Report

Denny Notre Dame shocked everyone by winning the 31st Roy Curtis International Tournament. Anthony Jenkins was the star as they defeated top Dutch side Finish Profiles Amsterdam, not once, but twice to claim the prestigious International Tournament. [1-4]

Amsterdam had come into the Tournament as favourites having already beaten the 1995 winners, Den Bosch back in the Netherlands. [5]
