We had a total of 19 Teams, 61 Games (Every team played on all 4 days and played at least 6 games during the weekend). We also had two exhibition women's division games. One between Mexico and Great Britain  August 1st (To help sort out timing of the games and get the scoring table up to speed on IWBF) and another on August 4th full team Germany vs. full team Canada.

We would like to thank our game officials David Bell USA, Haywood Hill USA, Frances Kremarik Canada, Trevor Kerr Canada, Jeff Van Eenoo Canada, Victor Reyes Mexico, Max Kindervater Germany, Bob Lloyd Great Britain, Bob Bhania Great Britain and Christofer Behre Sweden. Each worked 3 or 4 games on all four days of the Challenge with a total of 13 or 14 games each.

We played Spitfire Challenge rules in the 12 team Open Conference games. The games were completed in 90 minutes.

In the Women’s conference, in order to get all the games in within the time we had at the gym we  shortened the warm up time to 10 minutes, half time to 10 minutes and 1 minute between periods. This  allowed 100 minutes per game

I want to thank Remington Homes, Coloplast, Bulova Watches, RGK wheelchairs, Home Hardware, Henkel Canada, Kalyn Gifts, Kenda tires, RGK North America - Reg Mc Clellan and Chantal Benoit for their financial & product support.

To all the volunteers, bus drivers, game officials, teams helping at the score tables.

Thank you so much for attending the Spitfire Challenge and helping out. No event this size can be organized without people like you. We are in your gratitude.

Thanks for coming, 

Michael C. Bryce
