Tuesday, June 3rd - Bicycle Polo in the Round
Ladies and gentlemen of the Greater Toronto Area, and esteemed guests to our fair city are cordially invited to a civilized evening of sport.

Meet in the pit at Trinity-Bellwoods Park the evening of Tuesday June 3rd at a half past six.

Here are a few recommendations to ensure the evening lives up to it’s full societal potential:

Attire: formality and civility go hand in hand.  Wear the nicest clothes that you don’t mind getting a little dirty.  (The fancier you dress, the more fun you’ll have, we promise.)

Bring:

 - a sturdy bicycle, one that’s easy to ride with one hand. (we play in the circle of dirt near the gazebo.  it can be a little bumpy on the skinny tires of a fast road bike.)                                                                                  

-snacks and discreet beverages.  (easier to make friends between matches…or matches between friends)

-a pen and paper in case you are inspired to write a poem or a love note to another player.

-your wit, your charm, your competetive spirit; your grace, your manners, and above all, your sense of humour.
