There was no frost for the sixth, and final, round of 2024/25 Frostbite League; but it was cold (3°), damp, dull and there was a chilly breezy making it feel like the coldest of this seasons matches.
The wind was variable in both direction and strength, most of the time the wind tapes seemed confused as to what they should be indicating.
