Catherine and I arrive in Boras for the Championships
In the past 24 hours since we got back from Europe people are kindly asking me ‘How did you go Leigh (in the World Masters Water Polo Competition)?
I can give them the long answer and I can give them the short answer..
In short..
We finished 10th best in the World… the highest place Australian team there in our age group….
And we played a brilliant game against Calgary to finish the tournament with a 12-6 win..
I scored a couple of goals… helped several others score… and generally, everything we planned… happened.. It really was one of those magical games..
Or I can say….
‘The Russians finished first.. the Americans from Santa Barbara second.. the Spanish came third..
We played both the Russians and the Americans in the rounds.. and were beaten… But we did hold the Yanks close for a while..
The Bench of the Winning Russian Team
Here is a photo of the Russian team..
As you can see.. they were very big.. and most of them were ex-Olympians..
The great news is that we all learnt absolutely HEAPS about playing high standard, intensive water polo.. and we had a great time seeing and experiencing Sweden, Copenhagen, Finland and London ..
(I can’t believe how many blonde people there are in that part of the world..)
I also recorded on video a couple of Sales Champions in various retail and selling scenarios we came across on the way through too..
Will post the video online with lessons for you in the next week or so..
Now to get back into it and work with our clients plus get ready for the New Sales Science Seminar next Monday night in Perth..
Hope to see you there..
Register at www.bluerocketlive.com if you haven’t already..
Otherwise we will be doing a webinar version in the next month or so… plus get ready for us to run one on the East coast early next year.
PS: The next World Championships are in Italy in two years time.. So we all keep in shape for those games now..
Hope this answers the question for you..
For more information just write a comment and I’ll try and answer the question..
