Dear All,

Maybe I am not the best movie maker, but you can see the draw of Druid's Cup, below. I would like to invite you to watch the video and comments here after draw. Are you happy from the draw or not? What do you think about your group, etc. :)

2024-08-13 22:12:06
Thank you for organizing this!

Deutschland, Suomi, England, and Scotland: I think this is a solid group. England had a strong showing at the World Cup, proving they belong at the top, not in Pot 3. Scotland is more of an unknown to me—difficult to gauge at the moment. Suomi, on the other hand, is traditionally a strong team. The differences between the teams from Pot 3 are small, so surprises are definitely possible. Scotland, in particular, is hard for me to assess.

How do you see the other groups shaping up?
2024-08-13 22:18:14
In my opinion your group is the most difficult, but first match you will play against Scotland so I think that you win this match. I think that England would like to win against Finland to take revange for World Cup. Maybe about Final A you will play against England :)

Very interesting situation in group B. Poland had Peru in group WCQ on WC and now also have chance to play against Peru for final A :)
2024-08-13 22:39:48
Germanek, thanks for the extra emotions :)

National teams by ranking points:
Group B
1. Polska U21 3490.99 (The draw from 1 basket confirms that Poland is the favorite of the group, on the field you only have to confirm it.)
21. Österreich U21 2591.84 (I don't know this national team, I don't know their potential, their capabilities, I have to take a good look at this national team, get to know it, but I expect that it will not be an easy opponent..)
31. Perú U21 2394.83 (hihihi amazing as Poland U21 has the luck and pleasure this season to play with the national team of Peru U21. Our last matches: 3 wins for Poland U21. We are match favourites)
44. Sverige U21 1855.92 (Incalculable team Sweden U21, and at its head unpredictable, with experience my colleague marvik :) It will be a duel of friends :))

I wish all participants of Druids Cup a pleasant fun, and cool emotions. What counts is fun and fan. Good luck dear colleagues, no matter who wins this fun, it is important that we can have fun. Germanek for you thank you for this Tournament :)

I think Marvik will try to win against Poland :-) maybe he doesn't have the best team, but I think he would like to beat You :-p

Maybe we can meet in 1/4 round if you and I will win two matches in our group, but I think that France will be very strong and after my match against Greece last Saturday I am a little afraid about my team :-)
2024-08-13 22:53:03
I would like to play with you in the Druids Cup, so we have to fight to make our match happen. Marvik, well, he would definitely like to win against Poland U21, I will ask and who wouldn't? :-)
2024-08-13 22:56:55
We will see if we will play. I don't have lucky to Druid's Cup , but I think Poland won 4th edition :-)
2024-08-13 23:29:41
Hrvatska vs. Schweiz!
We have open questions from U20 Mini WC! ;)
We played against Portugal and Danmark from Pot 3 already.
It will be different test, and I have great respect to Edson!
2024-08-14 05:49:46
For sure your match against Edson will be very interesting. We will see which team will have chance to play for Final A ;-)
2024-08-14 08:52:04
Omg whats a group xD portugal Serbia and Brazil !
2024-08-14 09:05:30
First match you will play against Brasil and later against Portugal or Srbija, but you have very tough opponents:-)

Dear All,

Today Bulgaria and Agentina played last match of World Cup. Congratulations for both coaches !!!

It is pleasure that Bulgaria will play in Druid's Cup so all teams will have motivation to beat World Cup Champion :)

Please remeber that tomorrow you can send the invitations for the first matches of the tournament.

I have sent to all coaches who are playing in the tournament @sk with reminder about the Druid's Cup.

Please send invitation to friendly cup match !!! If the teams set friendly match then I will count the result till 90 minutes, if after 90 minutes will be draw then the winner will be team who was't responsible for set the match.

Also each team need to use max u20 players if the coaches will put on the pitch U21 player the coach who will do it will loose by walkover !!!

Please also remember that each match is very important. If you will loose first match you can't play in Final A and you will not win the Druid's Cup :)

Good luck and enjoy the tournament !!!
