Well, many of us are planning to be at the Masters games including the 41+ yr old ave champion Grandpas who showed that body parts still work after 40.

I looked before to see if I could compete in some of my other sports (tennis, squash, etc.) But the cool one would be War Canoe or Outrigger at the sprint distances. The marathon distances conflict with dates.

We could have complete polo personnell, not practice and just show up. These events are right after our games and before americas cup. Could be a lot of fun and we will be there anyway. We could team up with the Canadians too.

I assume War Canoe is Dragon boat racing. 15 man boats. OC- 6 man. Mens, womens and mixed.

Great timing! No practicing beforehand. Maybe even wear our PFD's to be extra goofy.

Who is in!?!?!?!

Albert,

So, the Grandpas is your squad? I'm hoping to go to Masters but have yet to work out what the team may or may not be. I'm thinking of sticking around for the sprint boat competition but would be interested in War Canoe. This all depends, of course, if I'm going (i.e. invited) to Americas' Cup/Pan Ams.
