THE burgeoning sport of bicycle polo is looking for a new home.

Perth Cycle Polo player Scott D’Mello says players set up at carparks around Mt Lawley but they’d like something more official now the newly created sport is reaching the big time.

“We had the Australasian championships in Perth last year and we had to rent out some traffic barriers, but that didn’t work out too well because parts of them were angled so you didn’t get a nice bounce off them.

“The main thing that we need is a flat surface with barriers all the way around.

“We’ve been looking for abandoned warehouses… we could always use a mix between a basketball court and a polo court.”

Mixed-use courts where the basketball pole swings away would be ideal.

If you have somewhere suitable, you can call Mr D’Mello on 0437 159 720.
