Official teamlist is evolving daily on linktr.ee/montpellierbikepolo

Hey there, Bordeaux is telling me that some teams dropped the tournament to go to Montpellier when I thought it wasn’t the case. I know it’s not your fault for organizing this the same time as BDX (it happens, no problem with that), but I think it would be normal for Montpellier to refuse the teams (or players that changed teams) that were already registered in BDX. Let us know.

And this also :

EDIT : Jason posted about the club’s decision on BDX thread, thank you guys. Once again, not blaming MTP, only the people who dropped a tournament to go to another, not cool.
