Tweed Run May 6th - money, free booze, sponsorship

So the Tweed Run is on May 6th. I've been explaining the concept of Bike Polo to the events company that now runs it. They have fallen in love with the idea of having the most genteel bike polo event ever in the afternoon at the final venue (which does have a suitable tennis court).

1. They're looking for a few people willing to run a stall in the afternoon, explaining (and maybe demonstrating) bike polo. For this they would pay. Also perks including free booze.
   
2. They're hoping to get some of the members to give it a go. Some of the marshals have experience and will be putting together a team. An experienced person (or two) willing to be a referee would get pay and perks.
   
3. They are interested in the idea of having teams to represent some of the ride's sponsors. Some sponsors might be able to find their own people, others may look to the marshals. But if anybody is interested, there would be gifts from the sponsors, prizes, more free booze. I don't have the current list of sponsors but it's always a mix of clothing firms, cycling firms, hipster accessory/grooming firms (e.g. Murdocks) and booze sellers (Hendricks, Pol Roger, Johnnie Walker in previous years). Possibly very nice perks from some of the ride's sponsors; in most previous years, one of the clothing firms fitted out one of our volunteers in a tweed suit (which they got to keep). If they could find enough experienced people to represent even just two sponsors, it could be organised so that there was a sponsors game separate from the members games, so that serious polo folk don't have to mix it up with total noobs if they don't want to.
   
   

If this interests anybody, drop me a pm.

Oh, don't forget to post here to say what a terrible idea this is, exploitative, derisory, unsafe, making a mockery of a noble sport etc.
