Tourney: EHBPC2010 Geneva Qualifiers 11.04.2010

max the only people that 'considered' adding their names to the qualy list were people who didnt have full teams and didnt play regularly as far as i saw.

Perhaps that's because no one new it was going to be a definitive list.
Perhaps that's because they were still thinking about forming teams/ talking to people about it.
Perhaps because they knew that, according to Geneva, they still had time.

Its already going to take a lot of time to get through the games adding more teams that realistically have a much much lesser chance seems to play polo for the sake of it.

Polo isn't just about winning and competing.

The list was up before Dan hurt his hand wasnt it?

This is about making polo inclusive and not ruling out people for the competitiveness of it, not about a particular team.

London polo is very inclusive max, but logistically adding teams when people had plenty of time to register interest regardless of clements point just because we don't want to upset anyone is just stupid.

Not wanting to upset people in our community who just want to play more polo is a great reason to allow people to play. Barring them from a tournament is a "stupid" reason.

Nobody registered interest until they were told the opportunity would be lost, then all this kicked up.

Well, duh! Yes, when they found out they missed out on an opportunity they didn't know they had missed out on they inquired. That's usually how these things work.
