According to all reports the Columia tournament is a big success. The scores are available at Maximus Quadrugby on the Canadian site. The referee and classifier clinics are doing their job with Canadian and US refs and classifiers running the training.
The volunteer US team is enjoying the tournament, helping, along with the large Canadian contingent, bring this great sport to the developing teams of Brazil, Argentina and Columbia.
John Bishop and Dan McCauley did a lot to help the gracious hosts, Columbia make this a great opportunity to expand quad rugby into the southern half of the Americas zone.

Have a great time guys and don't let the Canadians get by you.
Thanks for the pics John. Congratulations Juan Pablo I hear you have done a great job. Sure wish I could have made the trip.
The United States team defeated the Canadian team in the championship game of the Maximus Quadrugby Tournament in Bogota, Columbia. Scores can be found on the CWSA site calender at Maximus Quadrugby.
John Bishop has added more pictures of the event and of the facility and city of Bogota at Maximus Pics. From all accounts, tournament director Juan Maximus and the Columbian government went all out to make this tournament a memorable event.
The US and Canadian players, referees, classifiers and staff report having a very successful time in teaching the Argentinian, Brazilian and Columbian participants all of the rugby lore they could pass on. This should help to make the 2009 American Zonal tournament in Argentina a world class even and gives the teams and staff invaluable experience toward learning the great sport of quad rugby.
