Tourney Recap

polo players
Again thanks to all the folks who put this tourney together. I especially want to thank everyone who traveled to play. I, and I am sure all of Boston Bike Polo, was humbled by the show of comraderie from NYC, class from Ottawa and belligerence from RVA.

With a random seed of 16 teams in a double elimination bracket, each city had a team in the final four. The Coque Bloquers went undefeated. We held a playoff game to establish third place.

1st Place: Ottawa – Coque Bloquers (Alexis, Robbie, Jen)

2nd Place: Boston – Judas and the Betrayers (Nick, Tyler, Jav)

Turd Place: RVA – Steel Horsemen (Dennis, Sean, Ian)

Saturday: People should get there early (10am?) for warm up games and to figure out last minute teams. Registration starts at 11am. Tournament starts at noon. It’ll be over when it’s over.

That night we’ll bbq at Aaron’s shop in Dorchester.

Sunday:Relaxed pick-up games and grudge matches all day.

Friday night, looking for some polo?

BBQ/beers at Jon & Kat’s. Polo courts perfect for some quick games are nearby if anyone gets in the mood. We’ll have veggies and fruit and deserts and some various salads, but if you want meat you should bring that yourself.  Email me for address/directions.
