Hello All, Final preperations are being made for TropHat which takes place this coming Sunday on Tooting Bec common near Balham Tube/Overground. Please note that the weathermen have helpfully deamed Sunday to be sunny/rainy/overcast with scattered showers/sunshine/clouds. Fat lot of use that is. There are also some Tubelines running with a limited service (although I believe the Northern Line is OK) so please check with Boris at tfl.gov.uk before you travel.
The teams will be drawn on Saturday Afternoon to allow as much time as possible for people to get in at the last minute. There's still space for you, your partner, family or concubine. £10. All proceeds are going to fund two people to work on an AIDS & Malnutrition intervention in Zambia for two months. A ruddy good cause, I think you'll agree. The format is mind boggling: A "Round Robin" between all teams and then a final between the top two teams to add a little spice. Madness. There will be a break at one point so everyone can go and get some Kronenbourg from the Sainsbury's near the train station in preperation for the final. It is *essential* that you buy Kronenbourg though. Sorry. Games will start at 9:30(am) but by all means rock up as early as 9(am) to meet your team and get your 'kit' if you weren't at the Party the night before (Incidentally the party is 8pm till late in "The Hive" in Brixton - all welcome - there will be Flip Cup, permanent markers, straightarming). We are only assigning players to the colours of their shirt - it is up to the players present at the party to design their own kit and team name. If you want to make sure you team name isn't "Cock Ponies" or "The Fabulous Moriarty Brothers", I suggest you turn up to the party and quietly guide the selection towards your choice of "The Pickle Incident of 2009". Or whatever. Games are to end about 6pm. We will do our best to get enough water for all but please be sensible and bring enough for yourself. The schedule will be emailed to the facebook group. All the very best The TropHat team __________________________________________________ BritDisc mailing list [email protected] http://www.fysh.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/britdisc Staying informed - http://www.ukultimate.com/staying-informed
