Last weekend, we competed at the Bernese Ladies Cup. After traveling on thursday, we started with a one-hour training session before checking into our hotel. Later, we returned to the arena to have dinner and prepare for our first game. At 8:00 PM, we faced Team Mariani from Italy and kicked off the tournament with a solid win.
Friday was an intense day with three back to back matches. Despite some ups and downs, we managed to win all three games. With a total of four victories, we secured our spot in the playoffs early.
On Saturday, we began with our final group game. Unfortunately, we made too many mistakes and suffered a loss. However, we came back stronger in the evening during the quarterfinals against Team Wrana. Stealing four rocks in the second end gave us an early and comfortable lead, and we wrapped up the game after seven ends with a win.
Sunday morning saw us in the semifinals against Team Henderson from Scotland. A strong performance in the third end, where we scored five stones, gave us a clear advantage. We held onto this lead and closed the game after six ends.
In the final, we faced Team Schwaller. It was a defensively focused and tight game that remained exciting until the very end. Ultimately, we secured a narrow victory to claim the tournament title!
A huge thank you goes out to everyone who supported us on-site. Now, we’re gearing up for a week of intense training to prepare for the Swiss Championships in Bern. We’re looking forward to having lots of fans and exciting games – come by and cheer us on!
