Our sportive
trip to India is already behind us. We fought our self to a reasonable 6th
place at the 2013 Asian Championships.
Just like in
the previous edition of the Championship I was moved by the fighting spirit of
the Iranian ladies team. We had to fight back strongly to defend our try line.
In addition the
Iranian ladies team plays with long sleeves, long legs and Hijab, which makes
it noteworthy more difficult to play in 32°C.
We got
invited and agreed to go to Iran next spring to participate in a tournament. I
am already looking forward to see those lovely girls back in Iran, within a
couple of months to play our very first game in long sleeves and Hijab!
There was no
time for sightseeing and the only taste of India was during a short walk. A
busy road all of a sudden changed into a rural scenery, with horses carrying
lambs followed by a herd of sheep.
