Section UK played well but lost out to some experienced and better teams. We were hosted at a restaurant with a meal, where the restaurant manager brought out the Vodka in typical Polish hospitality. Day 3 was a rest day for us as we had been knocked out of the tournament but our hosts arranged for us to visit Warsaw in the morning before returning to the Finals sports hall. There we watched the men’s play offs, women’s final and men’s final, it was an exciting end to the football tournament. The men’s finalists were Bosnia V Bydgoszcz with Bydgoszcz winning 1-0 by scoring in the closing few seconds of extra time. The awards ceremony was the closure to the football tournament.
