Charleston Bicycle Polo
Idea for our back court problem:
in this photo of cherri, there is an orange netting, would it be possible for us to use somewhat of the same thing? it's easily portable and doesn't weigh much.. I think it would work.

EDIT: also do you think it is possible for us to possibly hold a similar tournament here in Charleston as did Savannah? if we can block off and make multiple courts in the bus shed? just a thought.

I doubt we could have it at the Bus Shed, also, it runs all day, thus the play would be limited to night games, however, I am thinking of other venues that may allow us to rent for cheap as a "Bike Friendly" thing to do, since that always makes businesses look good. Namely, I was thinking of the Navy Yard. If we could rent out one of the warehouses, as they do for KK, we would have a kick ass place to play, that is covered, and the floors wouldnt get fucked by pedal bites and the like, the only problem I can forsee is price, but that can be worked out, hopefully.
In this scenerio, we could run multiple courts, and would need alot of interest.
I say start planning now and do it in Late July or Early August.

I honestly don't think price would be that much of an issue if we had enough interest in people playing.. we could ask for a dollar amount donation from each squad that attends.. to make the rent..
When do you all play usually, my girlfriend and I both play and will probably have our bikes with us. we should be down there mid july.
