Title: Urgent: 2 players needed for Interleague game on 30th November in Doncaster.
Post by: Matt D on November 20, 2013, 20:48:34 PM
Hi all,

I"m 2 players short for "Team APAT" in the LPPL Interleague Team game that"s taking place on 30th November at a pub in Doncaster.

Full details, venue, timings etc. here: http://www.apat.com/forum/index.php?topic=14137.0

It"s a free/just for fun game, with (massive) bragging rights at stake. Every player gets a free "limited edition" TEAM APAT t-shirt too(!) :D With 12 of us heading up (if I can find 2 replacements!), and 12 teams in total, it should be a great day out - and a fun challenge in a good atmosphere :)

The only caveat is that you must have played at least one APAT game in Season 6 or 7.

Could be ideal for any APATers living close by, who fancy helping us on our way to victory! :)

Please post here or PM me ASAP if you"re interested in playing.

Thanks!
Matt

Just to re-enforce Matt's post....

If anyone can make this event, i strongly recommend you to do so.

Apart from it being a fantastic social occasion, the team ethic certainly brings the best out of players that play and represent their area.

There is also plenty of "side action" available to all that goes on late into the night that can more than justify you being there, in the absence of any ultimate prize for the winning team - other than a huge trophy, huge bragging rights and a mass of PR!!!!

I hope anyone that can play does do - I can assure you you will not regret it.

Quick update as still urgent...

Having gone from a full team > 11 > 10 > 9 (!) > 10, we"re back down to 9 again :(

So in need of 3 players...

If you can play, then please let me know ASAP. Either on this thread or by PM.

See above for full event details.

I"m sure there must be some APAT players who live in Yorkshire who are free for a day"s poker on 30th? :D

Post by: Matt D on November 22, 2013, 00:21:03 AM
Hoho, I think Leigh volunteered the beer buying on my behalf! :)

The full team is:

Me
Wayne Parker
Ian Szerlowski
Adrian Long
Pedro Simoes
Rita Galvin
Bill Sheppard
Craig Dawson
Chris Hiam
Ian Burnett
Barrie Penman
Del Watson

p.s. I would recommend definitely not driving if possible (unless you"re tee-total), as being this game is in a pub, I expect it to be quite a boozy affair!.

Hi All, looking forward to seeing you at IL - they (us) are a boisterous and drunken lot that love to enjoy themselves - and to start off the weekend a lot of LPPL players are attending Doncaster Races on Fri afternoon, then making their way (slowly - the racing finishes about 15:30) to the venue for a small "doubles" team game on Fri evening where Mark The Shark has devised a weird and wonderful structure that should lend itself to being very vocal and enjoyable - before they will all retire for the evening to ensure a good rest for fun and frolics on Sat!

No doubt it will start off with you lot being the "opposition" against ALL other teams, but as the day wears on and the more you embrace this as a totally social (but EXTREMELY COMPETITIVE) and enjoyable occasion the more I am sure both you and they will get out of it.

Please do introduce yourself to me over the weekend if we haven"t already met - and best of luck - but above all else - I hope you enjoy it.

Tom
