[Niall Finch]

I've booked that weekend off work so yeah I'm gonna go ahead and say hells yeah !

[Diarmuid]

Cad faoi boats?
Will there be some there that we can use or do we have to find a club to borrow some off?

[HelenaC]

so(Niall im looking at you here!) whats the story with this, do we need to register? bring boats? gear? phantom ICU memberships?

have we even got a team with players of similar standards??

so many questions so few answers!!

[Douchier]

I hope we're registered!

Sorry about my tardyness on this one. I've been a bit all-over-the-shoppe in the last week or so.

We are indeed registered ( I hope, I certainly sent in the forms and paid the money).

We'll be making our debut as the much talked about and universally feared UCD Stars

We'll need to borrow what polo gear the club has, we should be able to borrow boats - I'll confirm this.

ICU membership... well, I think that we should get ACTUAL ICU membership. You're supposed to have it for entering all of the competitions across all of the different disciplines. The insurance of events is based on this and it's kind of bent to make the voluntary organisers responsible for any accidents. We're supposed have it for theDCPL too, but I think they got tired of asking. Contact Derv to get membership.

We're entered in DIV.3 (out of 3) which I'm sure will be an exciting and varied affair.

Boom!

[Diarmuid]

sounds beautiful! Hon the Stars...

[Douchier]

Ooh, I forgot to mention. There will be an entry fee of about E16.

Bumber, I know.

It'll be so much polo though, and your standard will rocket with all that practice. It really is well worth it.

[Diarmuid]

16 isn't that bad for 3 days

[Douchier]

Two...but still completely worth it.

Playing on a full-sized pitch is  totally different game and really enjoyable. Five per side, rolling subs and slightly longer matchs. fun times.

[DervM]

Will try pm you guys about it.

[Nuala]

rolling subs

Be warned, if you have the bad luck to be a sub you have to sit on the sidelines rolling continuously till you are dizzy. It's to ensure fairness.

Oh that made me laugh! Bahahahaha!
