M25 leg 2 at Reading - the divisions!

[Syd (NSPL)]

Here here - lets just play some 'ball!

The issue on how series points and prizes are to be calculated is a fair point though.

And SAM - you're the man. Word!

I agree with the above post this was our second tourney and as a team we have 3 virgins 2 guys with one year experiance 1 guy with 10 yrs exp. myself with 2yrs and playing better teams gave us a wake up call on playing tight screaming our lungs out and playing hard and finally enjoying ourselves. we were moved up from div 4 to 3 and basically just got stuck in and we came 2nd.

So to all teams out there that think going up a div will mean you maybe the whipping boys think again and give it a go it can either hurt or get some real pride in the team you play for.

Just remember its only a game so enjoy ....

god i love forums!

SJT well done yesterday you guys played good! we noticed the improvement from the indoor (where you played good as well - just better this time, beat us ........gits! )

why do guys have to always try and appease situations, forums are great places to have a light hearted ding dong with fellow ballers! the only time that me and SJT have ever met is on a field with markers pointing at each other, trying to knock each others heads off! now thats fun!! if we didnt care, then we wouldnt say anything, so being as we do say things by default it means we care, so its gotta be good!

what can we row about now SJT?.....

HE HE. .......hmm.....how about a 'mine's bigger than yours debate'.... Just joking,

Seriously though, i really enjoyed the games against Storm yesterday, i learnt so much yesterday, and had a great time at the same time. Thanks to all the teams that we played, and hope to see you all again at the next leg. We will be there, should be fun.

Oh, and to all the teams that were at a loss for something to do while the schedule ran a bit behind, take note from the Shockwave Am book and bring a football and a nerf rocket.......man was that fun.......and an apology to the girl that i nearly hit in the head with the rocket....sometimes i dont realise just how far i can throw the damn thing.....

Yeah for nerf rockets I had one packed way in my kit bag but fist got told off by Liz for playing with it in the marquee and none of my team wanted to play with it even though we were running an hour behind. Damn A teamers there no fun afterall its a bloody game for christs sake. The worst part of it was they wouldn't let me take any cuddley toys onto the field with me, Now thats mean. Tortoise-Licker with no cuddlies thats uncalled for.

Tort poor love

We are working on the running order honest!

As most of you are aware we had problems with marshals not showing up and one crashed his car and two having other public transport issues. We did catch up the hour delay by lunchtime. I had spoken to the catering staff and explained it was imperative that lunch is hot and ready for my staff and this could make or break the event.

Sadly they said yes and then did the opposite. This is what caused the running order to again fall behind. I have made a formal complaint to the venue. We would very much like to use the venue next year as I feel with a few adjustments it's brilliant, but they will either have to let us use Jim and Lisa or learn to provide what they have promised.

Guys i would have played footie with you or possibly tried the rocket thing as long as it’s done in a safe area.

I have a whole 6 weeks before the next event

I am having a few days off and much sleep then.................

I already have a whole list of improvements I plan to implement, some fine tuning relating to lack of time issues, others that have arisen from player feed back. Or just things my self and the staff have seen or felt would improve the events.
I hope to see you all again soon.

I would love to run 4 fields next time so we need 48 + teams to justify the additional costs ie staff, more netting, yet more scaffolding. It would also help the running order no end.

I will be releasing details of the next event very soon.

If the provisional list of teams is 48+ by the 27th of April then I will plan for 4 fields if not we will be limiting the event to 32 teams.

Deposits need to be paid by the 4th of May.

There will be an additional charge of £35.00 per team for deposit received after this date (this was suggested by you the players)
With a cut off date of Tuesday 13th of May.

Teams with a rolling deposit need to let me know if they are planning to attend by the 4th of May at the latest this will be the cut off date.

Please bare in mind I have a marquee to book and this is now summer fete and wedding season so it’s impossible to hire huge marquees at the last minuet.

Again teams wishing to Marshal the event please pm or email me if you think you can do a better job.

I pay well and you receive series points too.

Thank you all for your continued support.
