Tourney: Downham Classic - 2 vs 2 - TBA

As the Christmas Special didn't happen, and there is no Valentines tournament planned this year, we are missing a 2 vs 2 tournament at Downham.

So Sun 10th March, there will be as 2 vs 2 tournament.

This will be weather dependant, if it's pissing down it won't happen. So don't book flights to come here.

Format will be decided by the number of teams that sign up, probably either Swiss and SE, or maybe just Quad Elim (lose 4 times and you are out).

Prizes sponsored by Magic.

single elim golden goal.... come on!

Ha!

Nice! On my weekend off!

Have you guys ever tried mini goals for 2 v 2? We do it in Brum whilst waiting for hungover hipsters to arrive. c30-60cm goals kind of makes it like scoring through someone's b/b. We also have an area around the goal, maybe 1-2m radius, where you're not allowed to shoot.

This way, both players can play out of goal, and it's still pretty easy to mess up an open-goal tap-in from close range.

we quite often just use a cone for 2 v 2.

Cone is king for 2v2

bottle-polo > life

I used to like the cone, but found it really discourages open shots. And without a no-shoot-zone the game is about out-dribbling your opponent and riding the ball to two-inches away and 'shooting'.

That's still a good strategy with the mini-goal, but it feels more like normal polo because you have a better chance of scoring mid-to-long-range shots.

Or just hit the bottle with your open shot.

This is awesome when it happens. But in reality you just hit the back fence/wall a million times.

And then lose possession.

If the weather looks nice and I can find a partner, I'm in too.
