Profile - Eamon Cassells


  • Name: Eamon Cassells
  • Age: 28 (token old guy)
  • Years Playing: 10 (on and off)
  • Current team(s): Hammertime
  • Position:  Handler for club cutter for ECBU
  • Favourite Ultimate Moment: I can think of a few Singing Ireland call before our First match against the yanks at WCBU2011Getting that first win against IndiaA 7 point comeback against OCS with Hammertime during Summer league was pretty special too
  • What are you enjoying most/most looking forward to in the ECBU campaign: Taking on Portugal. We let that game slip through our fingers two years ago. I'm not letting that get away from us again.
  • Anyone you're particularly excited to play alongside: I'm hoping myself, Kevin, Tom and James can have a couple of points together. We know how each other work at this stage and the one line we had together at Yes but Nau worked really well.Kev in particular is a special player. Not just his athleticism and disc work but his ability to bring other people into the game is a rare and beautiful skill. The only other player I've seen match him in that department is Ben Wiggins!Spot has an infectious enthusiasm for the game that you cant help but get caught up inGer is like the wise old sage of the team. When things go wrong he never raises his voice he just calmly points out what went wrong and what needs sorting.Ah here! I'm going to end up naming the whole team at this rate. Lets just say they all have lovely bottoms!
  • Personal Paragraph: If we all play like we are capable of playing the results will come so my big wish is that every player comes home feeling that they played to the level that we all know we can play at.

  • Steve Sez: Building on his experience from worlds, he's pushed himself to the limit in training and got himself in fantastic shape. Especially impressive when you consider how old he is.
