Beginners Polo

Yeah, amazing session, I can't believe how many people there were, we need 2 courts soon ;)

I really enjoyed tonight, I feel like I'm starting to get a bit better, positioning and ball handling is starting to feel more natural. Hopefully I can translate those skills into the NE and Souths sessions.

Sorry that I'm going to be away for the next 3 weeks, the beginner polo sessions are in a really exciting position at the moment, by the time I come back you will probably all be pros...

good session tonight guys
effort getting home though?
how was daves leg/saddle?

well done getting this off the ground Joni. looks like its going really well!

14-15 people EPIC WIN!!

well done Joni

Thanks guys, appreciate it.

+1.

imagine how many you'd have had by now if it hadnt been a secret society to begin ;)

Hello All

New to the forum

I'd like to try playing bike polo. When is the best/next session for new folks?
Also is it better to play when I have a bike specifically for polo? My current bike is a total zombie or will anything do? Hope so. :)

Look forward to getting some replies.

When is the best/next session for new folks?

Every Tuesday, 7pm, Quorn Road, Camberwell.

Also is it better to play when I have a bike specifically for polo? My current bike is a total zombie or will anything do? Hope so. :)

Start with with whatever you have (maybe not if it's a full carbon road bike), then if you enjoy it build up a polo bike.

Hey mate. Beginners polo is every Tuesday at 7pm, map on the first page.
We have quite a few people on geared bikes, some on their commuters and some on polo bikes, so it doesn't matter as long as you don't mind if it gets a scraping and there's nothing sharp sticking out of it. We'd prefer no drop handlebars too.
Give me a shout early Tuesday if you want me to bring a spare mallet, bring some beer, and you're good to go!

Hey John H, Wicksie,

Thanks for the reply. I'll venture to the dirty south, this week coming or the next. Either way I'll politely request a spare mallet in advance. :)

Have a good start to the weekend.

Remind me on Tuesday so I know how many I have to bring matey.
Cheers.

On again, Tuesday next week?

Yes mate, come on down.

Ace :)

Wiksie, can you bring Skydancer's lock anyway? I'll take it back to him. He might need it to assault motorists with in the future!

Thanks fausto

The new Emmet...?
