Yeah I'm trying to follow too, surely they can't still be playing - must be pitch black

the team is called polonauten and they playing professional indoor "bikepolo" (http://rc-wendelstein.de)

indoor bikepolo? I thought they played radball

nope, it's called "radpolo". the rules and differences are explained here (only in german): http://radsport-mittelfranken.de/radball-radpolo/index.html

Tweet from Cosmic says "Yank your wank(jagwolves and nick Kruse) win! Double final.! #bikepolo"

Yank the wank took the open crown.
PSG 2nd

I had an awesome weekend at the Tourney. Was helping with the LCC stand, it was lovely to get a warm welcome and see so many familiar faces.

The spirit of the event was fantastic, a great willingness to work together, great camaraderie amongst the players, people helping out all over the place, graceful competition, good sportsmanship. The weather did not affect the positive spirit, huddling together under the scant cover from the elements like penguins was an unexpected highlight, lots of great banter ensued.

The one thing that was missing was the heckling of old, few chants of "your shit" etc. Though the team names were fantastic, each time I heard someone was playing with your mum I chuckled.

Was sad to leave this evening, so did not see the last couple of rounds. The games that I saw were fantastic, great skills on display.

As an occasional observer there were some notable developments in gameplay. Teamwork and spatial awareness are key to how the game has advanced. Also a delicate touch rather than strength at belting the ball has refined the technique. The game flows much better, a few years ago there were many more body checks but with no certainty of remaining in play, and instead people are playing the ball and to stay in play much more.

Hats off to the organisers and everyone involved it was a truly excellent weekend.

Thanks for the awesome tournament, great fun, etc. etc.

Are the boards coming off tomorrow? Do you need extra hands and when do you need them?

Boards are being dismantled today, any extra hands greatly appreciated. Also taking a bunch of stuff out of the container and to Jono's.

First experience of polo and really loved it. Some impressions;

Match between Addison and something tits really upped the ante so far as being hectic goes, only to be topped when Spring Break took to the same court afterwards to play one of them I think, and the drama increased even more. And obviously any match involving Alfie was memorable.

Congratulations to the organisers - you did yourselves proud.

Special mention to the bike handling too. Found that just as absorbing as the skill/tactics of the games.

May have to drop by and give a hand with the dismantling.

Cheers guys, a pleasure as always. Was nice to meet players from further afield and a few non playing forumers.

Awesome weekend guys. I had to leave before all the awards and the like, to try and get a train. Who got MVP in the end?

I left James (Aufbruch)'s Brine lacrosse glove in the container. Can someone try and get it back to him?

Sorry I didn't get it back to you personally, thanks for the loan.
