Yes, the elections are nearly upon us. Thursday week 10 will witness a new elite team elected to head the canoe and canoe polo clubs next year. Your current social secs will inform you of the details very soon, but it is certainly a social not to be missed, even if you don't want to run for a position. It's not just about the elections but it also a good old knees up and meal with tons of the club members there to reminisce about the year gone by.
For now here's a list of the positions up for grabs.

If you would like more details about what each each position entails have a look at the following link,   http://www.warwickcanoe.co.uk/site/execpositions/ , alternatively ask any member of the exec for the low down of their role in running the club.
What you have to do at the elections:
- Say a poem / sing a song

Its as simple as that, so get your thinking caps on.
If you would like to run please email either president@warwickcanoe.co.uk or president@polo.warwickcanoe.co.uk  stating which position you would like to run for. You can also run on the night but if you know you want to run for now please email.

Polo Training Tonight
Next weeks polo session (Tuesday 13th March) will have some time devoted to a taster session for Sports Week.  As such, this will mean that there will be less time for last minute training before the BUSAs.
As a result of this, we will be concentrating primarily on the BUSA teams (Mens A and B, and Ladies A) at this evenings session.  This does not mean to say that you should not come along if you are not in the BUSA squad - just expect that you may have a little less game time than usual.
We will also be running a training session for BUSA teams ONLY on the Friday morning before we leave for BUSA.  This session will run from 10am-12pm on Friday 20th March in the Main Campus Pool.  This is likely to mean that you will have to return to Warwick slightly earlier following the Easter break than you may have intended.  Please make every effort to attend if you are able.  Just to reiterate, the BUSAs are the weekend of the 20th-22nd March, which is the weekend BEFORE the Summer Term starts.
My apologies for the short notice.

setting up kit
Ahoi!
If anyone could come along to the pool tomorrow at like 4.30pm and give me a hand with taping over paddles that'd be much appreaciated. We certainly need some people to help take boats down and set up goals at 5.15pm before sports centre shuts at 5.30pm. I recon you'd even deserve shotguning kit for your first game! Let know... and now off to Ale heheyey
A Shit load of Information

Thursday Coaching 
This weeks coaching sessions will be headed by Hayden and covering bracing, in all its forms and glory, Due to the new pool limit there can only be 8 people in the pool on Thursday so please respeat this come and learn and we'll make sure its fair.
Saturday
Rich P, Tom White & Robert Deller are going with me & Tom Laws to have a day of getting steeper, whilst Noj is taking Jennifer S, Becky A & Madi to do some progessive white water skills ready for Scotland. 
Sunday

Canoe Club Clothing
I'm going to be ordering the Canoe Club hoodies this week. The back will be printed with the design as above. The front will have a small logo embroidered on the left and then whatever you want as your name/nickname embroidered on the right. They will be £24 and you can choose from olive, black, ash, navy or chocolate. They\'re the same make of hoodies as last year which as far as I know everyone thinks are really good quality.
If you want one you need to email me by Thursday evening. I\'m going to put the order in early Friday morning so I won\'t be able to order one for you if you miss this deadline. Basically in your email tell me what size and colour you want and what you want embroidered as your name. Then you need to put a cheque to UWSU for £24 in the envelope on the club noticeboard (upstairs in Union North) also by Thursday.
Email me if you\'ve got any questions.
