T- 30 hours till ball throwing....

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 2y 5mth 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 2y 5mth 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

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

Posted 2y 5mth 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.

Week 5 Bowling 🎳

Posted 2y 5mth ago by Emma Hymas

Evening Everyone,

As we reach the midpoint of term 1, it’s time to enjoy one of the more extreme socials of the year, that’s right. Bowling. Prepare to devastate some pins and make the obligatory Wii bowling shout as you fight with your lane mates about whether to allow bumper use or not.

The cost of all this fun is a mere £10, which nets you 2 games and a beverage of your choosing.

We’ll be heading to Tenpin bowling in Leamington for 8pm, and there will be a pub opportunity afterwards for those interested

Signups for this social will close midnight on Monday to give us time to book lanes so please sign yourself up here: https://warwickcanoe.uk/trips/trip.php?trip_id=124 and transfer £10 to the social account to secure your place.

If you dont have the details, just drop me a message and i'll send them over :)

Social Love,

TIME TO BUY MEMBERSHIP +BURSARY

Posted 2y 6mth ago by Adi Cormack

TL;DR- Buy membership to continue to come along to sessions, both clubs need an 'on-campus' membership, the sports officer bursary is an opportunity for those struggling financially to still be able to participate in sport

Hey everyone it's me again talking about memberships...

It is really important that you have bought membership if you want to keep coming to the sessions. Without it, you will be refused entry into the pool.

Both clubs are 'on campus' sports and so require you to buy:

Sports Federation Student Membership
Club Pass Membership Fee (ON CAMPUS)

Afterwards, it will just cost £6 to buy the standard membership for both clubs. We recommend you buy both to ensure you can make the most out of your paddling experience at university and all we have to offer!

We do understand however, that this is an expensive cost and so the SU Sports Officer (Emma Birch) has a bursary set up designed for those students who face financial hardship but demonstrate a passion for sport and want to be able to participate. More information can be found here: https://forms.office.com/r/8V7MZxS815

If you require any more information feel free to contact me, Sam, our club welfare officer Toby or any of the other exec who will be happy to help!

More information can also be found about the clubs here:

Canolo love,
