60 participants and we plan to have always 2 women/3 men in the field. Parties... yes there will be plenty... that goes without saying in Mozambique! One party will be in the old train station built in 1910 by Mr. Gustave Eiffel, a very inspiring venue.

If you want to be part of this year's great tournament send us an e-mail: sjoerd@mozultimate.com.

First come first serve!

Happy hucking,

Stef Stevens

PS There are numerous flights to Johannesburg (JNB). From JNB it is a one hour flight to Maputo (MPM) (5 flights a day South African and LAM (Linhas Aéreas de Moçambique)), you can also rent a car and drive in 6 hours to Maputo, Mozambique. Don’t forget to visit the Kruger Park on the way back and to swim with the dolphins, whale sharks and manta rays on the Mozambican beaches!

Last weekend saw the second edition of the beach tournament of Mozambique. On the tiny island of Xefina in the bay of Maputo, where 20 inhabitants watched amused at the invasion of mad discoteiros who took over the beach in front of their village. 6 teams with players from Mozambique, Swaziland, Lesotho, South Africa, Angola, Europe and North America quickly found their groove and proved to be pretty equal in strength.

The tournament was a great succes and we are sure that we are going to make this tourney an annual event.

Look out for next year's announcement and reserve your seat on the boat!
