June 9th,2004
Portsmouth,England-World Cup Qualifier
  Fifteen Teams from three countries took part in the years first international World Cup Qualifier. Teams from England, France and the USA all participated in the International Flag Football Federations tournament, which offered 5man No Contact on Saturday and 9Man Ineligible format on Sunday.
        Team USA only comprised of nine committed players from all over the USA, some traveling as far as 6000 miles. The Tour is a part of an educational process to help the international teams properly prepare for the World Cup tournament slated for the USA in Feb of 2005.
   All Nine players on Team USA’s squad had played for Team USA at this past years World Cup Event in the Dominican.  Team USA won the 5man No Contact and 9Man Ineligible titles at the English Challenge by defeating Team France in both Championship games.  In the 5man No contact Saturday contest, Team USA went 5-0 on the day. In the Championship game Team USA defeated France 28-13 for the win. QB & MVP Pat Connolly connected with Adam Desanctis for two scores and one each to James Mayo and Mike Hawff to round out the scoring.Team USA struggled a bit with the Derby Dream Team, as the Dream Team was winning at halftime 7-6. The Dream Team was playing with mostly offensive lineman but played a strong zone defense with Team England players Butch Ebo, Austin Bradshaw and JP to keep the Americans in check for the first half. In the Second half Team USA scored three touchdowns for the win, two from Brian Backman and one from James Mayo.
    Team France was no match for the English Squads, as shifty QB Flavien Charles, who consistently avoided the rush and threw some nice Touchdown passes to his key receiver Eric Pierre.
    In 9Man Ineligible action it was all USA dominance as the team went 4-0 only giving up 12 points. Team USA was short handed, so they picked up two French Players Albin Notteau and Carole D'attoma. Albin played a solid offensive line, while Carole was a standout on offense as she scored five touchdowns and four extra tries. Adam Desanctis scored six touchdowns as he was awarded MVP Honors. In the Championship game, Desanctis started off the scoring on a 60 yard scamper, Jim Zimolka then caught a 15 yard pass to give the USA a comfortable 13-0 led, before France scored on a 10 yard pass from QB Flavien Charles to WR- Eric Pierre. The games final score came on Adam’s 60 yard Touch down jaunt.
