    After mucho procrastinating on the choice of dates, with our heads well
    and truly stuck in the sand we , the EMU collective that is, have
    arrived at a date to repeat last years successfull hockey tournament.
    So on Saturday 1st July from 12.00pm to 6.00pm the East MIndlands
    Unicyclists (EMU's) are proud to present their second annual unicycle
    hockey tournament. We'll be playing hockey for 6 glorious hours with
    the tournament proper starting at 1.00pm. We'll be having scratch teams
    so all abilities are welcome, if we get enough younger players we'll
    also ensure that we have a couple of games that they can play in
    without being in fear of their lives. So come along and help us make it
    a great day

    So this is your chance to recapture the joys of last years tournament
    ('last years tournament'
    (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=41638)), good
    company, glorious sunshine and a post tournament barbecue, plenty of
    practice space. The entry fee will be about £5 and it will undoubtably
    be the best £5 you get the chance to spend all summer. So whether you
    want to practise for UniCon or just play some hockey join us in Derby
    on 1st July 2006 - Will post more details, directions etc shortly.

    Looking forward to seeing you there

    Roland & rest of the EMU's

    I would say that if you look at the info under where his avatar would
    be if he had one, that says Derby, UK that would be a slight hint. 😉

    Well I've committed myself to driving half way across the country for
    it, so I'll be there.

    Excellent news Cathy - should be a great day.

    Don't be too hasty suggesting that the fact that I'm from Derby, UK
    means that the tournament is there 🙄 Unicycle Dave may have
    suspected that I was some form of unicycle hockey impressario, the Don
    King of hockey promotions if you like, travelling the world putting on
    those big name hockey fixtures that the public want to see, however
    thats an idea of pure fantasy on my part - So as Joe said, its Derby in
    the UK ( at about 52.56 degrees North and 1.30 degrees West) will post
    up a link to the map shortly.

    Great news to hear about the hockey Roland 😄 , but it's not looking too
    good for myself at the moment 🙁 . Wendy's off the the States that
    weekend and so I might find it hard to disappear to Derby for the day.
    We'll see 😕

    This is NOT a thread hijack, so please DO NOT respond. I'll be
    starting a separate thread soon, to tell you all there's another hockey
    tournament on the 23rd Sept in Manchester (UK) 😉 I'll say no more for
    the moment.

    Well try and work the magic - what better way for Wendy to remmber you
    and Teo (sorry about the spelling:o ) that having some great father sun
    hockey in a sunny Derby. It'd be great if you can make but we'll
    probably let you off if you can't 🙄

    As Joe says - don't forget it should be an excellent afternoon - it
    seems that we've got the sun booked and everything - its worth visiting
    the the site just to see that the depths that I have sunk to on web
    page quality although I think that this is the sign that I need to sit
    down and update it properly - so see you Saturday

    Cheers

    My car is poorly. I have to sort it out, rather than drive across the
    country in it 🙁

    Bad luck Cathy - we'll be sure to post a report of the great time the
    rest of us have - just got to make sure that you get it fixed so that
    that you can make the machester tournament in the Autumn - A fret not,
    we will definitely be doing the floodlit mid winter Derby tournament
    this coming year for the true hockey officianados out there - Full
    report to follow tomorrow of how it all goes
