URGENT: Shoreditch Polo Tourney - You must register by July 10th to play!

OK, as of yesterday there was only 1 team properly registered, Zombie RMY.
Please, if you haven't already, email roxy@trixiechix.com to register your team, include all team members names and email addresses.

right now I need 2 things:

-teams to register, email roxy@trixiechix.com to do so
-volunteers that have their feet in London

This will be the 1st Shoreditch Invitational. So perhaps teams could represent their 'hoods. Peckham, Chelsea, Paris, holla back y'all!!!

1. If you are entering a team, great to put it here to let others know, BUT you need to email me with your team name, team mates, and all 3 email addresses. This is so I can get saddles (and your choice to Brooks in time). AFTER you send me email addresses I can send out saddle request forms. THESE ARE DUE JULY 10th!!!!!! Brooks closes in August (nice for their workers) So I need to get our shipment order to them ASAP. PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!!!! If you haven't emailed me with the following, you haven't registered.

2. We have a team from Paris and 2 teams from Germany coming so far. I need to have places for these people to stay. If you can offer your couch, please EMAIL me. I want to try to keep teams together or close to each other so let me know where you live and how many people you can take.

THANKS!!

At the moment if FRANK doesn't reply to my PM, The Underdogs need one player to join Jonny and myself. No polo skill required as we are going to be a zero to hero story between now and then.

@ Roxy, will mail when we have a third.

um..all I would say is that sounds wonderful and it's been the image in my dreams too but if you have any talent at all in this game (er..Sano?) I would cautiously refer you to the other thread where I am asking about learning over the summer...
Plus my new fixed bike ready this weekend. that's where I am. Not necessarily the greatest asset.

Hi! I'm certainly up for it roxy / mike, need to finalise teammates who can practise Wesside d'yagetmeblud? ANy volunteers lurking?
I have non/semi-bikey friends, but they may not show the required level commitment.
(Hippy, Wayne, and Cornelius enter a team please.. please?)

me and sano both know our way round a mallet. you'll be fine.

i'll be living in bristol so will have to come back for this one, if not too busy chewing straw, drinking scrumpy and saying 'cheers drive' when i get off the bus.

in that case - I'll get practicing. A rather strange team - great trickster, great hillclimber etc... - and me.

One problem might be we won't meet up and work on gelling as a team at any point - I'll be away for up to six weeks before too, kind of returning back for this...

anyway I'm up for it for sure..and in no way offended if you cats back out and go off by yourselves, I think you're selling yourself short..

i want to play, goddamn it, and i want to be wanted. i don't want to be brushed off with the offer of a few cheap poms poms and standing around with hops (lovely though she is) flashing my gusset whenever team BAD get the ball.
