LINKS FOR HOUSING
fìrst two hostels are close to Mestre train Station, the last one is close to our court
Venezia-Mestre bike polo club will host the event at Zelarino court, regular size, outdoor, great surface grip, metal sides with perfect rebound and round corners.
The max number of teams is going to be 16, if we get more team subscribed by the first day of April we will evaluate if rise the number to 18.
Consider that April 25 is a working holiday in Italy so if you are willing to stay around also on Monday is basically going to be party time all day.
On Saturday, or Sunday, depending on the weather and maybe both days, we planned to welcome everybody on what we call a ‘Bacaro-tour’ in the city of Venice, it’s a tour of many of the traditional ‘pubs’ of the island done by walking (biking iside the island city center is strictly forbidden🚫), each stop you are supposed to have a drink accompanied by a small bite of traditional food (cicchetto) in a way really similar to Spanish tapas.
Information about housing and other stuff will come as soon as we arrange something with local hostels-hotels.
Send as email to vemebikepolo@gmail.com with:
-team name
-players names (all of them, teams with TBAs will be moved to the waiting list if the numbers of subscribed teams goes over 16)
Thanks
