we aim to be done 15:30 ish that Sunday so that everyone will have enough time to get home.

Can you update the players list and waiting list please? I know that some players withdrew their registration (e.g. Max) and would love to know if I ended up in the players list already.

hey hey, everyone. we had a few more cancellations and we are about to exhaust our waiting list. so at this point i’d say, if you know someone that is interested in playing in Dresden coming weekend, let them know, bring them along.
Worst case, a little more polo for everyone else.

i will post some general information and also information on where to sleep for the people that expressed need for housing soon. Also i will generate and post the teams for the weekend in a few days

we encourage funny team names. Teams that don’t specify a team name will be given a bird related team name on Saturday.

looking forward to you all!

Hey!
will someone be selling Balls for autumn/winter?
We will need some extra for the tournament in Gießen :)

See you friday!

Hello Polo Friends,

Almost time (once again) and we just want to provide some more information about everything you need to know about the tournament.

Housing: We can provide housing for everyone who indicated a need for it during registration or after. More information on where you’ll be sleeping and whom to contact soon!

Court: The court is in the city center with plenty of options around for all your needs. However, it doesn’t offer much shade, so please bring everything you need for a day in the sun. The location in the city center also means that there will be people passing by constantly; we might even attract a crowd, so be mindful of your belongings. There won’t be electricity available at the court, so make sure your phone is charged or bring a power bank with you.

We will provide breakfast and lunch. Please remember to bring your own utensils, a plate, and a cup :blush:. Games will be separated into morning and afternoon groups to ensure everyone gets a good few games in and then has the rest of the morning or afternoon free to explore the city or hang out.

The teams will be published sometime during the week before the tournament, probably just the day before. I’ll try to communicate all the important information here; and parallel via this Telegram group

We strive to make this an inclusive, safe, and fun polo event for everyone. Your concerns are important to us. Please get in touch with any questions.

And as always,

Love, peace, polo

Olli

yes, I’m coming.

housing/sleeping arrangements:

Some of you already know where you staying. Everyone else that wants housing please get in contact with either Carsten or Simon over Telegram for address, what to bring (probably just sleeping bag, camping mattress, towel) and when to meet. Or just talk to them at the court :blush:.

Their respective numbers/telegram handles and general area is:

Name Contact Area
Simon +49 178 1807512 Neustadt
Carsten Telegram: Contact @redheadcmi TU-Dresden

Already quite full but ready as back up options are:

Name Contact Area
Olli Telegram: Contact @Basilikumple Neustadt
Robin/Eva - Neustadt

Some not so important stuff:
Friday evening, we will build the court and helping hands are more than welcome! After that we want to get some knife fights going. Might be at a different location, we will let you know. Small party with music and BYOB at Ollis place or somewhere else is also on the table!
Other things to do:
The Neustadt Art festival is going on this weekend, it’s mostly free and all over Neustadt. Check out the program here: Programm – Neustadt Art Festival
