Stick apart
Sea-Bass’s new stick couldn’t handle the preassure at today’s training and broke.

Södermalm AGM and Bowling Championships
Saturday saw both work and pleasure. The AGM was a wrap-up in less than an hour, and under his firm leadership, Ivan “Baby Doc” Rexed, reshuffled the club board but managed to stay as President. Sean “Hardman” Hargreaves, who has been described as a rising star in the organization was elected VP, and John “Snooze” Murphy, who was moved next to tears when being told, took on the position as Secretary.
Henrik “Hanky” Engervall was busy elsewhere for the day, but sent a message loud and clear about was is to be expected from his term as Treasurer – “the negative result (-2500kr) is a disgrace, and will not be repeated, not on my watch anyway!” (The full financial report is available in the AGM minutes, free for any member to read. Just send the club an email).

Söder Chess results leaked!
Shocking details regarding the Södermalm chess competition have been made public through Wikileaks. Wikileaks’ founder Julian Assange was unavailable for comment, but this latest release is believed to be consistent with the company’s mission statement – providing free public access to previously restricted material.
A round-robin mini-tournament saw Joel and Brissles selected as pool A’s semifinalists, with Lars and Perezmo the best from pool B. Australian cricket captain Ricky Ponting viewed proceedings from the VIP box, and said it made a nice change to watch a sporting contest in which both participants had similar ability levels: “even when Lars and Perezmo fell behind, they were always still in the game. They didn’t stand around for days hoping it would rain so they could call the match a draw.” Despite this tenacity, both lost. As a result, Joel and Brissles were left to face off in their second consecutive chess final.
Jordo HarPOONed in Söder final
Last night (11-11-2010) saw The Club take the field agall leaving rack’ems alone and despondent, with the green 14 ball, and most shatteringly, out of the tournament. Many on lookers were saying Rack’ems had his mind elsewhere on the night, more likely to the baby he and his wife are expecting in 3 weeks time

Söder book ticket to footy trip!
Saturday 11th of september at Bromma Sportfältet played host to the preliminary final of the Stockholm Australian Football League.
Södermalm Blues vs Bromma Vikings was the match up in this do or die final, where the winner earned a spot to meet Solna in the Grand Final. In the three previous encounters during the season between these two teams it had been the mighty soldiers of Söder who had been convincing winners on all occassions, and so, the boys were quietly confident of earning the spot to meet Solna in the GF.
Fingerlicking good
In near perfect conditions Söder faced a combined effort from Bromma and Årsta in the last round before the finals.
Söder looked very solid in the 1st quarter. Kicks and handballs that were hitting the target combined with good exploitation of open space with quick leads. The ball went straight from kick out up the corridor and into the forwards time and time again. It was like watching a replay. The star players in Bromma were held back by Söder’s midfield and back line. 4 goals nothing to Söder at the first break.
A Blue day for Årsta
On a fantastic Day for footy, it was the 2 southern teams of Stockholm going head to head!
Last time they met was 2 week ago; where Årsta came out victors in their first ever win over the Södermalm Blues. This time the blue baggers were fresher and better prepared for the Swans.
