Ok party people, two subjects to bring to your attention.

1)Sports Fed Ball. If you want to be a part of this fabulous event, and you want to sit with other canoests, I need your Booking number etc as out lined in previous emails, pronto. The closing date for this is Monday 19th, which is this coming monday. Then myself and a select panel will be sitting down and putting you into groups. Stop faffing and email me! (if you have already done so, thankyou, and I apologise for wasting your time.)

2)CENTURION. This is a brilliant social utility, and will certainly result in alot of hillarity. The challenge is basicaly to have one shot of beer/cider/alcopop every minute for 100minutes. Sounds fun dosen't it. Will take place on Sat17,on the feild infront of Old Rootes. We will meet in the Piazza at 1500hrs to purchase beverages.

Thankyou for your time

Nakedness, episode 2

Right, unfortunatly, as the photographer didn't show up to take our last photo, we have to all get naked again.What a great shame.


The suggested plan is to have it taken at cryfield tomorrow, around the 6pm time so we can all get back for polo. If people could be at the cryfield pavilion at 6 or at the sports centre at 5:45 with the kit they want to cover their anatomy with, we should have plenty of time to get a glorius photo.

Can you please post on the website as well if you can make it, to make sure we have enough people doing it. The last photo had an awesome turnout, let's hope you all haven't been scared off by Blackmore's "throwbag of shame"!

Carry on enjoying the weather

Paddlesport demo day

Hi guys,

Just to make your lives more complicated, paddlesport are holding a demo day this sunday, so if you're not sure what boat you want to buy, or just want to check out some cool stuff, this is for you. I've been told these demodays are great fun, with a bbq and guaranteed sunny weather.

If you want to come along, please post on the website, and whether or not you have a vehicle you can trasport others in. Will proabably be meeting around 11 on campus, but more on that later. If you haven't already worked it out, this is on the same day as doggy paddle, so you have to choose between 1 or the other I'm afraid.

Over and out.

Doggy Paddle

Posted 17y 1mth ago by Some Old Git
Posted by: Madi

Hello!

Right folks, Sunday of week 3 (11th of May), is the Doggy Paddle, this is a sponsored paddle from Leamington to Warwick Castle, it happens every year and is to raise money for 'Guide dogs for the Blind', its' 19 miles of easy paddling so no one should have any problems. We need to be on the water quite early so will be leaving campus around 8.30 shock horror!( those who live in Leam can come meet us at the get in.)I've been told its' wicked-cool fun and a great break from scary exam revision. Sign up has gone up on the website, so go forth and sign up for the chance to spend a day drifting lazily down stream in the sunshine, with the added bonus of doing something for charity! It costs £7 pounds to enter, and what ever you can raise in sponsorship. This doesn't include transport, so we'll get back to you how much that will cost, won't be much and the more the cheaper! As its' the doggy paddle fancy dress would definitely be appropriate, so all in all it'll be a right laugh,.

Right to Play Naked Calendar

Posted 17y 1mth ago by Some Old Git
Posted by: Fingers
Ok everyone. The photographer is available for our pool session on Monday. If it is probable that you may attend (and get naked (at least partially)), please can you sign up in the trips section (here) to save on forum-confusion. This is just for a rough idea of how many will turn up so I know whether to accept this day.

Also, if you are a little squeamish, I'd advise averting your gaze in a ladylike/gentlemanly manner at the start of the session. Never fear - there will be an e-mail confirmation as to whether your lovely pool session will actually be complemented with nakedness nearer the time.

PS everyone get down to the gym sharpish - 5 days left before we have to show swimming and waterpolo who's boss...

...

For those who missed it:
Warwicksport have taken it upon themselves to raise money for the following charity, in an interesting way...

[quote name=Gema]Right To Play is a humanitarian organization using sport and play programs to encourage the healthy physical, social and emotional development of the worldÔÇÖs most disadvantaged children. Right To Play is committed to improving the lives of these children and to strengthening their communities by translating the best values of sport into opportunities to promote development, health and peace. More details of Right To Play can be found on the following website http://www.righttoplay.org.uk/.
...
In order continue to raise money through Warwick Sport for this fantastic Charity, Warwick Sport is going to be producing a "Naked Sports Calendar" for the next academic year.
In order to produce such a calendar we will need the support of the Sports Teams to "get their kit off" (in a tasteful way with strategically placed equipment) and help us raise as much money as possible.[/quote]
Nudity anyone?

Lilac hoodies

Right a few of you might have heard about the feasco with the lilac hoodies, well it's been 7wks and Run and Jump havnt chased me up about returning them, and im fed up with them cluttering up my room, so i think its fair for me to distribute them to the lucky owners. Wow two purple hoodies for the price of one I hear you cry, yes thats right! I bet the rest of you are all wishing they went purple!

Ok so,

Xain, Katherine, Nigel, and Rachel, you are the lucky owners of a lovely lilac hoodie whooo!

I have them at my house in leamington, you can claim it from here if you want, or i can bring them to a canoe/canoe polo session.

If for some reason you dont want a lilac hoodie, then let me know as scavingers who didnt buy hoodies have expressed interest in them. And will gladly wear them. P.s the hoodies are the same shade as this news post... great!

Ok Lords, Ladies and Gentilmen, the plan is as follows;

Where: Cholo, When: Wed wk 3, 1900hrs (happy hr 7-8pm), Who: Everyone, tis going to be side splittingly good. Fancy Dress is STAR WARS themed, so get your lightsabres polished and your Princess Laya bikinis dry cleaned. You've got a whole week so there are no excuses for lack of fancy dress. If you can think of nothing else stick hair to your face and roar in a distant manner. We also need volunteers to be auctioned. Don't be shy, it's for charity!

happy costume making.

Tournament Next Week

Posted 17y 1mth ago by Some Old Git
Posted by: Cloughy

As exams draw ever nearer I find myself in constant need of distractions, and the latest one to arrive will be in the form of a 'friendly' polo tournament next week (Tuesday 6th May). The teams will be drawn from people within the club so its just warwick verses warwick for the ultimate in bragging rights! If you want to be involved in the tourament, can you post on the forum BEFORE next week, so that we can have the teams and playlist sorted prior to tuesday - these teams will be mixed before anyone starts quaking in fear about taking on a full A team. If you do not post saying that you will definately be there then you will be given lowest prority for games.

Misc Kit

Posted 17y 1mth ago by Some Old Git
Posted by: manof
Hi guys. Did a big equipment/kit check today with Iain and just thought I'd send out an email as some stuff is missing and one or two items are not club and may be yours!

Missing:
Yak car rack straps (four sets of)
Club thermos
Yak deck
Blue BA
Wetsuits, one purple and one red
Dry cag (was borrowed for scotland?)

Nobody is in trouble or anything, we just want to know whereabouts everything is.

Also there are a pair of (rather crushed) wetsuit boots on the balcony and a digital watch that was still attched to a BA, which I think is Steve's.

Thanks again,

Rob (manof)
