Tourney: WHBPC 2012 - Geneva - 2012/08/14-18

It dosnt work to sign up, the code you have to enter is fucked i've tried it 4 times.

Hmm, here's your dummy account: http://hardcourtbikepolo.org/polo/main/player/32101.html

I'll email the guy who runs it.

nice one, does that mean were done J?

No, that just means you already exist on their system, rather than needing a new account, basically you just need to take over that account, and set a password.

must have been one of the other boys. although it says 'lucas' and cant believe either of them would have written that. ???

I think that was autofilled by the organisers/podium.

Any team who want to try to get into the Wildcard in Geneva have to fill this form: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?fromEmail=true&formkey=dFg0bFFja1FFR2xfaVJCb2QxM1JrSkE6MQ
I know nice touch and tornadoes as the geekest worldwide teams.

We can't say everybody gonna get a slot, but you have a serious chance to do. Teams who already get a ticket in EHBPC 2012, by getting ranked just over 16th have to fill this too, even if they slots are garanteed.

Get off my computer Jono!

Ah, that's better.

Yes! Geeks 4lyf, Clem.

Just booked with BA from and to Heathrow

Wed 15th LDN 11:40 arriving 14:20 GVA
Sun 19th GVA 17:30 arriving 18:05 LDN

Commin' from Airpot!!:
For those who come by flight, don't forget to take you free ticket transports at the Baggage Claim ( a grey and white distributor just before the custom aera). Push the button. The ticket will give you free transports in Geneva for one hour. With this you can take the train, directly to the train station CORNAVIN, right in the middle of the geneva. From there, the ride to courts is 4 minutes on the main street call "Rue de Lausanne". If your back is always in a box or a bag you can take it into the tram (small train) to get really close to courts. Publics transports didn't allow bikes in them.

Plan commin' soon.

Does anyone want to buy some Geneva travel on the cheap (Eurostar and TGV outbound)? Ryan and I are now going to Stuttgart on the way to Geneva for a test shoot and don't need our tickets.

The Eurostar tickets are easily transferable, I think the TGV is too but will check.

Fot the TGV they don't check ID and ticket, but tickets only so no problem.
