Re: boats

I asked UCD if we could use the XP3s from the pool, I made sure to say how safely they'd be transported and stored and that they'd only be used indoors and briefly thought we were on to a winner, but unfortunately when the idea was brought before "upper management" the answer was no.

The boats are owned by the pool and are covered by the pool's insurance which ceases to cover them once they're removed from the premises. Maybe there'll be a way around this at a later stage, but for now the pool want to keep the boats indoors to preserve them for as long as possible.

Diarmuid's working on a plan B for borrowing a set now, we'll update once we have any definite news.

Random Question, will we have to wear swim hats in the pool? Or are helmets enough?

..of course, you should wear it because it's got UCD on it.

If not then you need to get yourself a new hat

UPDATE

Quote
Polo:
Tournament style competition. Each team shall play 3 games in the opening group stages. Points are received on a Win(W), Draw(D) and Lose(L) basis. Based on a teams results from the opening rounds, a team shall progress or be eliminated. In the event of a points tie, goal difference shall settle things. the scoring system is shown in the Captains pack.

Looks to me like pools of 4 teams so, which means that the winners of the groups would all go on to semi finals.
