Right guys,

I'm sure most of you are aware that there is some form of polo tournament going on tomorrow. In order to prepare mentally (and physically) for it, we are going to get lashed in the union tonight!

This is no ordinary occasion, as it is a 70's/80's themed time tunnel, with a special guest of none other than Verne Troyer (yes, mini me from Austin Powers, I can already smell your excitement).

Loads of old gits will be appearing tonight, as well as a couple of Brummies, so I'm certain it will be a night of epic proportions. Doors open at 9, so I imagine canoeists will be there in the hundreds draped in colourful garments from 9:30 or so.

Filling in for a currently occupied Mr. Blackmore

Peace and love, peace and love

Bath university will once again be holding their beginner's tournament, this year on the 29th September (Saturday end of week nine).

It's a great opportunity for those who are new to the sport to play a first competitive tournament against other beginners.

It's an event that Warwick did very well at last year!

Sign-up will be available online very shortly.

Good day, loyal subjects. Some of you new members of the club may have noticed a few of the older, grumpier types stalking around campus in extremely slick and sexy black jackets with 'Warwick Canoe' emblazoned in shiny lettering across the back.

Feeling left out?

Feeling wet?

Feeling cold and windswept?

Feeling sexually humiliated?

Well, a new batch of jackets available soon (as long as you promise to buy them) can help with all but the last of those problems.

If you are interested in buying your first Warwick Canoe jacket (and I heartily recommend them), or buying a spare in case something terrible should happen, please let me know by either emailing or posting on the site. We should have them before the Christmas hols, when they will be of great use in keeping your nipples attached.

Robb - Secretary.

The traditional fireworks social is apon us!

The plan is simple... as usual. Meet at the bus stop at 1915hrs if you are coming from campus, otherwise find your way to my house in Leam for 2000hrs. This is happening next Thursday, week 7 [13th]. Please bring £5 to go towards the pyrotechnics, and bring some boose if you are that way inclined.

There is scope for a visit to Kelsey's and maybe even Evolve afterwards if people are up for it.

My address: 16 camberwell terrace, off Radford road. If you need further directions ring me. 07891822891

It has been deemed necissary for a second social sec to be appointed. I have been asked to bring this to your attention by the powers that be so that they can arrange an election some time towards the end of term. If you are interested in running, or want to suggest someone you think maybe suitable, talk to an exec member from either club.

Hi everyone

For at least the rest of term there will be coaching on monday sessions. We will only be using the shallow half of the pool so the hardcore gayboaters amongst you will still be able to strut your stuff.

Next monday we will be doing draw strokes and moving sideways, so if you have never heard of a draw stroke or sculling draw, or just want to come along to get some tips on how to improve it, then come along next monday at 830.

see you all then

The time has come my friends for the mighty warwick polo tournament. The tournament will be held in the sports centre from 11 till 5 on Sunday 16th November (end of week 7), and warwick are fielding four teams; Mens A, Mens B, Ladies and Old Gits. If you are free and would like to play for any of these teams then please sign up in the trips section. Admittedly there will not be places for everyone that signs up, but this is not a definate 'no you will not ever play for warwick', it is merely because we have too many players! So sign up now, and lets kick some polo ass!
