There's been some tension brewing for a long time in our club, and we managed fine for years while it simmered. But recent events showed that it's ready people. Time to eat our soup! It's hot and it's spicy.

More precisely there's a feud between two of our most veteran players. Pillars of our community.
The kind of stuff that historically ends with a schism, a war or at least a few heads chopped. But I believe we can correct course before we're left with ruins to rebuild on. Coincidentally we just elected a new committee and new energy is flowing. I am proposing we capitalize on this.

Both of these players have as fantastic a personality as powerful a style on court. Their moves branded our club and their energy fuelled many an afternoon of great polo. Unfortunately, they are probably as stubborn as a barren of mules. To the point where the club is considering disciplinary measures.

But despite the venom, we love them and I for one would be mourning their loss or departure. I propose to these individuals a formal intervention. A club, a room, and civil talks until the conflict is resolved.

You two - I am sure you are reading this - we are here for you. We may refuse to take sides on your petty conflicts but we will also refuse to abandon you. And it is now clear both of you feel helpless, a victim of circumstances and an insufferable foe. But you willing, we are ready to help.

So I am calling for some support below. Show some love and support, we'll be a better club at the end of the day.

Note on result collection:

Every captain has received an invite via email to the League XV google sheet. Captains are responsible for entering the results of the games in the Fixture tab of the sheet.

At the end of each month/round, the scores will be locked in. Scores that are not entered by then will be considered draws.

At the end of the league, a social will be organized where we will:
1 - Announce and celebrate the winners
2- Give patches
3- Collectively vote for the Most Improved title.

We are looking forward to a fantastic winter season of Hardcourt Bike Polo!
Adam, Chukker, Dany

Important: All edits are visible and traceable. So be civil: disputes should be resolved amicably between captains. There is a comments section too where you can resolve these conflicts.

@JonoMarshall that is some serious miscommunication then, as the date was chosen right after you filled it. We don’t have a lot of availability so getting scheduled far in advance is a must for TTTs. I’ll reach out to all players of the team in the future, instead of a single player.

PS- the doodle is non-binding, it’s there to see people’s availability and find a date before schedules are filled.
Also, I am not pissed. :D

@SteadyCam, what are the reasons? This is a date that all 3 of you marked as available in the planner I shared and I confirmed later with Tony.

Tomorrow @Agnes ?

No polo last Thursday, none last Sunday (yesterday). I am really struggling with the organization on forums and WhatsApp groups.
Can’t we get the club as a whole to get organized so we have the regular sessions happening no matter what?

It’s surprising to have only one for a Sunday.... is it going on though?

Dany will check it out @11am

I still don’t understand why Sunday polo is still a weekly debate. 💩💩💩

Dany - i’m game

Gorgeous day out here, but solo polo without a ball is only fun so long... 😄

I don’t care how many will show up, if it’s not pouring rain I’ll be there at 11am.
Word.
