Sunday Oct 11 Polo at the New Court in Tempe

9 showed up to break in the new court that Joe Ramus found at his apartment complex. It is pushed way back in "No Mans" land between the freeway and the canal. Lots of parking, an extra wide court with no nets or obstructions of any kind. Only problem is, it has no lights. We will consider this a work in progress.

As it stands right now, pick up games Sundays at 1pm. Baseline and Hardy in Tempe.

Wed. Oct. 7th 2009 Wet grass and new players make it happen

9players tonight. 5 on 4 makes everyone step up and contribute. 4 games played, and everyone a close call. The last game went to 15 for the win.

Steve came to play for the second time, and in no time will be very good. Riding a bike with one hand and swinging a mallot with the other, takes a bit to accomplish. Once you figure it out, great fun follows.

Team#1 Mailman Jay, MiniMike, AJ and Me.

Team#2 Mike T., Tommy, Jim P., Adam and Steve.

Jacob a speedy recovery(a cold) and Tracy missed you. Troy out, sick too. Matt, too much work.

Rumor has it that 6 of us are going to Columbia Mo. Nov. 7th for the Midwest Polo Tourney. The list of teams going is long. I keep you up to date.

We are looking for our own place to play hardcourt polo. One that is legit and works for us. The City Parks Dept. would rather build usafe skate and water parks for its community, than a well controlled multi purpose roller rink. Old tennis courts work too, but No Bikes signs litter that idea too. The fight continues!

Las Vegas Interbike Polo Tourney Sept. 2009

MiniMike, Mailman Jay and Troy beat 5 other teams to win this event. The last game they played for the overall win was 5/0. Domination by grass roots again.
Justin, Mike T. and I played too.

Wednesday Sept 9th 2009 Welcome to Our World

Eleven showed up tonight to play some grass polo. For some reason the 3 games played were extra intense and aggressive. It was like a pot o gold was sitting waiting for the team with the most wins. Shouldering, slide outs, speed, falling(Me), were all part of last nights games. Most were so tired after, that the Armidillo Grill had no polo patrons after. No beer . WTF !!

All contributed. Dustin scored, and feelin his oats, played all three games lookin for more.

Team 1: Mailman Jay, Piranha#1and#2, MiniMike and Me. (Won 2 out of three games)

Team 2: Troy, Mike T., Tracy, Adam, Matt and Dustin.

Fun stuff. See you on the Hardcourt Monday eve at 8 PM
