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

Damn it seems i've missed this thread. Would love to try some polo, is it ok that i have no polo experiance? and if so when is the next one, and where exactly is the car park cause i don't know peckham that well. thanks

car park should be on places, and time should be on top. to play you have to have won at least 3 Olimpic gold metals in the sport of theives. if you have enver been shamed by a bronze then you are not allowed to attended.

and there is a sunday one on brick ln and bethnal green rd 2ish pm.

everything chris wrote is true...including the Olympic gold medals

all welcome - the more the merrier

You don't need experience, mallets, or ball - we will have everything

south side polo is every wednesday at 7:30

location:

flickwg ok so i've made a map to help everyone and myself

as always arrospok marks the spot

wow that map is really good - who drew that? ;-)

i'm annoyed i missed polo on wednesday, but this week has been a bit crap, altho at least my bike was not abused by estelle
i really gotta get my polo bike sorted

who's up for tonight!!!???!!! I have new polo gearing on me old 'pete luxton' all sorted and wanna give it a go?

Yeah, I'm in for tonight. After a few weeks of missing polo, I feel it's time to hurl myself and my new bike to the ground a few times.

i'm game as well after a few week's absence

On the way back from Brick Lane on Sunday through Lewisham I found another SE spot that looks great for dicking around on bikes. The Quaggy Ball Park on Lewisham Road junction with Orchard Hill. Fenced in floodlit at night and open 24 hours. The wavy thing casting a shadow at the bottom of the satellite view is a 50 foot long bench for spectators

i hope to be there

i'm in.

Can someone bring a tennis ball? I'm wanting to try a few different balls to see how they are with polo. James lent me a street hockey ball which i'll bring along as well as the usual normal hockey ball.

Man-flu! Not tonight folks...

*tapioca * i'm in.

why do you want to try another ball..is the original ball not working at the south london pitch?

i think the saftey issue has been highlighted
the dent in dave's frame is massive, and thats metal, so it could do a heck of a lot of damage to a human
also balls have been popping up in the south, uneven surfaces

i cant come along because im babysitting, (means i get loadsamoney!) but next week ill be along with my new oldsworth polo bike, which i managed to scrape together for £25! but have fun this week.
