Goalball duo star in Europe

TWO players from the Rochdale Goalball Club are back home from an international 
tournament in Holland.

Emma Jones, from Middleton, and Daffyd Williams had been invited to join a 
representative squad for an annual tournament held in Breda.

The weekend "marathon" was for both club and European national teams.

The squad they were in consisted of players from Rochdale, Leeds and London.

The highlight was a draw against the Slovenian national team.

Emma and Daffyd were also part of the Rochdale squad which competed in the 
latest BBS goalball experienced tournament in Lutterworth, near Leicester, on 
Saturday.

This was the squad's first outing of the season, but despite their shortage of 
match practice they put in some quality performances to finish in sixth place.

The tournament was won by West Midlands.
