Box Hill North 12 August 2017 - by Stephen Alomes
On one of those windy August days, out in suburban Melbourne, came the clash of two of the favourites for division 2 men’s – Japan and Germany.
Although in the same pool, it seemed like an anticipation of a key final, after both had easy victories against their opponents in earlier matches.

Played at Box Hill North, where Elgar Rd meets the eastern freeway, the ground has an old Japan Samurai connection, as scholarship players have gone to the Box Hill North amateur team in the past.
