Despite a fiercely fought semi-final between Vari-Lite and White Light, particularly as the scores drew closer, there was an atmosphere of fun and a great day out was had by all. As the final whistle sounded, the scoreboard read Fourth Phase as the winners, with Vari-Lite as runners up, followed by White Light, Creative Stages and DHA. DHA were 'compensated' with wooden spoons that have since taken pride of place on their desks. Louise Tester, UK & Eire sales manager at DHA, also received a plaque for being the only female willing to take part! Sadly, for all his pains, Nigel 'the cat' Sadler only got a pain in his back, having spent all day picking the ball out of the net!
"It was a good fun day, which we plan to repeat again soon - hopefully with some additional teams," said Alan Thomson, managing director at Fourth Phase London. "We all had an excellent time and DHA, in particular, having scored no goals all day, were great sports!"
