This year we have a social grade competition.
The program for this year is a five week Round Robin competition with six teams, culminating in either a semi-final and finals night or finals followed by a handicap tournament.
It’s still not too late to join. If you have friends, family members or business colleagues you would like to play with or against, get them along!
General Info and Rolling Practice
Competition Format: Round robin with 6 teams playing. We will have three games a night, each lasting 30 minutes with 6 minutes between games. Please assemble your teams poolside ten minutes before the start of your game.
Poolside time – 10 min before game time: All players to be assembled pool side 10 minutes before the start of their game.
Pool setup time – 7.00pm: The first two teams playing each night to bring in gear from the shed, inflate the bugs, inflate and place the goals, setup and plug in scoreboard.
Spectators and prospective players: Spectators are always welcome and pool entry is free for non swimmers (no spectators at COVID level 2 or higher sorry). Want to have a go? Come along, we’ll get you in a bug, teach you the basics and even find you a team to join.
Rolling practice: There’s usually a spare Bug and lane to practice in – get that roll sorted for next summer’s Riverbugging.
