  • how big should a court be, is the one we use too small then?

  • theres a fenced in tennis court on newnham common off Fen Causeway, that might be worth a look. theres that carpark over by the paddling pool for car using folk.

  • hey sorry to take over the page but does anyone have any flat/riser bars for sale to fit a 1 inch/2.5cm stem clamp?

    i'll pipe down now.

    Public court in the middle of a busy park.
    Tons of feckers turn up to play tennis.
    The fence doesn't connect to the ground well so the ball gets stuck when it hits the sides.
    there are two giant metal fuckers sticking out the ground which are potentially death bollards

    No point looking on google map. I went to like 34 different courts i could spot in cambridge and they all are shite or get too crowded with kids wanting to play football. Unless you actually know a good spot, don't bother going to see something you have seen on google maps

  • Moz I think i got something will maybe fit , i'll check and get back to you ............

    Eddie has already been everywhere in the known universe checking for polo courts and only found 3

    1. Barnwell community centre (our spiritual home, aaah !)
    2. Trumpington (site of our tournament)
    3. Arbury Muga court ( we're scared of the children that play there)
  • woo im am out of the nursery

  • that's cool was just a suggestion, id cycled past it a few times but admit hadn't looked super close, assumed it was one of those deals where the posts can be taken out, stand corrected!

    fox thats great about those bars, thanks dude!

  • Why are we court hunting, what exactly is wrong with our beloved Barnwell?

  • we had a couple of issues a few months back with the centre managers, completely resolved now (mostly). the manor school thing was looked into back then, not much happened then suddenly we get offers of this that and the other!

    it would be nice to get some free lights going on a nice public court somewhere in town, similiar to the courts in london (newington gardens, mitchison road, etc). we're lacking choice at the moment which sucks.

    rant/ plus cambridge council can't be arsed, they're too busy spending money on their useless staff, thinking up ways of getting people to stop driving cars (by charging them to enter the city they work in) and avoid paying for the guided bus (that they owe the contractor millions on because they're useless at understanding contracts) to care about the massive obesity problem facing our city and that by providing better sports facilities more kids might lose weight (and stop theiving from boredom) therefore saving money to employ more useless cunts to continue the cycle of never-ending bureaucracy and red tape bollocks that we have to endure day in day out.

    bad day.

  • massive obesity problem facing our city

    Fatty polo... That would make my day!

    Ah HA ! we're gonna convert you into an angry Nihilist Utopian Anarchist guerilla poloist , pedal into the city centre and fuck the mayor up his arse.

  • well, theres abbey pool with free lights innit

  • Yeah i thought that was ok , a bit of a weird surface

  • who's the mayor? is she fit?

    what an odd rant, i just re-read it. car overheated, yet i took it out on the council. fuck knows. any excuse ey!!

  • They are devils , head gasket gone ?

  • who's the mayor? is she fit?

    Ahem...

  • That grin reminds me of:

  • They are devils , head gasket gone ?

    luckily no! it took 3 litres of water to bring the level back up. the rad cap is faulty so got a new one. no mayonnaise

  • Ahem...

    goodness thats a big mouth

  • with all the talk of going to berlin, barcelona, geneva etc it would probably be a good idea if we set a date for our summer tourney so peeps can put it in their diary sooner rather than later. anyone got any ideas for dates, trophies, cakes, etc.

    seems april/may/june there are gaps in the polo calendar, june for win?

  • When was it last year? Would we do it at Trumpington again?

  • When was it last year? Would we do it at Trumpington again?

    11th July 2009. we could do trumpington again for no hassles, or speak to manor school about getting their large tennis courts and look into temporary court walls (like the euros maybe), although would we get 30+ teams? plus its extra aggro.

    i vote trump again, or pile into barnwell!!

  • 90 people plus at barwell that could get intresting

  • opps ment Barnwell
