In windy Malaga we only got to play two games before the tournament was cancelled and games transferred to be played in Germany. Helsinki Cyclone proved to have been on the right track during the winter season, as the players tolerated the heat and were able to play on normal performance levels.

Returning From Riga
Our Malaga Practise tourament was extremely useful, we got 19 points on the field with etremely good opponents, two SPL teams (Instinct and Sigur) and one CPL team (Chilli Peppers). We are satisfied with our games, even though we didn’t make the cut into the finals. A quick summary of the games:
Malaga! Can’t wait..!
And so the season rolls in. This is the official anticipation news of the up-and-coming Millennium season and its premier on the Malaga Beach on the 24th through the 26th of April.
That means a WEEK! The winter must be over – and it was long, yet over truly fast.
Here’s for a good season starter!
Our legione: Sam, Raffe, Janne, Sibban, Kimi, Jii
Beyond Sweat
A few weeks ago Cyclone had a nice chill-out weekend over at my place watching the PSP Phoenix webcast and munching through a pile of burritos. Having a big part of the guys over and watching the ‘cast was a good way to spend a weekend out of harms’ way but it also had a more profound meaning in revealing some aspects of training that I had not considered in such depths. Hearing Matt Marshall mention game momentum and mental tenacity time and time again really resonated with me, and a thought stuck to the back of my head. How can we as individuals and as a team achieve the proper mentality to be able to turn games around?
Millennium Malaga warmup.
Our friends Instinct Gemoss Liepaja from Latvia are putting up an event in Riga this comming weekend so we will also be heading down south across the boarder.
The event will be played with Malaga layout so this will be a good warmup for us also. Its gona be our first chanse to play outside this year and it will be intersting to see how the field plays out. First few games will for sure be tough before we get our game going as we havent had any possibility to train inside this whole winter. It’s sure gona be fun to have the chanse to do some real balling!
