2 v 2 Tournament, Sunday 10th April, Highgate 10am-3pm(ish)

Get there for 10 then! I think perma-ref is a bad idea anyway. Nobody has that level of attention/masochism.

Hash said tonight that he'd like to play, but doesn't have a polo bike at the moment. Would either of the lefties (Dan/Simon) be okay with lending him their bike while they're not playing?

Also, does anyone know if Chris is playing?

Seeding (with my adjudication for Neil, Jess and Hash) would be as follows, so you can work out who you'd likely to be playing with*:

dan
andy
fin
dan
neil
lucas
pete
matt
hash
sarah
simon
jess

*I'm still strongly in favour of random teams - more fun/unpredictable.

quite welcome to borrow my bike no probs, bit of a personal set up but hey.

ohhh seeded so low...the pain...

good luck on the wings....

=P

^jest

a righty please....

1. 2.
   
   

fin is so right..pass between yourself...then use leftness when you 'common folk' decide to try it....

Goal sizes? 90cm?
Can someone bring some gaffer tape.
Seeding is prob more inclusive/equalising tho.

Chris will most likely be away at the manchester bike conference.

Is that seeding official? Or just your opinion dan?

Just my opinion - Pete suggested I place Neil, Jess (and by extension Hash) for the purposes of this mini tournament, but I bumped you up the list a bit too.

Both decisions are a bit presumptuous, the latter especially (I wasn't really thinking last night) and can always be reversed.

Random teams! I might be seeded i little highly up that list too....

Actually, no, I didn't bump you up after all! Clearly second-guessing my last-night sleepy self....

It's just a theoretical list for this one-off day of polo, just to get an idea of who might be playing with whom. Don't sweat it.

Goal sizes? 90cm?

I reckon something like that. Small enough to discourage long-shooters and perma-goalies, but not so small that you have to be an inch in front of goal to score.

Things we need list:
Gaffer tape or chalk
Tape measure - dan
Timer - fin?
Clipboard, paper, pen
Whistle?
Cones - dan

Gaffer tape stashed in my ruck sack.

Can't copy or paste for some reason.

And chalk.

Should be able to get some chalk...

Anyone got a whiteboard and pen for scores/fixtures?

Actually I've probably got one of those too....

Probably not necessary considering the small number of teams - a few clipboards would be fine, one for formatting, another for tallying scorers.

Any prizes? top scorer, mvp etc. Dan have you still got a few of those brooks saddles?

Still have three left, as I'm not taking one. Was going to just give them to seeded players based on next seeding, but could do a couple for this tournament instead if you reckon.

Definitely we're keeping a tab of goal scorers -

If you win you'll get one and after you give it yourself back you'll still have three, awesome.

cheers danwentskiing and 2squeak for sorting me out a polo bike for sunday but I wasn't thinking when I spoke to danwentskiing about this. the mother of my 2 children is moving cities on sunday so will be busy with that. sorry guys, have a good one.

:(

Can we have a spot prize for general effort/most tap outs/shrieks of joy when you score your only goal?

I've got my eye on most tap outs...

I've heard that you have got to contribute to the cost of repainting the fence being as you have made so many mallet marks on it.........

:-p

There is one critical thing missing off the list....
