The polo club will soon be ordering more Rash Vests. They will be exactly the same as last year so you know exactly what they look like and if you're really nice may even be able to try one on. The sizing chart is below.



For reference -  mine is a medium.

These are high quality rash vests with the design actually printed into the fabric rather than just stuck on so they will last a lot longer.

Cost is £22 each. Same drill as hoodies post here if you want one. Cheques payable to UWSU please write your name and "Rash Vest" on the back.

Please only use this post if you are ordering one as it's a pain in the arse to filter through the crap that you lot write. Any questions etc. start a forum discussion.

Dear Everyone,

The jackets will soon be with us, though we are still awaiting payment from a few naughty types, but I have decided (and been told) to get on with things. So let's all get hoodies! I promise they won't be cardigans, capes or my trademark 'swesties', but real hoodies, honest guv. What's more they should be affordable, stylish and available in a variety of colours to be confirmed.

As well as being able to proudly display that you are a member of that gem among sports clubs: 'Warwick Canoe', AND have a funky design on the back, either some manly Kayaking motif or a big picture of my face (I just can't decide), you will be able to select for yourself a humorous or inappropriate name to have emblazoned upon your breast.

So... who's interested? Email, post or shout very loudly. Would you like S, M or L. Anybody desperate for a particular colour? What hideous title do you envisage for yourself? I might just give a half-price hoodie to anyone who chooses the name 'Marble-Gargler'.

Robb.

Ok folks there have be tales of people having lectures on wednesday afternoons, there has been an unwritten agreement between the uni and the students union to kepp wednesday afternoons free for sport since the dawn of time, so if you have lectures running past 12pm on a wednesday then please send your testimony so we can put a stop to this before it becomes a problem. thank you.

Also Naken calanders featuring the canoe club and your's truely are now on sale at a reduced price of £2.50  wow! So if running out of ideas for mothers day, or just want to look at naken members (haha) of the canoe club when you feel lonely wander over to the sports center and take your home today!

Yo Hombres y mamitas!

You can probably hear Madi screaming in excitement already, but:


It's time for the manic madness of ICE SKATING!!!!!!


When: Wednesday Week 3 (21st Jan) 7:15pm at Campus Bus Stop/8pm at the Coventry Skydome.

Who: Everybody!!!!!! The more the merrier (and the cheaper!) Don't worry if you "can't skate", the Ice is very forgiving and there's plenty of space to watch and laugh too.


Thick Socks are a good idea.

Cheers,

Matt and Nige

Sorry for yet another email!!

If you are intending on doing your 2 star on the refreshers trip, you will have to do an open canoe test as well. There is one being run at leam boat centre on sun 15th feb, it should cost £25 and you can claim half of this back.

This is also needed for those of you who have old 2 star or are doing your new 3 star if you intend to get coaching qualifications.

It's a really fun day and you do learn a lot of useful skills.

So if anyone wants a go please email me or post on the website

Hi

The club will be running (through leam boat centre) a safety test next month, the only question is, which safety test do you want to do. FSRT or CST. They are such useful courses as im sure many of the club will tell you, feel free to ask any of the older members of the club about it.

FSRT

advantages are it is the new, more detailed course and also includes safety in an open boat aswell as kayak, you'll need this if you intend on getting coaching qualifications later

CST

advantages: can take more people and is likely to be cheaper, also probably more relevant as does not cover canoe rescue which you may not need.

if you want to do one of these post on the website or email me.

The date is likely to be 14th Feb and cost to be confirmed (but you can claim half back from the uni)

That's right Ladies and Gentlefolk. This years hoodies are now available. With a logo tweaked by the overtly camp and potentially homosexual Webbo himself, you too could be the talk of campus sporting this fine garment.

At just £20 complete with a nickname of your choice they are a bargain and will make a great addition to your all too drab wardrobe.

Colours available will be: Navy Blue, Red, Forest Green

I will be in the Grad for some post-polo-pubbage tonight with a small selection of sizes or a selection of small sizes if you prefer. If you want a hoodie please post here with your size, colour and nickname. Then either give a cheque made payable to UWSU me, Rachel or leave it in the envelope in the noticeboard in Union North.
