134 Days Later


Nick “The Shouty One” last won a session on the last day of the 2015/6 winter season. Now that’s a long, long time ago. He eventually got his well deserved win last Sunday. Well done Nick. Watch out peeps. Now he’s got back into winning ways there could be no stopping him. In other news Mr Roger (under no pressure) scored an own goal.

WOW...FOUR YEARS

Four years ago this week.  Dean “Double Dean”,  Nick “The Shouty One”,  Kol “The Statsman” and Mark “The Absentee played the first ever session of hardcourt bicycle polo in Hull. It was cold. It was very very wet. We laughed a lot. We were full of whisky and we weren’t very good. It was possibly the best day of bicycle polo ever.

Four years later we are still doing it and today the sun will be shining.

BRING ON THE POLO

Wellington Lane Hardcourt HU3 1SQ 2pm. Everyone welcome

Back To Number One

An excellent session last week saw Sir Richard Long Mallard comfortably win the day by seven clear points. Cracking goals and some very good passing moves ensured that not only did he win the day but also regained his #1 ranking. 

The Hard Court Sheriff, played a great all round game with some great shots and marvellous defensive moves. He even passed the ball too. He put in his best performance of the season so far to come second on the day. Well done Paul

Young Jack hacked his way to third place on the day although he did score some incredible goals.

Nick was the top scorer on the day with 18 goals although this could have been more as in one game he had at least 18 shots on target before he eventually got one in. 

Kol didn’t do very well on the day and stumbled into 5th spot. He scored a couple of impressive goals but his highlight of the day was  completing the “Four Corners & The Spot” in an incredible 53 seconds. The first player to get under the one minute mark.

Mr Roger only got to sing “I am the on one only” nine times but when he does sing it, he sings it well.

Dean came along and did a bit of reffing which is always amusing.


Oh, Carl “The Iceman” was there too.

HANDS UP FOR MARKUS


HE CAME, HE SAW, HE FELL FLAT ON HIS BACK

It was great to see Markus joining us again last Sunday but it wasn’t his excellent skills, his not losing a single game or his almost scoring all the goals that impressed us on the day. It was his most excellent celebration after scoring a cracking goal. Riding back to his own half with hands raised triumphantly in the air and a victorious smile on his face things soon started to go wrong. His front wheel started lifting. Slowly at first but then faster and faster until eventually (unable to unclip in time) he found himself flat on his back on the center spot with his bicycle still attached. An excellent celebration Markus and well done on a convincing win.


FOUR CORNERS AND THE SPOT

Last week saw the second instalment of our new Four Corners and the Spot game. Kol went first (to show how it’s done) but that didn’t go too well and he got his worst time so far. Markus put in a good performance and got a best time of 1:03 just 1 second behind the current fastest time of 1:02. David  put in a good 2nd round time of 1:15 to take 2nd place on the day. PC Paul couldn’t beat his first round time of  1:17 and finished 3rd.
Now then Young Jack just hasn’t got the hang of this game yet. Hacking and wafting will not do the job young man. He got an incredible 2:34 in his first round. We don’t have a time for his 2nd round as we think he is still going ...and going ......and going .......and going.

THE SUMMER SEASON STARTS TODAY

You all remember summer don’t you. You know.... That time of year when there is a 95% chance of rain, occasional snow storms, definitely some hail and every now and again the sky gets all weird and catches fire. The big yellow burning blob can sometimes get so hot that we may have to take a layer or two off. 

This is a very rare event and not may people have seen it. So if you’ve not witnessed it before please... DO NOT LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE BURNING YELLOW BLOB IN THE SKY. No it won’t damage your eyes or anything like that but while you are mesmerised by the phenomenon someone will steal the ball off you and score a goal. Helicopters are distracting too so don’t look at them either .... oh and kids on them silly little motorbikes and Young Jack (he’s very distracting) pay no attention to him.

LET’S PLAY POLO
WELLINGTON LANE HARDCOURT, HU3 1SQ. 2PM
EVERYONE WELCOME.

We're Getting Filmed Today

Well I do believe that the big yellow burning thing in the sky will be making an appearance this afternoon. That should provide some good lighting for the film crew who will be joining us today. So you all better polish your mallets, wash your mouths out and be on your best behaviour. LET'S PLAY POLO. smile emoticon
