2015 NAHBPC Announced + nahbpc.com

Posted on by John Hayes

We would like to announce that the 2015 North American Championships will be held on the weekend of 17-20 September, in Lexington, KY.

This year will include a wildcard on the Thursday, followed by the usual Friday-Sunday format. The dates are still provisional at this point.

The NAH Bench Championship is likely to take place in November, but details are still to be confirmed.

Pending confirmation from Timaru, we expect the Worlds to take place at the end of January 2016.

More details on all of this to follow in the next few weeks.

Portland wins first-ever NAH Bench Championship!

Posted on by John Hayes

Congratulations to Portland Bike Polo for winning the first ever North American Club Bench Championships!

The tournament was a great success, and we can’t wait for 2015 for it to happen again.

We will be looking for feedback on how we can improve it, you’ll see some surveys soon.

If you club can provide 3 courts, and wants to host it in 2015, please let us know (we’d love to do it on the West Coast next time)..

NAHBPC 2014 Registration, Qualifier Results & Club Leaderboard

Posted on by John Hayes

NAHBPC 2014 Registration

Once teams have qualified, they must register for the NAHBPC to be able to compete.

Registration will use Podium, and can be found here: https://www.podiumbikepolo.com/register/nahbpc2014

Any teams who have not yet qualified will be rejected, and will need to re-register if and when they do qualify.

Registration will be $123 per team ($41 per player). Of this $120 will go to the NAHBPC organisers, with the rest covering transaction fees.

All teams must be successfully registered and paid for by Sat 21st June. After this any regions not using their full quota will lose their slots, and have them reallocated to other regions.

Regional slots will be allocated to the top teams at their qualifier. To claim those slots at least ⅔ of the players in the team at the qualifier must register for the NAHBPC. In the event a team choses not to take their slot, it will pass down to the next team in the qualifier (with the same ⅔ rule). Where two teams have the same finishing position in the elimination, the highest finishing position from the swiss rounds will be the deciding factor.

If none of the existing teams can claim the slot, then a team formed of at least 2 players who played in the qualifier can apply to their regional rep to take the slot. Priority will be given to teams who have the highest placed player at the qualifier.
