IUFT Kicks off with a bang


Canada takes possession of the ball early in Game1 against Australia

Yulia sings before the first game.

IUFT football now rules Centennial Park in Etobicoke. Day one on Saturday saw Canada A defeat Australia 4-1. Granted, the Aussies were quite jetlagged, having flown in the previous day. And its winter down under right now so, one can forgive their opening performance. The Aussie goalie noticably improved in the second half, making several spectacular saves one after the other as Canada A hammered him repeatedly.

The Canadians looked pretty fast on their feet. We'll have to see how they do against a well rested opponent. Team USA also won their opening match on Sunday, so perhaps we are heading for a North American final on Saturday August 20? Come out and see for yourself.

The audience watches Canada
attack the Australian net.



Anyway, you can see photos here on our facebook page: IUFT Toronto 2011.
UCU volunteers take a break
to watch the game.
