It's not a shame that it's organised privately, it's a contingency. If you say 'team games tomorrow', people might say 'woo, yay, count me in', but at the same time you'll say 'oh but 5 teams is pushing it', and moreover, 'but turn up in a three to play' - oxymoronic.
Tomorrow, I'd like to play polo, but tornadoes aren't all around. Sounds like there are many teams already. If there is a secret throw in polo session, I'll go to that.
Who cares if it's fragmentary? London is big, and there doesn't seem to be a way around it, apart from benching people for the day and saying 'sorry, today you can't play polo, even if you want to' - and that's just plain mean.
