A lesson on mallets and wheels

One of the more important rules in polo is “like contact only” so mallet on mallet, bike on bike, body on body are ok, but not mallet on bike… Occasionally players get carried away and wheels get whacked, usually with no serious consequences, but every now and then there is nice reminder of why we have the rules.

Last Sunday a ball went flying and landed in Woric’s wheel, Pete thought he’d like to remove it. End result?

Edgy Ikea

Ikea now has complete edges! While they need a little bit of work, to stop part of it falling over in gale force winds, it has greatly improved gameplay.

Ikea - Now with edges!

Despite the viscous winds and eventual rain, around 15 people turned up to play last night. Wind only impacted play slightly (ikea is fairly well sheltered). However, play only lasted a few games with rain, partly because everyone was wet (and started to get cold) and and partly because it was dark.
