POLO POLO POLO POLO!
Damn what a night.
Tonight's grass game was one of the funnest I have been to yet. The group of guys were killing it!
Where do I start? As usual Chuck was slaying the dragon, but I must say I had his number a few times...I am coming to get you up chuck. Dan and Stefano were at there usual best, these guys are some of the best all rounders out there. These guys have awesome defense and great handling skills.
Earl and I had a few run in's with each other tonight but were harmless, just some good ol' Polo. Todd had some amazing game ending goals just when they were needed the most, and Joe was up too his usual ninja self. That guy will come out of no where and take the ball down field before you even realized you were still on a bike.
Day after tomorrow is coming up! HARDCOURT THURSDAY!!!!!!!!
My favorite time of the year. I am not sure if there will be a big showing but regardless it is always a blast.
I noticed the Hardcourt is really helping my grass game in ways I didnt think it would. Hardcourt makes you see the court and diagnose the best play, tonight I noticed that transfering over to the grass. I have to thank Colin from PC for that though he has really helped me and I think the rest of us out on a few tricks to help play the game harder and smarter.
I hope to see some new faces out on Thursday, it is always a good time.

Sorry for the late post today.
Grass tonight! 7:30 Liberty Park central field (north side of the pond). I think the East side of the road is still closed you will need to park on the West side and ride over.
Like I have always said....be there or be stupid.

Tourney time
Well it looks like I am all in now ladies and gents. July 10th Glenwood Springs, CO grass polo tournament.
Tourney Format- Round Robin starting at 10AM to 2PM with a break till 6PM with the Bracket play till 10 under the lights.
Polo “Pill” used – is the small soccer size
Round Robin is games to 3 win by 2 and Bracket play is games to 5 win by 2 as I understand it.
Goals are alleged to be 5’ wide with goalies allowed.
Camping is available at host houses or local camp area, don’t know what the motel scene is like.
It appears to be a 6 hour drive from Salt Lake.
Teams allowed in the tourney are 9 and we have a spot saved for us, team size is 4 on the field and one alternate (if available) if there is enough interest for two teams from our club, they said they would allow the cap number to change.
There is a $15 entry fee per team.
It's go time fools! Time to start working on some upper body and core, and if possible watch what I eat a little better...and maybe what I drink HA!
If anyone else may be interested let's get together and talk about it.

Great games tonight!
Smaller group this time Colin+Dan+Stefano+Chuck+me= a lethal dose of Polo. We got in about 3 hours tonight of 3 on 2.
Chuck was utilizing the scoop shot to the fullest. We were getting better at passing at setting up goals rather than the free for all that sometimes comes about. I learned that a 31" mallet maybe a better shot when I am by myself but does not bode too well in game situations I need to re adjust and make it a few inches longer.
We need some more players, if you read this every once in a while and feel like it might be fun to come out and play...DO! One of the greatest games I have ever played. Polo utilizes so many different aspects of cycling so if you feel like your roadie compatriots will make fun of you for swinging a mallet screw em this game is not just for fixie hipsters.
3,2,1 POLO!!!!!!!!!!!
