Debbie and myself recently visited the area of Asturias dropping in on Ian Morrison in Oviedo host of the 2008 Senior European Championships.
Ian currently plays for “Oviedo Booling Club” one of the many roller hockey teams who play in the town.
I photographed two of Ian’s matches, the first was Oviedo Booling v Biesca Gijón H.C. on Thursday evening in the 5,000 seat rink. At the end of this bullish match Booling were victorious with a final score of 7 – 3.
Saturdays match was more of a struggle for Booling missing a well deserved draw in a rink built half way up a mountain on the perimeter of Oviedo. The final score was 3 – 2 to current league leaders Centro Asturiano “A” placing Booling 6th in the league.
See the pictures of the two matches.
