To be to your detriment

Please would you tell me whether " to be to your detriment" correct
The crowd being so loud was almost to our detriment. We couldn't hear what our teammates were saying.

Thanks

Yes, although you might wish to say the noise of the crowd was almost to our detriment instead of the crowd being so loud was... It sounds a bit more natural.
