Games will start at 9.30 am sharp (also the prelim-tournament will
start at that time since 40 teams have now registered for that,
registration is closed but you can put yourself on a waiting list).
Exact playing schedule will be released one week befor the tourney
starts. For the games itself: no excuse for being late! Check rule no.
3.4!

fixed bikes: German traffic law does not recognize fixed gear as a
break, you should have at least one hand break. If the cops stop you
without brake they can fine you with up to 80 euros, depending on the
cops' mood and your negotiation skills. Best thing to do: talk to them
in English and tell them you're from the States and that this is not a
bike but technically sports gear...

balls: tournament ball will be franklin super high density AGS (the
one without liquid was no longer available, so we just drilled a
little hole and released the liquid...) if it does get too hot we do
have a freezer to keep'em cool.

Court sizes:

court 1: asphalt 40 x 20m (130ft x 65ft)

court 2: concrete 40x20m (130ft x 65ft)

court 3: asphalt 32x15m (105ft x 50 ft)

2 pick up courts: asphalt 32x12m (105ft x 40ft)

Refs: we want experienced polo players as refs, so if you think you
are a good ref, know the rules and make sure to enforce them, we would
love to receive an email from you letting us know you will support us.
Free food and drinks and an extra shirt will be for refs and the best
refs will be awarded with some cool prices.

money: if you haven't paid your registration fee, please do so until
6th of August, 60 euros per team.(paypal to stefanlech@gmx.de) After
that you can only pay in cash and it will be 90 euros!


first ref meeting will be on wednesday august 11th 8pm on that
beautiful rooftop with some beers and a bbq.
