Hi
Polocrosse in FinlandI just wanted to tell you that I have started polocrosse in Finland in January 2013. At moment I’m the only coach, and I have 25 girls that I’m coaching at the moment, we are sending a team to Polocrosse extreme cup this year to play in the E-grade! We are not highly organized because it’s sort of all hanging on me, so at the moment we are under the local riding club at the stable where I’m holding the practices to avoid as much paperwork as possible. We have got a facebook site, but that’s as far as I can go at the moment, I’m hoping to get this more structured in the fall when I have more time! But I just wanted to notice you about this tiny, brand new polocrosse-country =)
Kind regards

The quadrangular series will be held at Shongweni, approximately 30 kilometres from the picturesque east coast city of Durban, from 11th to 14th July 2013 (horse draw will take place on 6th July 2013).

International Umpire meeting will be held on 9th July 2013

Can each of you ensure your delegates and your chief umpires are made aware of these meetings and to diarise the dates.

Agenda items for both meetings can be sent to me prior to 31st December 2012 (closing date). We endeavour to have the agenda out to you all early to ensure countries have sufficient time for item discussion prior to the meetings.

If you are able to advise your attendance at these meetings as soon as possible to ensure we have sufficient and appropriate accommodation pre booked for your arrival.

I will continue to send reminders of these dates to each of you over the next few months.

Kind regards

Polocrosse is very much a family affair where Paul and Sally McGrath are concerned.

The two experienced players will don their maroon uniforms once again for Queensland at the 2012 Barastoc Polocrosse Nationals being held in Warwick next month.

However, there won’t be the long road trip or weeks away from home they are used to when they have been selected to play for their state in previous years.

This time around, the family will only have a half hour trip down the road to Warwick to play at the Nationals being held from April 23 to 29.

Both members of the Warwick Polocrosse Club, Paul and Sally McGrath, have notched up 20 Polocrosse Nationals between them, and both have again been selected to play for Queensland at the upcoming championships being held at Warwick’s Morgan Park complex.

With their two daughters, Keely and Jordan, who are also keen polocrosse players, both competing as juniors for the Warwick Club, the family will be spending plenty of time concentrating on polocrosse over the next six weeks. Continue reading »

Dear All,

I’m afraid I email you all with the news that the World Cup committee have been forced to make a change of venue for the World Cup, which is being held in July this year. I will not bore you with all the details as to why it has had to make this change, nothing can be gained from looking backwards at this stage. Continue reading »
