Roller Hockey Photos

Geneva is a very beautiful city with its cathedral, coffee shops and one of the highest fountains in the world rising 459 ft. above lake Le Man. Spending the morning walking around the old town, taking in the sights then a boat trip around the lake in the afternoon this was the ideal day before going to a roller hockey match in the evening.

Geneva were playing Voldemwald in one of the Swiss premier league (LNA) matches being played on that day. After arriving in a taxi from the town center we discovered a well lit rink with approx 200 seats, ideal for taking photos or just watching the match. With the match under way Voldemwald put the pressure on from the start and scored the first goal, Geneva were in no hurry to take the lead but after a disallowed goal the home team “got their act together” and finalised the score at 7 – 1.

The match finish at around 8.35pm giving us time to jump into the prearranged taxi taking us straight to Geneva airport. As we had previous checked in online we went straight through to security and then on to the plan with the other 24 passengers. I’ve seen more people on a bus. With the one hour time difference we were home by 10.30pm. A grand day out.
