Tourney: Yippee! One team spot available for Euros

One place in the Euros has become available. It’s been offered to a London team, to be decided by the London Polo Community. We need to decide very quickly.

I guess we should have a quick vote.

The spot should go to:

1) The team that took fifth place in the qualifers
2) A team to be decided by community vote

Any other options? I don't think we have time to run another mini-qualifier, such as was discussed during the co-ed team discussion. But this is open to discussion too.

who dropped out?

another option should be for those not given a chance to qualify, please.

The team who got 5th

another option should be for those not given a chance to qualify, please.
That's covered under option 2.

I vote Option 2.

Any other options? I don't think we have time to run another mini-qualifier

But teams who couldn't make the qualifiers should have the opportunity to play the 5th placed team?

Are the team who came 5th still a team?
I vote option 2.

Nes's team from MCR dropped out. She's hurt and can't find a whole team to play. I think Freaky Sexx got fifth.

Sarah: I'm happy to put that option down, but can you propose a way to sort our the tourney?

Let's give ourselves some time here to sort out the options, and then we can post a formal vote with a 48 hour deadline. Or something like that.

So what happened to Birmingham? Nes offered the spot to them first.

But I don't think it should be a tourney! Just whoever feels they've missed out by not having a chance to qualify (i.e. all 4 spots given away before letting half the community play) should set up a game against the 5th placed team :)

I agree Sarah.
Whoever wants a shot at the Euros should declare it here and they can play to win.

1) The team that took fifth place in the qualifers
2) A team to be decided by community vote
3) Whoever feels they've missed out by not having a chance to qualify should set up a game against the 5th placed team?

Any other options?

;833320']So what happened to Birmingham? Nes offered the spot to them first.

Nes emailed me and said that if I had not heard from Birmingham I should give the spot to London. I had not heard from Birmingham. Then Mike contacted Birmingham and they said it's very unlikely they will play, but they would ask around again. Then I got an email from Iain saying that he spoke with Roxy and she said that I was supposed to give the spot to London. I did as instructed.

i think it should quite clearly be the 14 year old moustaches... promoting londons youth and that...

I think the team with the most controversial name should be let through.

GO JiHaD!

(Or the crowds favourite?)
;)

option 3 sound good, but has to be decide (play) this saturday

if not

option 2

Los Conos should play - they will beat a lot of people and shock the foreign teams who don't expect a girls team to be so good.

so Yorgo, option 2.

option 2
...los conos, but don't put them in our group :)

This is great news!

Option 3.

option 2
...los conos, but don't put them in our group :)

:)

Yep, option 3 sounds like a good one.

5th place team in the qualifiers or Los Conos.
