🥸 Movember Polo Tournament 🥸

Posted 3y 0mth ago by Adi Cormack

Hey everyone! 

 

For Movember, we have decided to make next weeks Tuesday pool session (Tuesday 29th) a mini intra-tournament with a twist! 

 

For the occasion, we ask for everyone to come in fancy dress (there will be prizes for best costumes) and compete to be crowned champions.

 

We ask for everyone competing to pay a minimum contribution of £1 towards Movember (given to Molly during the session)! And please sign up here: https://warwickcanoe.uk/trips/trip.php?trip_id=128 so that we are able to create the teams and schedule prior to the session! This tournament is suitable for everyone, regardless of how much polo you have played before!

 

Please note: costumes have to still allow sufficient movement and a BA, Spray deck and Helmet to be worn. We may ask you to do a swim test if we want to double check the safety :)) 

 

If you have any questions, feel free to drop me, Molly or any of the exec a message. 

 

Polo love,

 

Adi and the rest of the exec x

<><>< Sliders and Beanies Order ><><>

Posted 3y 0mth ago by Yousuf Mohammed

 

Hey everyone! 

 

As we approach the colder winter nights ahead of us, you can stay warm with some Warwick Canoe beanies!! 

These stylish hats look cool, keeping you warm outside, and inside your home. Meaning less bills and essentially paying for themselves. 

 

Add to that some very comfy sliders that could make any outfit pop 🤩 whether you are at home, on the beach or at the pool.  

 

More information on the sliders can be found here:

https://www.laxn.co.uk/sliders/?fbclid=IwAR32zVj0TfdOjyGAh60kRFhemYzrLhfGQ8ItrmWPcD1N1ndBWWcprcPHCoM

 

The main bit is that there are two types of sliders available with different straps (same cost): 

 

EMBOSSED = High quality man-made leather (vegan) with an embossed line around the edge. Perfect for those who wear sliders with socks!

STITCHED = Man-made leather strap with additional padding and stitch finish. Perfect for those who wear sliders without socks

 

Ordering, along with photos and prices will be on the google form below:

 

https://forms.gle/DMPS4HBt5aRuoGf59

 

Exact prices depend on the number of orders. Orders will close a week today (28th of November 1pm), and after then you will receive payment details . 

 

Both sliders and beanies should be available to collect first thing term two. 

 

If you have any queries feel free to get in touch with one of us or any of the other execs!

 

Secretary Love,

 

Yousuf, Brother and all the exec xx

T- 30 hours till ball throwing....

Posted 3y 0mth ago by Adi Cormack
Hey everyone! Some exciting news for you all on this grey Thursday morning. Ball throwing is making a comeback, bigger and better than ever before- mainly because its not in Westwood at 8am.
 
Ball throwing is on tomorrow from 4pm-5pm in Zone C of the sports hub (through the gates and down the stairs) so come along to improve your ball throwing skills, but also just for a laugh and a chilled mini-social. Absolutely no need to come in the latest gym gear, just trousers you will happily move around in and suitable trainers are absolutely fine.
Don't forget to book on, like normal, via the Warwick Sport website.
Hoping to see you there,
 
Polo love,
 
Adi x

Week 7 Socials - Board games & Kasbah

Posted 3y 0mth ago by Emma Hymas
Hey everybody,
 
Board Games
Plans foiled by a mere kids birthday party, we’re instead hosting a board game night this Thursday
Come along at 7.30pm to OC1.02 (the Oculus) to have a very relaxed evening of board game playing and potential pizza hut orders.
 
Kasbah Friday
Disappointed about missing a day out in picturesque Coventry? Ever wondered what it’s like to stand in the presence of God? Don’t fear as we also bring good news of a club Kasbah trip this Friday
Mark ‘The Beast’ Labbett from the Chase is doing a meet and greet at Kasbah, and frankly is there a much worthier cause to enter Coventry than to meet The Beast
Pres location will be in Leam and will be finalised very shortly.
 
If you’re planning on coming to Kasbah, click going here: https://fb.me/e/54y2QN418

Kit and Cocktails 🍸

Posted 3y 0mth ago by Emma Hymas
Hello Everyone,
 
Hopefully everyone enjoyed some of the quite possibly worst bowling in club history after some minor technical difficulties. As we swiftly move onto next week’s social, KIT & COCKTAILS
 
We’ll be heading to Leam Boat Centre for 7pm. It’s a great opportunity to have a look at some kit up close and personal, get some advice and think about things you might want to buy as the year progresses.
 
Afterwards we’ll be heading to Canoe House (Sam, Beth, the other Beth, and Jakes’s) in Leam for some of the finest Cocktail making known to man (and Mocktails too!!)
 
We’ll be doing prices per cup this year. Partly because we don’t want yet another signup this term and so brother can subsidise the social for the rest of us.
Please, Please click going if you’re coming along so we have an idea of numbers: https://fb.me/e/3MNsaSShz
 
Social Love,

><> ><> Warwick Canoe Polo As tournament <>< <><

Posted 3y 0mth ago by James Hickmott

Ciao all,

 

We're pleased to announce that this year, our As tournaments are back, and signups are now open.

This will be from around 14:30-20:00 on Saturday the 19th. Anyone is welcome to sign up, however, this does not guarantee you a spot, this will be determined by the number of signups we get, but feel free to sign up if you would like to be considered.

There will be many other unis there, so it's a good chance to play against a variety of abilities. Thankfully this is taking place in the Warwick pool, so there's no need to travel, and it's also completely free!

If you don't make the team this time, there's no need to worry, we will be hosting a Bs and ladies tournament later in the year, so there should be a good chance for everyone to compete.
