Cambridge Tourney June 5th 2011
All teams are welcome. Will it see the debut of Ill Pigs, Drill Collins or my as-yet-unnamed team? The date just changed so now it’s a Sunday, so I’ll be there, in some kind of team. That much I can … Continue reading

2 v 2 Tournament review
A seriously lovely day was had by all on Sunday, at Birmingham’s first 2 v 2 tournament. Most of the participants arrived in a timely manner and set about marking out goals and tap-out points, fabricating barriers and organising the … Continue reading
2 v 2 Tournament
Starting at 10am (prompt!), we’re expecting 6-7 teams to battle it out over a round-robin format. The idea is to put a bit more emphasis on playing to win, building partnerships between players and letting us experiment with the nuts … Continue reading
Greifmasters Final: Switzerland v France
The first 15 minutes set the tone for a close game, with the score creeping up to 3-2 to the Swiss. Then a full Equipe lineup come on, pressing for an advantage, playing 3-up. First Manu, then Mario score in … Continue reading

England v Rest of Europe (Griefmasters 2)
As my playing was so evidently not up to scratch, I focussed instead on making notes of our games. I only took photos of one game (which I sat out of) though, and the quality is pretty poor. Sorry. England 8 - … Continue reading
Greifmasters 2 Overview
The weekend got off to a bad start when both myself and the Manchester contingent got stung for £90 excess baggage (each) by overzealous check-in staff. I was worried it would put a dampener on the whole three days, but … Continue reading
Cambridge Indoor Open, 26th/27th Feb 2011
I must be the fastest blogger in the West (Midlands). This http://www.lfgss.com/thread58349.html#post1911632 was only announced an hour ago! The format hasn’t been announced yet, but all of the crucial details are in place, including what is apparently a very sweet indoor court … Continue reading
Seeding Results
Results are in – thanks to everyone who voted. What’s really encouraging is that there are 13 people on the list, and only one or two of them aren’t regulars! So, lfgss.com usernames as usual: 1. danwentskiing (162) 2. 4ndy (149) 3. … Continue reading
Cambridge’s indoor court coming along nicely…
Apparently they are nearing completion on this, the UK’s first (I think) indoor polo court. From obsessively trawling lfgss.com, I gather they’ve rented a vacant warehouse at a discount rate for a few months before it is permanently occupied. Their timing is … Continue reading
