Semi-final ... banquet ... the end

Thursday 9th April 2009:
There were still four teams in the competition: Wellington, Pune, Griffith and KCL !!!
After a long night of rest at the hotel for Camille and a couple of whiskeys at a club for Basile, the team mooted against the most extraodinary team: VUW (Victoria University of wellington) ... two amazing pleaders David and Katherine and an amazing coach Dr Petra Butler.

Almost a pleasure to loose agaisnt them ... at least a great pleasure to have mooted with them and, even though the final was very close, the KCL team was very happy to end third equal (out of 233 universities) in the 16th Willem C Vis moot.

Congratulations camille and Basile and congratulation to the rest of the team !!!


A bit disappointed and ecstatic at the same time, the KCL team rushed to the hotel then to the banquet in order to watch the final opposing VUW and Pune (India).
The winner was ... Victoria University of Wellington !!! congratulation to this wonderful team !!!

At the Banquet, the KCL team shared its table with another wonderful team, the versailles Bar School team, which managed to go to the final rounds without any coach.
