April 7th, 2012 · 3 Comments
Today started the 26th edition of the Albert- Schweitzer Tournament in Mannheim (Germany). After having moved away from the traditional US Sports Arena, the Waldsporthalle in Viernheim was the newcomer among the gyms on the schedule. So I decided to follow the games in this new facility that was nicely filled throughout the day.

The second day in Wroclaw featured the very anticipated semi-finals of a tournament that was really open at this stage with no real favorite and no real stand-out players so far. But as always, the day started with the classification games.
