Principle of the tourney and gifts
It's easy: No gift …. NO POLO
Each team brings a gift for another one. So each team will receive a gift from another one.
(Your gift has to be signed => « from 'team name' »).Keep in mind that a team is composed of 3 players, it's always hard to divide 1 item between 3 persons.
At the end, each team gets to pick one of the gifts under our Polo Christmas tree.

Hi Guys!
Looking for flights and almost sure that I will flight to Paris. What is the best way to get to Rouen?
Anyone coming from paris as well?
Hey man, easiest way is to take the RER from the airport to the Saint Lazare train station, and there you'll catch a train going to Rouen. (a train going to le Havre will stop in Rouen first)
there'll be a load of players coming from paris, you can contact them on FB:
