Mixed Regionals – HOSTS NEEDED

Hey Mohawks,

I have a massive favour to ask of you guys!

Firstly thanks again to all those who hosted at Open Regionals – you guys are legends and my new favourite Mohawks!

However I am going to ask you guys all again if anyone can host this coming weekend for mixed?

The benefits

– girls are a lot cleaner and less smelly than boys and therefore your house will be 50% less smelly and 50% more clean

– I will love you, and Prossie-Love isn’t empty and meaningless at all

– Brand new friends from different universities who will respect you and all your life decisions

The costs

– None

After studying the extremely scientific analysis above, you will see that hosting is an awesome thing – PLEASE GET IN TOUCH WITH ME

If you don’t have my number, now you can! 07817201638 – or facebook me, whatever, like.

 

THANKS GUUYYYYS!

Prossie x

Practice tomorrow (Friday 9th November) – Outdoors!

Hi everyone,

Tomorrow’s indoor session is a Mixed invite-only practice for the first and second mixed teams to get ready for regionals. I have already been in touch with those who I am hoping will come.

As ever though there will be an unofficial outside practice on Stanmer Park (please don’t use Russell’s clump – we don’t have it booked). Come in to the sport centre to get discs/cones from the cupboard (I’ll be there just after 1:30pm to help you if you need) and get playing!

Team lists: Mixed Regionals 17th-18th November

Hi everyone,

The last and greatest of the three indoor regional competitions is coming in a couple of week’s time. Again hosted at BACA, so (almost) no travelling involved! Not this coming weekend, but the one after  – 17th/18th November.

Mohawks have four teams entered, meaning lots of people get to play in the most fun division in ultimate.

The team lists are below. I have spoken to almost everyone on the teams, but if I haven’t and it turns out you can’t make it please let me know asap so I can replace you! If you aren’t on a team I’m sorry if you are disappointed. It is incredibly hard picking from the whole club, trying to balance genders, abilities and development of players. Please don’t feel disheartened, and if you want to ask me about my decision then please do.

Now seems a good time to say – if you haven’t yet filled out this form: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dDNHbjlEbG5pZ1BQVWthbWdHTWl5bkE6MQ#gid=0 … please do so NOW. It will make it much easier for captains to contact you regarding team selections in future. And it will mean I can ring you if you don’t turn up for your 9am game!

In no particular order (but ladies first)…

Hammertime!

Hey guys,

So this weekend there is no official tournament, however Kent Touch This (Kent University) are hosting an awesome hat tournament called Hammertime!

 

The tournament takes place in Canterbury – we will take an early train there on the Saturday Morning (if enough of us go it will be super cheap through the use of group savers) – the tournament is free so all you need to pay for is food and train fare!

 

The way a hat tournament works is that you are put in a team with random other players, however at Hammertime, teams have themes, which also involve some form of costume…

 

I cannot stress enough how fun this weekend is (we will be home by Sunday lunch time, accommodation will be provided) especially for Freshers who want to improve, but want to have LOADS of fun at the same time (plus the Saturday night party is frickin awesome)

 

Text me (Prossie) if you are interested – 07817201638

and more info can be found here…

http://www.facebook.com/events/508921499135582/?ref=ts&fref=ts

Let me know ASAP so accommodation and train can be sorted – don’t hesitate!!

Prossie x

Newsletter Week 6/7

Hey Hawks Young and Older,

 

Open Regionals

Firstly, well done to all the people that played this weekend. Entering 5 teams into a regional tournament is almost unheard of – countless people from other teams over the weekend were so impressed by what Mohawks as a club have achieved, so well done! Talking of achievements, once again well done to Mo1 for winning (keep it up!). My favourite stat of the weekend was when the top 12 teams got frozen in place. Among those 12 teams were 10 first teams, Mo2 and Mo3 – absolutely incredible that not only can we have a presence at a tournament like we did, but we can also do amazingly on the pitch as well!!

 

Training

For freshers and beginners this week, training starts at the new time of 2:30! Due to daylight running away, we want you guys to have as much time as possible to train so get there 30 mins early to get maximum training!

 

Social

There is a social this week happening tomorrow… Ask Mette and Maggie – there should be something on the forum very soon!

On Friday, Fetu and Meg and James are hosting the 2nd annual UV RAVE PARTY!! Last year was absolutely incredible – come along – bring UV paint, lots of white stuff, and even more alcohol – it will be SPECIAL. More details can be found of facebook – ask Fetu tomorrow for more information like address and the like – all Mohawks are invited.

 

See you guys very soon

Prossie x

IMPORTANT – Regionals teams and times changes.

Hi all,

So due to masses of people dropping out, we have had to pull one of the teams out of regionals :(

People have been shuffled around in teams so check the lists below to see where you are now!
Everyone who wants to play is still playing, just check what team you are now on.

(Mo 6 will become a pick up game on the schedule).

Here is the Schedule. Please check it to see when you start.

Mohawks 1,2 & 3 will be starting at or very soon after 9am.

Mohawks 4 & 5 will be starting at or very soon after 1.20pm.
The venue this weekend is very close to campus but hidden away a bit so here are some directions which should get you there safely!

It is at BACA (Brighton Aldridge Community Academy)

http://www.baca-uk.org.uk/contact-us/how-to-find-us/

From campus:
1. Walk out of university along the path which is the entrance the buses come into campus on towards Brighton.
2. When you reach the crossroads where the traffic lights are, go under the bridge and then straight on.
3. You should see a tunnel ahead of you with a no entry to cars sign, go through that tunnel.
4. Ahead of you up a slight hill on your left you should see a big car park and a large glass looking building. The tournament is in there!

Also, please pay £15 to Ash for the tournament. If you do not pay before 9am Monday morning then this will go up to £20! Once you have paid, email Ash ( [email protected] ) with your name, reference and amount paid. Just make sure you put [YOUR NAME] and TOURNAMENT MONEY in the reference.

Details for payment are:
Mr Ashley Yeo
