Plenty of all day action and perfect weather for this years Exmouth Beach 4’s tournament, blue sky, high 20’s temperature (or was that low 30’s), no wind and too hot hot to walk on sand.
Unfortunately a much smaller event this year due to sand erosion on the beach but thanks to some sand dune bashing by the local council we were able to hold the event while the tide was out.
Also making it’s first outing since the Men’s Olympic Gold Medal match at Horse Guards last August, the Olympic beach centre court net and associated banners, a photo opportunity for all.
This years women’s title went to the local Exmouth Beach VC team of Fat Bottomed Girls, beating Four Non Blonds from Bristol in the final.
In the men’s event, it was Sandy Balls from Bristol taking this years title over UVGOT2BJOKING
In the Mixed event, Flip Flop Ninjas from Plymouth came out top, beating Dirty Sets to the title.
See you all for the Exmouth Beach Pairs Open 11th August.
