Fuck yeah Whisperers!

Shit name though.

I kept referring to them as "The Wispas" for some reason. I was really hoping for a Wispas vs Toffees confectionary showdown final.

Flickr group here if anyone wants to relive the magic.

Great day. Big thanks to Max, James and the Cardiff guys for helping out with reffing and format. I've already gone from thinking "fuck this shit, never again" to planning how we can make next year's event bigger and better.

Three motherfucker. We are coming for number one.

Are you actually coming to play, or is that just a figure of speech?

I'm gonna start making up some spoke cards with team names today. If any of the nameless teams have a sudden brainwave post your handle up here. A quick Google reveals that "Teenage PoLobotomy" appears to still be free...

DublinKevin, there'll be barriers round the court. The area is big enough for two tennis court sized play areas.

The tournament is being held as part of Bristol Cycle Festival so there's lots of other stuff going on that weekend too.

If you want to register just drop me an email with your team name to bristoltrailsgroup@gmail.com.

We're organising what may well be a full-blown tourney in Bristol this September, and I'd be really interested in hearing any advice or experience y'all might have.

The plan at the moment is to go with a custom-made court somewhere really spectator-friendly and central (like Lloyds amphitheatre), have proper sponsors, nice prizes, a swanky after-party and tick all the boxes as far as insurance, H&S etc. go.

The alternative is to hold it at our usual venue, a ratty old skatepark 5 minutes from the city, with crap spectator potential, glass and dogshit-strewn courts, prizes from Asda, and if anyone hurts themselves we roll the body into the river. Thoughts?
