BUCS Ref's Course and Cardiff Party
DRIVING YOUR OWN CAR FOR THE CLUB
If you drive your OWN CAR for the club, you MUST fill out and hand in a Private Vehicle Registration Form. (attached in the email IÔÇÖve sent or available from the Warwick Sport office) This is to ensure you can claim petrol back correctly. It also includes wear and tear, etc. These forms stay on file with Warwick Sport so you only need to do it once. If we try to claim petrol for someone not registered, the finance office may refuse to pay out. So, please do this!!! Thanks, Harriet
BUCS Canoe Polo
When? 15th-17th April (The email was wrong.)
How Much? Free
Who? Well... the captains, coach and exec pick the teams. BUT, signup if you want to and available to play.
How do I signup? Go to the website, and either signup in the A/B signup or the Ladies signup. If you get the wrong signup, you're not coming! You must signup ASAP. Ideally, by tomorrow evening, or by the end of the week with a good excuse. We need to submit teams, and the B/Old Gits leagues are first come first served.
REAL AAAALE!!!
This week sees not only the biggest social of the canoe club year, but also the best night of the year in the union.
On Thursday we'll be going to see Dr Busker  at the Real Ale festival in the union. For those of you who haven't heard such Busker greats as Drunk and Disorderly, any drink will do and panda wanker, here's an example of what's to come http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xalUyAcCzVo
don't worry if you're not a beer drinker, as well as over 100 ales, they also have ciders, mead and fruit wines.
The event starts at 6pm and will cost £3, sadly tickets are only available on the door.
There is also a 9 pint cask for the best pirate costume, so find those eye patches and longjohns and prepare for a brilliant night of drunken debauchery.
See you Thursday

Easter Tour!
The most exciting week of the year is almost here once again! That being... WARWICK CANOE EASTER TOUR! What? WeÔÇÖre heading to Scotland for 7 days (+2 for travelling) and we want you to join us! WeÔÇÖll be spending our days paddling and evenings being merry! When? We will be setting off on March 29th and heading home on April 6th. Where? We plan to paddle the Inverness and Fort William areas. This should give us a good range of rivers and an incredible paddling experience! Cost? We ask for just ┬ú170 for you to take part in this paddling extravaganza, covering accommodation & travel costs (price is provisional and may change very slightly). YouÔÇÖll need to pay for your own food, but if people cook as a group this shouldnÔÇÖt be too expensive. Incredible... but what do I do now? Signup for this epic tour will open at 5pm on Wednesday 9th February and places with be given on a first come first served basis. For those of you unsure if your paddling ability is suitable for tour do not worry! We encourage you to signup anyway. (Signups arenÔÇÖt confirmed until the exec have checked them, but if we do have any concerns, weÔÇÖll happily discuss these with you). ThatÔÇÖs all folks! So for a week of Scottish highlands, immense paddling and witty banter - get yourselves signed up for the most EPIC tour of 2011! From your amazing Tour Sec, LSD
Cardiff Tournament
Hi all,
We are putting in THREE teams (A, B and a ladies teams) for the annual tournament in Cardiff. It's an awesome weekend and a perfect warm up if you're hoping to be on the BUCS team. It's played on pitches outside (the same as BUCS) so it's ideal traning. You will also be playing teams at a similar level to BUCS so it's perfect to get an idea of what you're up against!
So when is this occuring I hear you ask? It's the weekend of week 7 (i think) which is the 26th and 27th of February. Exact details will go out nearer the time but we will be leaving on the friday afternoon/evening I expect.
There is also a social on the saturday evening so you'll be getting a lot out of your weekend in Wales! 
But that is not all! There is also a tournament in Bristol on the 12th of February which is an evening do. This is the day before the Spring tournament and also the same day as the ladies league in Cheltenham. There are already 6 people signed up be we are in desperate need of a driver, either a car with roof racks or a university van/minibus driver
Sign up for both tournaments are open now!

(Reminiscent of last night anyone?)
This theme couldnÔÇÖt be easier; torn clothes, smeared make-up, matted hair, fake blood, carrying traffic cones and eating kebabs...no one would start a night eating Viallis...
Remember to book tickets in advance,
Looking forward to it already
