so did the indians turn up ?

Nobody's mentioned them.

Sadly the Indian team had their visas refused (I'm assuming Covid restrictions) I was really looking forward to meeting them but maybe next year.

Sunday in the hall

I have a lot of video as well which I'll eventually get up. If someone wants original video of themselves then I'll get it over to you. I'm thinking of making "Just the hits" because otherwise it will be a long video Cheesy

I didn't get as much video as I could have because we had the camera guy there and lots of other people were filming. I also wanted to spend time just slinging without worrying about the camera Cheesy

Before we started the competition proper (competitors on the other islands had to come later) we did some tennis ball slinging at a botanical garden; 2 rounds of 5 balls each. These scores weren't counted into the overall scores.

From Pep:
"PREVIEW TO THE WORLD CUP
RAFEL LOPEZ (LORCA) AND ANTONIA REYNES (SA POPULA)
WIN IN BIOTANIC IBIZA BIOTECHNOLOGICAL
BASSETTLE SHOOT - FONA - TIRO CON HONDA - SLINGING -
To warm up engines and before the World Cup shooting dispute with Honda, it took place at the Botanical Botanical Ibiza, a ball-mode thrown.
The results that occurred were as follows:
MEN:
1th) With 10 + 3 points Rafel Lopez
2th) With 10 + 2 points Diego Camuñas
3th) With 7 + 2 points Francesc Ribas
WOMEN:
1 a) With 7 + 1 points Antonia Reynes de Sa Pobla
2 a) With 6 + 1 Points Maria de Malaga
3 (a) With 5 + 1 Myriam points from Austria
Laia Prats with 2 points was the winner of the juvenile test.
Two groups of guided tours to the Botanico were held during the competition.
In the photo we see Antonia Reynes 1st ranked in women and Diego Camuñas (Sa Pobla) 2th ranked in men."

Automatic translation on Facebook needs some work but I think you can work it out. As you can see, Myriam was already doing well.

First (and because of rain only) time slinging rocks. The international group arrived late thanks to a trip to a museum and getting slightly lost so when we arrived we each had 1 (!!!) practice throw then it was straight into throwing rocks. Very difficult and none of use really got a chance to do our best. Nevertheless, it was still fun. Here are the results from Pep:

′′ WORLD CUP SHOOT WITH HONDA ′′ MATEU ROCK CAMES ′′
1 a) CHAMPIONSHIP JOURNADA IN THE MODALITY STONE AROUND IN HOLY EULALIA DEL RIO (IBIZA)
THE JASA IBIZA IN WOMEN CUP THE 3 PODIUMS
Good weather and lots of heat during this kick-off of the championship that was held behind the Santa Eulalia Football Camp and that the podiums were fairly shared, except in the women's category JASA Ibiza flake the top three places.
Men were released at 20 meters and 10 meters children and women, carrying out 2 rounds of 5 stones each,
I mean a total of 10 pitches.
These were the final results:
MEN:
1th) With 9 + 0 points Abel Alvarez (JASA Ibiza)
2th) With 8 + 1 Points Tomas Perez (Ciutat)
3th) With 7 + 1 Points Lluis Pons (Menorca)
WOMEN:
1 a) With 8 + 2 Thais Alvarez Points (JASA Ibiza)
2 a) With 6 + 2 Lali Mari Points (JASA Ibiza)
3 a) With 4 + 1 Points Maria Tur (JASA Ibiza)
CHILD:
1th) With 8 + 1 Points Biel Gomila (Sa Pobla)
2th) With 3 + 1 points Josep Gari (Llucmajor)
3th) With 2 + 0 points Alejandro Luque (Son Servera)
GIRLS:
1 a) With 6 + 1 Points Laia Prats (JASA Ibiza)
2 a) With 3 + 1 Mar Tomas Points (Llucmajor)
3 a) With 2 + 1 points Claudia Vargas (JASA Ibiza)"

Here are some videos of our practice rounds in St Josep before the start of the competition in Ibiza. This is just the hits to keep it short and sweet. Also, this video:

that I shot landscape. I was playing around to see what worked best for filming slinging. Enjoy!

It's so much fun and so great to be around other slingers.

On a beautiful plot with grass, next to the old church of Sant Carles in the municipality of Santa Eulalia, the second of the World Cup took place, this time it was competed in the Tennis Ball mode.
A lot of participation, which leads to that when it's finished out of the night. During the competition we have the presence of the Conseller d 'Esports d' Eivissa Sr. Salvador Losa and also in the award of prizes, the councilor of Sant Carles Sr. Juan Carlos Rosello.
The ball was thrown at 13 meters men and 10 meters children and women, carrying out 2 rounds of 5 balls each, like always a total of 10 pitches.

By the way awesome videos!
