Season 2 of the TRIUMF Science Week Soccer Tournament (aka. "Nigel's revenge rematch") was a total success! Thanks to everyone who made this possible!
We will be back in 2024 with two competitions - one for the really competitive fighters, and one for those who just want to have fun and kick (accidentally!) their colleagues shins?
10 teams have been registered to fight for an object that lived a happy life as turbo pump (until failure) and was reborn as the TRIUMF Soccer Cup in 2023 (thanks to technician Mel Good)!
The first ones ever to lift that trophy (or snuggle with it - not recommended) were "Maxwell's Demons", the glorious winners in the inaugural 2022 tournament.
We have a new champion!!!
Congratulation to The Entangled 8 who won the thrilling final 2 - 1 against Vittoria FC!
