University Sports Tour
Would you like the chance to play Octopush in Spain?
Every year the Univeristy goes on tour, this Year they are going to Salo in Spain. (Map)
Tug has been organising some matches against Spanish teams, so far two matches are lined up & their is talk of a tournament of some sort.
Unfortunately the Union stipulates that only Students are allowed on the tour, apologies to the non-Student members. If we are going to go, there must be at least ten of us so that we can play the matches.
Naked Calendar
This year the naked calendar is going to be slightly revamped, this year it will be reversible! On one side are the "Babes of the AU" and on the reverse will be the "Hunks of the AU" the battle is on Girls v Guys who's picture will be hanging on your wall!
This year each month is themed, the Girls are going to do May, so the theme is May Day. (Emily is organising the photo shoot.) The guys are doing June, so their theme is Exams. (Harry is organising the guys photo shoot.)
Photo shoots will be this week, you don't have to join in with the calendar, but it is fun.
Training Sessions: Attendance & Kit
I don't want to moan, but I have been asked to post the following: Please ensure that you are not late to training sessions, we meet outside the pool in the car park and start picking teams at quater to the hour. (Session times can be found in the calendar.)
Also if you use club kit, it would be really appericiated if you could return it to the kit box as neatly as possible. If you use some of the new blue fins please put the foot shapers back in when you put them away.
Social Kit: Hoodies and Polo Shirts - Advanced Notice
Many of you have been asking about Polo shirts and Hoodies so here is what you need to know...
The Social kit order will be placed in the new year, straight after the Christmas break.
You will have the opportunity to purchase a Hoodie (Maroon) and/or Pool Shirt (blue polo shirt). Prices will be confirmed nearer the time, you can also have your nickname or name put on both, so get thinking.
The club also uses social shirts (Previously black and orange.), more details about these to follow in the new year.
