41st Challenge Cup
Championship Match:
RICK MARQUES
1-1 (2-1)
MIGUEL MARQUES



The 41st Challenge Cup saw the uninspired Silvas
losing to the on-fire Marques Brothers.  Lou's flicks
were just not there as he could not create much,
despite a rather open game. Frank on the other hand
competed against Rick and lost 2-1 and 3-1 to
Miguel. He had chances to score, but by taking those
extra flicks, he gave his opponents time to regroup
defensively. This was the first Club title for the young
Marques, who is definately the most improved player
in the State.
