Shit. Had soooo much fun yesterday. It was humid as fuck. Everyone was dripping. But we played for a good 4 hours straight.

Great combo of people constanst 3 on 3 action!

Thanks for making yesterday one of those classic "leave my house and return 12 hours later dazed, confused, and happy" summer moments.

/edit oh and it was nice to meet the Canadians at polo. Make sure someone links to their photos they took.

Hear hear! I think that was the most non-stop session I've been to yet. I think it helped that it was actually cooler playing instead of sitting, because moving created a breeze!
I'm glad I remembered to go home and put on sunblock halfway through - otherwise I'd have ended up the same color as my bike :P

After this weather, I'm kind of hoping we get the chance to play one session in some nice cooling rain :evil:

We were thinking some drills tonight, too. Soccer players don't just play practice games all the time to get better, why would polo players be any different?

Ooh! I wanna, esp. since there's no Sunday polo this week, but I don't know if I'll make it or not...

That's OK, I spent a bunch of time on Sunday riding back and forth and shooting on the goal in between games. :lol:

So that's Raymond's boss. I guess we're back to "Because I SAY It is!" being justification for any & all arbitrary rules. :???:

I reiterate, a permit for what? As soon as they can answer that question I'll shut my mouth.
