Feeling left out ?

Don't. Join the party.
The party continues this weekend.

Two great matches lined-up on both the days.

Four teams will play their opening matches this Saturday.
Every team wants to open their account on a positive note.
Be there @ MG Science College ground , 7 AM when the excitement unfolds.

For Socrates, they have to win their match this Sunday to stay in competition.
For Archimedes, they will need their "Eureka" moment on Sunday to have their hopes going.

Cheer for your team. Vote for your team. Play for your team. Win for your team.

Shock and Awe !

Pythagoreans are going crazy. Somebody stop them :-).
3200 friggin' votes to them in the Mega Poll of who will win the eVolleympics 2007 and still going strong !!!!
It was shock and awe ! Prompts me to go ahead and vote 200 times for Copernicus.

They have shown admirable enthusiasm on the Poll.
But the important question is can they be stopped on field ? Watch out for the match on Saturday.

Last heard, teams are making lots of strategies everywhere. This time all the teams are evenly poised so it is going to be a close call for most of the matches.

Our team Copernicus won well last Sunday and we will go with more confidence for our next match.

I am seeing many comments and I agree with Natwar that instead of hoping that the other teams will make mistakes, you will have to create opportunities for making winning shots.

Ahmedabad summer will play a significant role especially for matches held later in the day.

The team with players that can play well in all the positions will be the team that may just be crowned the Champions on 26th May.

Fun on the Ground

It was just not about game, set and match. Watch the video below to know what I mean.
The Archimedian Sumit proves that indeed the earth is round and it rotates. He uses the Volleyball to demonstrate his theory.

Also, listen to the audio, it has conversation of national importance. Namely, the Abhi-ash wedding. Such fun.
If you are heart-broken because of the wedding, well, better luck next time.
