AOYKC 2011 Draw Released

Hi All,


Exciting news - today the draw has been released for the tournament. Eight teams are confirmed which will create a truly international tournament and a chance for us to meet Korfballers from all over the Asia-Oceania region. The pools are based on current world rankings at U23 level and we have ended up with a tough challenge ahead of us. In our pool are Chinese Taipei (one of the top three teams in the world), China (an emerging strength in Korfball), and Pakistan (new-comers to the international scene with this being only their second international tournament). At this stage we are unsure where we need to finish to gain qualification to the World Champs in Barcelona, however indications are that a top 4 finish should get us there.
