Did you know that there are several interesting 4-way and 8-way double duties in Eloy? posted: Oct 9th, 2019 The 8-way competition of the FAI Outdoor World Cup lived up to all high expectations on Tuesday morning, and it seemed to be difficult for the 4-way event to match the level of excitement and thrill this time. Most often, the 4-way competition takes the center stage, and the 8-way teams do not get as much attention.
