Yesterday, all our three Vikings teams were in action and all teams played really well.

Vikings HC Norse vs Vic Uni HC Lions 31:8
The Norse, faced the Lions, a Vic Uni development team that improved a lot over the last few weeks. Though, the Norse were still the big favourites in that matchup.
There was never a moment during the game the win was in question, but there were also a few things the Norse will need to work on to be able to be further successful.

Women Competition
Vikings HC vs Vic Uni HC Ravens 18:23
The Vikings women had a tough game versus the Ravens. Especially the Raven’s excellent goalkeeper challenged the Vikings players throughout the game and was instrumental for the Raven’s win. On the other side, the Vikings players are showing more and more their team play and building great chemistry amongst each other. A special mentioning here to Michaela, the Vikings goalkeeper, who showed great reflexes and helped the team immensely to stay close and keep the winning chance real.
