South London Bike Polo (Tues/Thurs/Sun) - Newington gardens SE1 / Agnes Riley gardens SW12

Err hello? Based up in glasgow where i polo twice a week. Been playing for about six months so im not great but im down in london next week and would love to come along and borrow a bike and mallet off someone and have a quick game. Ill be in the kingston area. Is that close to where you play? and do you play only on thursday or on other days as well??

Kingston is about 15km away from newington. You can get the train to london waterloo then its a 15min walk or a 50min cycle on a road gear.

Might be better off going to Westway on Thursday evening?

Not much difference in terms of distance, but there are three loaner bikes there.

Westway Sports Centre, W10 6RP. Thursdays 7pm - 10pm.

Cant really do thursdays as good as that sounds as i arrive next thursday and leave on the wednesday after that. I could go on thursday but im just visiting the misses and considering she aint seen me since april i dont think she will let me go so the monday session is the one i have my eye on as she is netballing that night as well so it suits me nicely.
The standard is pretty good amongst the few that play up here and often the edinburgh lot come through and they are good too but i have heard you london lot are pretty talented so would love to sort of come along and play with people playing a different style of game to help me up my game. Unfortunately cant afford or justify bringing my bike down so will have to just hope someone will be kind and let me use theirs for a match or two.... and mallet??

"O R they?"

Still in for tomorrow! Woop!
Ps hi bells and Zoe that was me waving and swinging an air polo mallet at you on hackney road just now! International action for worldPC

Ha, serious enthusiasm ol. See you 7ish.

I've been in bed with a cold since Friday, not gonna make it today... :|

I'm still up for slackers? Anyone else?

Ready!

I think 12 may be a bit early, but I'll be in from about 1-1.30 if that's cool? (eat some lunch)...

4ish? 5ish?

slacker update

Oliver would like it to be known he is at the court playing with himself.

I'm running late (as usual) leaving the house now... There in an hour.

are you guys gonna be there as late as usual?

I won't make it till about 6pm. At least I'm going though, not played for about 2 weeks!

It's not raining and there's two of us.

Fi, LHBPA meeting at the ship at 7.30, so I'll prob head to that.

on the way now...

Anyone coming down that can sell me balls? (I'll cross post on the LHBPA meeting thread) I'm on my last one?

Just a couple would be nice.

Oliver wants one or two too.

I might have a few spare, will see what I can dig out. Otherwise, depending on how late he's finishing work, can swing by the H-crib and pick some magic balls up.

edit: soz, magic balls are sold out. will still see if I've got any spare

Concisely put matt. Cheers, exactly what I wanted to say!

Nice to meet new people / see old faces.
Thanks for polo fun

Hi, is there a beginners polo today?

Jakub, just sent you a text

I'm in and I'm up for some early slacking. And I mean early.

The league thing has made me realise that a few hours practice polo will be a good thing. If anyone wants to join me I'll do it at newt, otherwise I'll do it a bit closer to my home.
