Meetball on the Beach

3D FD was proud to facilitate and sponsor the third annual Beach Meetball tournament. Played out in fine weather on a Thursday evening in July on the Canford Cliffs Beach Soccer pitches.

8 local creative / digital businesses entered a team, with the teams being split into two groups. The winner from each group met in the final, with second place meeting in a 3rd place playoff. Thanks to Adido, Bright Blue Day, Greenwood Campbell, Media Lounge, Ratio, Redweb, RLA and 3D FD (team sourced from a range of local creative businesses) for bringing players and supporters, and contributing to a great evening.

Every team played with such a positive and friendly spirit, and many were supported by friends and colleagues. The players and supporters from Greenwood Campbell (above in red) won the Team Spirit award - presented to them for their enthusiastic support, proactive assistance and special mention went to their Lucy Davis who was always looking for opportunities to help the other teams.

The 3rd / 4th playoff was played out between the team from 3D FD (white) and Greenwood Campbell (red), with GC winning to take 3rd place.

Two of Bournemouth's largest agency employers; Bright Blue Day and Redweb played out the final, which was a very close affair, and with Redweb coming out victorious.

Redweb crowned 2017 Beach Meetball Champions!

Thanks and a special mention go to our Heather Brown - we don't have any pictures of Heather as she was taking all the photo's! It would not be any exaggeration to say that without Heather's time planning and delivering the event, it would not happen. Andy and Heather's son Samson also enjoyed helping in many ways on the evening; here he is with Andy. Thanks Heather!
