Hey, all y'all! After talking with some people, I think it would be good practice to open the other, crappier court to the newbies, novices, and uncoordinated such as myself. That way we might actually be able to hit the ball, possibly score some goals...you know...the fun and confidence-boosting stuff. It would be cool if we could get a game full of newbies, novices, and uncoordinated so as not to bore the vets who dominate the ball. That means at least six of you need to support this.

So, everyone who is new to polo, sucks at polo, wants to try polo, etc., let me know if this is something you would like to start doing on polo nights by simply replying to this post or by showing up. If not, I'll just steal someone's polo bike and play, pathetically, by my lonesome.

Big time.

The other court is always open to whoever wants to play, practice, or otherwise just hit a ball around. For a few weeks we had a lot of gals come out and play full games on that court, but I haven't seen that happen in the past 3 weeks or so.

I would love to see both courts full every time we play.

In noob games I've played in its been helpful to have one experienced player on each team. Seems to keep things more focused. Plus that way you only need 4 new players at a time.

I have never played. I have made my own mallet, and I would not even mind getting smoked by the pro's. over and over until I get a clue... but for the now, I work on wednesday and on sunday and my insurance hasn't kicked in. (I am pouting, right now)

If anyone does anything, newb or otherwise, on any other days, I would like to know..

I'm up for it, although I haven't been around for about 2 weeks. Work and a new apartment have sucked all of my time.
