IMPORTANT INFO
FORMAT The tournament is organized in the ABC format, with fixed teams for the entire weekend. The teams will be drawn by 3City Bike Polo.
LOCATION : The court will be built on an old multifunctional asphalt, so expect rough surface with great friction, even in case it rains (we pray it won’t).
The address is ul. Piotra Michałowskiego 50, Google Maps pin: https://maps.app.goo.gl/K2MHJy6NHoG3z4V39. The place is on the verge of the Tricity Landscape park, there is a shop and a bakery nearby. It’s just around 15 minutes by polobike from the Gdańsk-Wrzeszcz train station. If you travel by plane there it’s even closer suburban railway station Gdańsk Strzyża. There is free of charge parking area next to the court too.
We tried hard to keep the size of the court according to EHBA rules, but in the end the longest side will be 33 metres, which means it will be slightly smaller than it should be. It’s our first outdoor tournament, next time we’ll improve!
ACCOMMODATION : Some of 3cbp players can host some polo players on a couch or on the floor. If you’re happy with such conditions, please drop us an email at luta.cup@gmail.com, and we’ll try to arrange something for you. Otherwise, you can search for a hostel nearby the field – there is plenty to choose from.
FOOD : Local “Food not bombs” group will prepare something to eat for us. Additionally, in the vicinity you’ll find:
-
Żabka – a small shop with refreshments, drinks, alcohol and coffee open till late in the evening
-
A great local bakery that’s named Parisian (Paryska), but mysteriously doesn’t sell croissants or French breads
-
Lewiatan - a local “oldschool” supermarket
DRINKING : For our foreign visitors: please note that drinking in public is prohibited in Poland and might be fined if discovered by a policeman. Yes, beer counts as drinking, too :(
SIDE ACTIVITIES :
-
Alleycat: For those of you who will already be there on Friday, we will prepare a small race (there will be a separate category for polobikes) -
Afterparties: on Friday and Saturday night we will organize bonfires and afterparties -
Pick-up court – last but not least – we have enough space to add a small pick-up court, so that your muscle won’t cool down in between the games.
WHY IS IT 3CITY INSTEAD OF GDAŃSK?
Tricity consists of Gdańsk, Sopot and Gdynia - we have players from all the cities. That’s why it’s 3 city bike polo 
That’s why we’ve increased the number of teams to 16 
. This means instead of 42 people we can now accommodate 48 – but this is definitely, 100% the maximum!
Especially the one on Friday 
and happy to see some old faces playing together too. yummy yummy.
