HELLO HELLO 
RISING STARS IS BACK!
The astrologers are trembling, the constellations are shifting, strange omens have been spotted above Lichtenberg…
Because yes, it’s time again for the most celestial, chaotic, rookie-powered tournament in the universe.
Are you ready for RISING STARS 2026?
The tournament will take place at our sacred temple in Lichtenberg, from Friday May 8th to Sunday May 10th.
A first group of teams will play on Friday, and the remaining teams will begin on Saturday, so don’t worry if you can’t make it on Friday.
You can express your day preference directly in the registration form. 
No official accommodation, but fear not, the galaxy will provide. Ask around and you shall find a couch. Vans? Plenty of space to park your battle wagons 
We’ll take care of breakfast, and for everything else you’re surrounded by grocery stores, even a Sunday-open one, blessed be 
We start Friday morning already, so we can welcome 16 teams. More details on groups, schedules, planetary alignments, etc., will follow after registration. We end on Sunday, well before sunset (if the sun cooperates).
We changed the format 
Each team must have at least 2 rookies (polo birthday after May 2024).
When registering, you must reveal the polo birthdays of all players.
Now pay attention:
In each team, the rookie with the most recent polo birthday will have their goals counted as DOUBLE throughout the tournament.
Yes. Double.
We believe in chaos.
We believe in prophecy.
We believe in rookies scoring bangers from half court.
Your team can collect extra lives depending on who you summon:
- If your team has at least one FLINTA player → +1 life
- If your team has at least two Berlin players → +1 life
- If your team has a third Rookie → +1 life
If a teammate drops out of a team that earned an extra lottery life, you must replace them with someone who would also grant a lottery life.
Registrations close on Valentine’s Day 
, February 14th, 23:59 (Berlin time).
If more than 16 teams join the celestial battle, the following day we shall draw names from the mystical lottery bowl.
The registration fee is 45 € per team, and everyone will get the chance to ref! 
Registration form: https://forms.gle/NMdeDyTqhxjYiE6v8 **(**Please register the full team, TBA is not accepted)
That’s it for now.
Sharpen your mallets.
Charge your star power.
We hope to see you soon 
“To infinity and beyond!”
