It's very unlikely that things will be able to be done so far in advance. We don't even know where/when WHBPC will be yet and that's something I think we should be looking to pivot round (leaving enough of a gap before and after).
Looking at the calendar for next year and noting how packed it is already, I'm leaning towards a slightly different format for 2012. Maybe something that encourages more 1-day/1-court tournaments and allows for the fluid nature of polo teams. I'd also like to separate events like the UK Champs and the London Open but I'd like to hear other people's thoughts about that.
One thing I am very keen to do for next year is get the website sorted out. I'd like to create something where players register as individuals and can then assign themselves into teams. Teams can then edit their bio/results/logo/equipment/whatever page and their tournament history will be documented over the course of the season. Hopefully this will lead to a process where we can set up a NS tournament on the website with the organiser's paypal address, teams pay and register through the website and the organiser gets a clear list of who's coming, who's playing with who and who's put their money up.
Can anyone help me get this done? If not I'm tempted to just pay someone to do it and then try to find sponsorship to cover it.
