Greece and NZ and Olympics

I don't think it would be good preparation at all.

Its not a friendly warm up/usual preparatory game, where you can spread minutes and try new combinations.

All the games at these qualification tournaments are do or die type games with gritty defense.

The teams that make the Olympics from the qualifying tournament will be tired emotionally and physically come London.

Greece have not yet qualified and are using the 3-game series against the Boomers as a warm up for the Olympic qualification event in Venezuela as mentioned in other threads.

Olympic qualification tournament for those successfull would be a fabulous lead in to London...

WE play Brasil, this probably our most important game of this pool round.

Good luck girls, can we keep all comments in one thread?

yeah going from a high pressure tournament of a handful of games pretty much straight to the olympics could be a good thing for the qualifiers for sure.
