The Saskatoon Gophers sent a team to compete at the Canadian National Canoe Polo Championship in Edmonton. While the event was smaller than originally anticipated and our Gophers had to face tough competition in the only adult open division, the team enjoyed to play some awesome polo and meet with friends. After a tough first day without wins, the Gophers came together and won their final round-robin game against Wapiti. After round-robin, the Gophers barely lost a three-way comparison to play for third place and was facing VIKP to compete for place five instead. During an intense game, the Gophers were able to dominate over VIKP and earned Fifth place. We are happy that Scott joined our squat for the weekend and welcome Alicia as Saskatoon Gopher. After playing polo for less than half a year, she committed to come out for the tournament and embraced the experience, finishing strong with her first competition goal against VIKP.
