A quick update from the CISM Championship in Brazil shows that Brazil's female lineup, Fenix, defended the bronze medal position successfully against China. The female lineup of the Golden Knights seem to be ready to challenge the other teams in the female 4-way category at the World Cup 2011.

Aerodyne Deep Blue Defender Laurence Hervé managed to tie the Golden Knights' 24-pointer in the semifinal round with the French female CISM lineup. Now the teams will meet for the next battle in Saarlouis, Germany.

The German team has been defending the second place successfully, and the Golden Knights will have to work very hard to catch up. The NSL News has received information from Germany and will provide more details of the German lineup soon.

Fast Air and Qatar Falcons have improved their standings by one position each. Brazil's X-Dogs will have a very hard time to fend off the charging team from Switzerland. The X-Dogs benefitted from a terrible meet opener of the Swiss team, which has been cutting the distance round by round from then on. The X-Dogs still have a 2-point advantage with two more rounds to come.
