We are going to do a lottery! And with the special court building rule again.

That means if one player of your team can help us build up the court on Friday from 10:00 till finished or dismantle it on Monday from the morning till around 15:00 (helping both days is also appreciated of course) your team will get an extra life in the lottery!

  • 4 spots are reserved for the helping hand teams!

  • But make 100% sure the player is reliable and really comes on time (Not Polotime :wink: ) and won´t cancle, otherwise the waiting list gets your spot. So better make a wise decision!!

Thank you in advance for helping! :rose: :hibiscus: :hyacinth:

Food:

We´ll provide breakfast on both days. Either on Saturday or Sunday somone from CPG will cook something delicious for us. So please bring your own cuttlery, to reduce unnecessary waste. On the other day you will get a voucher for 1x meal for “Flying kitchen” vegan food truck from us. In case Flying kitchen won´t be there we´ll work on a different solution!


Sleeping:

Sadly we can´t host you privately, and want to ask you to organize it yourself! There are a lot of Airbnb in Graz.
We are really sorry, but you know we are a small city club…


Location:

As always the tournament will take place in “Volksgarten”, a public park in Graz. On the same weekend there probably is Schlagergarten festival aswell. So a lot of spectators and music all day!

Volksgarten is a so called “protected Zone” by the police. That means they are allowed to check your ID without a reason, check if you have drugs or illegal stuff. So please don´t take anything illegal to volksgarten and always have an ID card with you. And riding your bike in volksgarten is illegal too… ACAB

  • On Sunday you get a voucher for a meal at “Flying Kitchen” Food Truck. It´s in Volksgarten next to the court. Please bring your own bowl and cutlery aswell! (or bring 5€ as a deposit. you´ll get it back when you return the bowl/cutlery.) But they would prefer if you bring your own stuff because they don´t have that many and a lot of people are expected due to “Schalgergarten”…


LOCATION:

Volksgarten is a protected Zone by the police. That means they are allowed to check your ID without a reason, check if you have drugs or illegal stuff. So please don´t take illegal stuff to volksgarten and always have an ID card with you. And riding your bike in volksgarten is illegal too… ACAB

NEVER leave anything outside the players area!!! People will take your stuff and then see your mallet dancing in the crowd.

Court building from 9:30. When we are done, we play pickups.

Saturday:

Round Robin. Morning group starts at 8:15, Afternoon group at 13:15. Please be on Time!

Sunday:

First games start at 8:15. Be on time aswell ;)
There is “Schlagergarten” Festival in Volksgarten. So music all day and a lot of spectators.
I think we´ll finish around 19:00 Polotime

Monday:

Dismantling the court and chill.


I can´t wait to see you all!!
