This is the first year Bike Polo has featured at Messenger Championships in Australia.  Pickup was played late on Wednesday night after Melbourne players arrived in Perth.  Tournament Matches were played in Subiaco on Friday 9am – 12 noon and on Sunday 10am to 12 noon.  Pickup games were also played in the Speed Dome Inline Hockey Rink while Track events continued around the Court.

Bike Polo was a good complement to the ACMC this year, as it did not conflict directly with mainstay messenger events, and it maintained a good balance of structured tournament play and more informal pickup.

This post was  updated over the long weekend with live updates from Perth.
