peckham: Always dry, always lit, surprisingly warm, continuously sketchy, columns to dodge, low roof, (even Yorgo hit his mallet on the roof). Amazing sunsets as spring rolled around, rude boys, threats of stabbing. Pissy lift and bar story for guinness and open fire til late.
Vauxhall: Cheese grater walls, terrible goals, rough ass surface. Mrak and Muffins. First saw shippey play there and went 'whoa!'. Early kick out. Terrible court but happy memories. The name BAD polo or 'whose BAD' was invented there.
Downham: Always social, tyres always feel flat on the uneven court. Always get "what are you doing here?" Always get hammered. London klozed tournament, V day, league finales. So many skinned elbows on the walls.
Newington: So much summer polo, great tourneys, unfathomable amounts of tree sex. Wednesday nights saving my soul since 2008. My first trophy.
Mitch: Polo olympics.
Downs: Sorse arse 20 mile round trip. Meh surface, shit fence. Fantastic L.O.
i love them all.
