The Team:
Mohammed Bin Drai (2)
Kian Hall (3)
Lucas Criado Jr (6)
Tomas Panelo (9)
Having originally lost to Park Place in the first match of the Talacrest Prince of Wales Championship, Bin Drai Polo went on to face them once again in the final. Throughout the tournament the team had gelled, perfecting their team dynamics and learning from each game, arriving at the final unbeaten and stronger than before.
Playing to their individual strengths saw them send Lucas Cridao out in front, scoring the majority of the goals throughout the tournament while young player Kian Hall continued hs efforts in space creation as well as anticipating passes and interceptions learned from his time with La Dolfina Great Oaks. With Tomas Panelo using his powerful and accurate hit from the back to control the game and open space for his team and Mohammed working up front in attack as well as taking his man, the team had all angles covered and were able to neutralise the usually inpenetrable defensive force of Hilario Ulloa and Benjamin Panelo.
