Sunday August 28th. One day tournament at the last day (for now) of the best polo court in the UK.
FREE entry, teams of three. Starts at 10am. Fairly casual so only bring your Dragon Love.
Format to be decided depending on how many teams sign up. Might cap it at 16.
Prizes: £120 vouchers from Brixton Cycles for the winning team.
Open Bar: Party afterwards with LHBPA picking up ~£150 of the tab. Location TBC, possibly Canopy.
Winning team doesn't get their prizes until after the court has been fully dismantled.
Open Bar doesn't begin until after the court has been fully dismantled.
No work, no beer. Free beer tickets only for those who pitch in with taking the court down after.
What needs to be done with the court: The panels need to have the coping at the top taken off; and then all panels stacked in a pile where the others currently are under the tarp. The uprights need to be dismantled as much as possible - preferably so there are no 45 or 90 degree angles of joined timber.
I can bring an impact driver with two batteries, and a 3 foot crowbar. Herne Hill have a chainsaw that we will be able to use for the refuseniks who won't come apart with the usual pressures. If you have any lump hammers, drills, crowbars, hand saws, etc, please bring them along. Working together we should have the court down and stacked in the space of less than an hour.
