Labor Day Weekend Polo BBQ

Submitted by danya on July 25, 2010 - 8:16pm

Friday, September 3, 2010 - Monday, September 6, 2010

Just because we can, LA is welcoming all neighboring clubs to come visit us for Labor Day weekend.
It's a holiday, why not play polo together?
Come out for the weekend, or just for a day. We'll play our regular Friday night games from 6-11p.m. as well as our Sunday afternoon games from 3- 9 p.m. If there's enough interest, we'll play Saturday afternoon as well.
Let us know when you'll be in town, and if you'll need a place to stay.

There's a loaner bike here for you anyways, I assure you! When do you arrive? Also, check our website labikepolo.org for (somewhat) up to date information about when and where we play. Feel free to email me or one of the other LA people if you need anything.

Hello gang, just thought I'd drop in and let you guys know a little about what to expect this weekend. First, we're really happy to have everyone over. Second, because we are expecting a larger than normal crowd, we're gonna structure the weekend a little, even though it is only gonna be just random pickup games. And perhaps maybe some grudge matches.

*Timed Games*

Games will be timed to 10-12 minutes. If there is a tie it goes to sudden death, with no re-joust. We will however, allow unlimited scoring in each game, so everybody gets the same amount of time on the court.

*Labeled Mallets*

We'll have white hockey tape on hand to put your name on your mallet, to expedite the starts of the matches. If you're not around when your name is called over the Megaphone, you will be subbed out automatically. We will announce on-deck games in advance.

*BBQ and POTLUCK*

Everyone is encouraged to bring a little something to this. Meat, Charcoal, Veggie Stuff, Dessert, whatever you got.
We're not officially doing food on Friday nite, but there are some great Pizzerias and Mexican Food joints close by.
Saturday and Sunday we'll grill all day. On Monday the rink will be in use by the Hockey League we share it with.

If anyone has any questions, feel free to hit up lil Sarah, her email is sarah dot danya at gmail dot com.

Jinna at Thomas Bikes San Diego(hurray!) will be joining us along with a bunch more SD players. She will be bringing extra tubes and patch kits, but i recommend everyone make sure to bring every bike accessory you got lying around. sharing is caring guys and what ever can make the game run a lot smoother, the better!
extra ski poles? some gas pipe? tape, tires, tubes, cables, anything. hell even if you got a loaner bike to bring along.
and if you got a first aid kit, bring that too.

this is gonna be a long weekend, so come prepared! see you on the courts!
