Pompey EMC – a team made up of ICG researchers and other staff in the Faculty of Technology – have won the University of Portsmouth staff 5-a-side league for the second time in 12 months. They beat Djangos 7-6 in a cup-final thriller earlier today, having defeated the university’s Sport+Recreation department 5-4 in last week’s semi-final.
The winning cup-final team are pictured below, from left to right: (back row) Tom Melvin, Andreas Papadopulous, Dirk Hennig, Chaowalit “Wan” Hamontree, (front row) Leonidas Christodoulou and Helder Costa.
Other ICG staff involved in the tournament include player/manager, Mat Pieri, and ICG director, David Wands, who was carried off in the semi-final with a broken ankle.
