<br />
Many of you have been a part of our fundraising efforts.<br />
If you didn't know, we were raising the fund to take 5 ATX gals to Vancouver, BC for the International Todos Chicas Ladies Army Tournament #5.<br />
We went a couple of weekend ago and had an AMAZING time!<br />
The standings of the ladies that traveled are as follows:<br />
<ul>
<li>
<span class="rank">7th</span>
<span class="hide"></span>
<span class="team">Nietzsche's Peaches (chandel. ATX, sara Philly, Jill SEA) (2-way tie)</span></li>
<li>
<span class="rank">9th</span>
<span class="hide"></span>
<span class="team">TEXA$$A$$A$$A$$A$$ (Elise, Jasmine, Maureen ATX) (2-way tie)</span>
</li>
<li>
<span class="rank">20th</span>
<span class="hide"></span>
<span class="team">Binders of Women (Tiffanie CHI, Anne ATX, cara MTL) (3-way tie)</span>
</li>
</ul>
Complete standings for all 27 teams can be found <a href="http://www.followpodium.com/ladiesarmy">here</a> on the Podium website.<br />
Links to pictures, videos, and all you could ever want to know about Ladies Army 5 can be found <a href="https://www.facebook.com/LadiesArmy5">here</a> on the LA5 Facebook page.<br />
<br />
Vancouver is an incredibly beautiful city.<br />
We had the most amazing view of the mountains from the tournament courts. <br />
The cycling infrastructure in Vancouver is superb. I wish Austin would take a few notes.<br />
It was fun biking all over the terribly hilly city, even in the pouring rain at 3am going the wrong direction for 20 minutes (oops).<br />
Despite the fact that it rained all day Sunday, we left with smiles on our faces, love in our hearts, future adventures on the horizon, and a boat load of new friends.<br />
Honestly folks, when is somebody just gonna create Polobook.com...that's what we all use the internet for anyways AMIRITE???<br />
<br />
This probably deserves it's own post but fuggit.<br />
<br />
POLO AT THE BEACH!!!<br />
Polo kids all over Texas went on down to Port Aransas for the 2nd Polo at the Beach Extravaganza.<br />
We played hard and partied harder.<br />
All I have to say is I LOVE TEXAS BIKE POLO!!<br />
David Beck and the San Antonio crew (and everyone else who helped out) put on a stellar tournament.<br />
I'm really proud of Texas Polo and our growth.<br />
Let's keep it up y'all.<br />
<br />
I don't have the complete standings for the tournament, but I think I can muster up the top three teams:<br />
<br />
1. Texas TRILL (Isreal ATX, Drew ATX, Diego HOU)<br />
2. SlayUL8R (Jazzhams ATX, Mulgrave ATX, Miguel, ATX)<br />
3. Serpentine Slasher Squad (Rob ATX, David Beck SA, Alekos HOU)<br />
<br />
I'm really digging the city mash up of teams we had at this tournament.<br />
I hope to see all of you REAL fricken soon.<br />
Oh and pictures from the tournament and debauchery can be seen <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/616175858408205/">here</a> on the event's FB page.<br />
<br />
ONE LAST THING<br />
We've said goodbye to a couple players recently.<br />
Chandel moved back to Toronto =(<br />
Cedar went back to the Pacific Northwest, but he'll be back to pedicab the shit out of ACL in October.<br />
We'll be welcoming Adylle from Houston with open arms in a couple weeks and saying adios to Arty as he ventures back to Wisconsin in July (luckily we still have an entire month to party with that dude before he takes off)<br />
<br />
ONE LAST LAST THING<br />
Our regional qualifier is being held in Denver in June (22nd and 23rd)<br />
Good luck to all the Texas teams traveling for that one...wish I could make it!<br />
<br />

<h5 class="uiStreamMessage userContentWrapper" data-ft="{"type":1,"tn":"K"}">
<span class="messageBody" data-ft="{"type":3}"><span class="userContent"> Below are my suggestions on how to answer all of the questions. Please
take a moment of your time to fill out the survey and tell everyone you
know that supports Austin Texas Bike Polo about it too. If you have
connections to roller derby, hardcourt soccer, unicycle football, etc
please get them to fill it out too. We need all the support we can get
to hopefully make it into this project!<br /> <span style="color: red;"><br /> Which amenity, idea or concept is your favorite and why? *</span><br />
I represent the Austin Texas Bike Polo Social Club. We are an amateur
alternative sports club that plays hardcourt bicycle polo. We support
the re-alignment of the Holly Street wall to open up the space leading
into Metz park. We currently play at the tennis/multi-purpose court and
opening up the park would help us, as well as other amateur alternative
sports clubs (i.e. roller derby, hardcourt soccor, street/roller hockey,
unicycle football) gain more exposure within the community. We talked
to Chris Yanez at the February meeting about our need to either update
our current location or if there were any other options for us available
in the redevelopment. He stated there was a building being considered
for open-air and re-purposing for possibly a roller rink or multi-use,
walled in, hard court surface. If this is the case, it would be a
perfect opportunity to accommodate our club as well as these other clubs
mentioned above. <br /> <br /><span style="color: red;"> What are the strengths of your favorite amenity, idea or concept? *</span><br />
An enclosed, hard court, covered surface would not only provide and
adequate constant use practice space, but could also serve as a special
event location for tournaments, scrimmages, demonstrations, half-time
shows. These events could bring exposure to the park as well as money in
terms of rental fees. We currently rent out an alternative park for our
tournaments, but it would be ideal to have a covered/maintained space
for these events.<br /> <br /><span style="color: red;"> What are the weaknesses of your least favorite amenity, idea or concept? *</span><br />
We are concerned with the projected solution to the current sewage
small permeating Metz Park and community at large. I think it would
benefit everyone if this issue was resolved.<br /> <br /><span style="color: red;"> Which area of the park is most in need of improvement? *</span><br />
It seems the still waters (i.e. lagoon) could use improvement. We
support the projected plan of opening up these waters to create more
water flow.<br /> <br /><span style="color: red;"> What area of the park has the most impact for you and why? *</span><br />
Metz Park and/or the proposed building to be converted impact us the
most. We have played at various parks around the city, but only now have
we found a park where we have developed a good relationship with the
Community Center. We'd like to call this park our home, with adequate
facilities to develop as strong players and as a club, to be able to
compete among other top clubs around the world. We have volunteered with
the community center and are interested in participating more in this
effort and within the community. We are well known among the cycling
community and this will only continue as our club continues to grow.<br /> <br /><span style="color: red;"> What is missing or what issue has not been addressed in the concept? *</span><br /> <br />
The draft master plan did not mention re-purposing the old building
into a multi-use hard court space. As stated earlier, we talked to Chris
Yanez separately who mentioned this space to us.<br /> <br /><span style="color: red;"> Please provide general comments on the preliminary concept.</span><br />
Overall the preliminary concept seems good. We support incorporating
edible plants into the landscape, although we are confused in how this
will work in conjunction with the local community garden.</span></span></h5>

<div class="p1">
So this last Sunday August 6th was rad. San Antonio came up to play with us like they have the last few weekends, we had Wes from North Carolina in town and a brand new player on the court. With next game piles 3 games deep, the play was fun and competitive. Every game I feel like everyone playing had fun. There were fast games and passing games, shooting games and even new people games. A couple weekends ago we had Houston, San Antonio, Dallas and other places im sure im forgetting come and play. Till it rained nonstop at about 7 PM, that was just as much fun with games 4 and 5 piles deep. It makes me really glad to see that though Texas might be far from alot of other places, we keeps it real within the state. It looks like Houston is hosting pickup in College Station this upcoming Sunday August 12th and I hope to see as many people there, if not more. With one of the best courts in central Texas, CS always puts on a good show. All this pickup should also make our Texas Series of small in state 1 day tournaments more fun too, as we all have played against each other. Port Aransas on August 25th is the fist game of that series, with Denton on September 8th, Austin on October 6th and Houston having the final game on November 10th. See you all soon!</div>Little Emperorshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08870056599578849967noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2260443198833909668.post-72866055996301828222012-05-23T18:53:00.003-05:002012-05-23T18:53:53.973-05:00Reflections on the 2012 South East Championship<br />
<div class="p1">
As I sit here with the last of my sunburn fading, I reminiscence on the South East Championships held in Fort Lauderdale a few weeks ago. What started out as a 10 hour ride to Mobile Alabama with fellow club member Rob, ended another 10 hours later after picking up AB on the way to the tournament. While 20 hours in the car can be...... rough, we had plenty to keep us occupied. When we arrived at the pickup courts at about 9, the lights went off as soon as we got our bikes together. Not a strong start, no pickup for us. We ended up meeting the other Texas players at our hotel at the Red Carpet Inn (excellent cheap hotel by the way) and partied at the Beach House where everyone else was Friday Night. </div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
Saturday began somewhat late we though, as we were all in the PM bracket. Arriving at the courts at Noon we figured the AM bracket would be well underway, but was only just beginning. While warming up with some pickup, I was put on my left shoulder and both wrists hard by a wild lefty. I didnt think it was so bad until I realized I had bruised a sunburn the next day. My playing wasnt affected and Edgar Allen Polo won 3 and tied 1 game, no losses. I took it Mucho Easy Saturday night with a grade A farmer tan from the sleveless cut off shirt I had to be cool and wear before donning my teams sweet sweet Camo jerseys.</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
Sunday started much more promptly, but as we had done well, my team had a buy first round. We then proceeded to lose our first game against the all Mobile team, because Brittany is a brick house in goal. Huff and puff as I might, only 1 goal was to be had and Mobile put 3 strong ones in on us. In the loser bracket we did quite well, proceeding to win our next 3 I believe until we faced Danny and Florida Bob's (as I will call him) team, the Funk Buddies. They got us 3 to 4 I believe and it was a hard fought battle. Edgar Allen Polo took home 5th overall right behind my fellow All Texas team Get It God Damn. </div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
The awards ceremony was the single most prizes Ive ever seen given out at a polo tournament and everyone got something. I got a sweet Chunk Qualified Polo Shirt, which is rad as all hell. Rob ended up winning a Mario frame and fork for being the crowds Most Sportsmanship guy, and he deserves the frame. A great time was had by all and I for one am glad I spent 40 hours total in a car to come play polo and party with the South East region. See yall soon! <br />

(edit)Ok folks, it is official, the NA Hardcourt Bike Polo South Central Championships are going to be hosted in Austin Texas this year. This is a Regional Qualifier for the North American Championships later this year, so get your team together, get training, and come ready to slay the damn court! The dates are <b>April <strike>14-15th</strike></b> <b>7th-8th</b> starting at 9am both days!!<br />
<br />
There are only going to be 32 spots available for teams to register. So this means you better be ready when registration opens up! South Central Represent!<br />
<br />
Just in case you didn't know who is in the SC region: Louisiana, Texas, Alabama, Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, Wyoming, and Mexico! There are 29 clubs registered on the league of bike polo site in the SC region, surely we can fill this tourney up with regional players!?!<br />
<br />
<b><u>Austin Texas Bike Polo Social Club Members:</u></b><br />
We've done this in the past so I know it will work again, we need to design our poster, and since we have so many creative and artistic people in our club, it would be nice to have a poster design competition again. Who's down? All you need to do is draw/design something up and if it's voted as numero uno by the club, we will work to digitize it and make it web/poster/t-shirt worthy!<br />
<br />
Since the tourney is in April we need to get a poster together soon! So let's say by the end of the month we will all have submitted our designs and we can have a club meeting to vote on our favorite! SO THE END OF JANUARY IS THE DEADLINE TO SUBMIT A POSTER! WE CAN VOTE THE FIRST WEEK IN FEBRUARY!<br />
<br />
On another note, January 25th is our clubs official birthday. That falls on a Wednesday, so let's celebrate the Sunday before on the 22nd. Last year we went and played at each of the courts we've played at since polo started in ATX. This year we can do anything you all want, but let's do one thing for sure! GROUP PICTURE! It's always nice to get everyone together and have a nice group photo! Any ideas on location or timing will be appreciated! So start thinking about it!<br />
<br />

<b>NOTE: THE DATE FOR THE SCC HAS BEEN CHANGED TO THE FIRST WEEKEND IN APRIL ( 7TH AND 8TH) (YOU'RE WELCOME SCARY LARRY)</b><br />

<br />
So, blogger has updated it's features, allowed for us to much more easily customize our blog and make it that much better to look at. I hope you like! If you haven't already noticed there is a new link on the right hand side entitled "Buy ATXBPSC Stuff!!" Click on it and check it out... it's something I'm experimenting with, not sure how it will pan out, but I put up our old t-shirt designs for purchase through the Zazzle site, which does custom digital printing of t-shirts, buttons, stickers and other stuff. Kinda cool, eh? The profit for us is very little, but there is no expense for us to do this, so if you have an idea for a shirt and want to put it up there, get with me and we can add it to the ATXBPSC store, hosted by Zazzle!<br />
<br />
That's all for now, more to come soon!Robhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07462596218838012506noreply@blogger.com0
