Training Today (Falmer Bar Session)

Training today is officially cancelled due to the snow and really hard ground. I went down there this morning and the ground wasn’t rock solid but would potentially cause injury due to you not being able to see where you are putting your feet. Therefore it is advised that you don’t go and use Stanmer Park either.

I propose that we all go to Falmer Bar (I will be there from 2pm) and have an afternoon of watching ultimate (I will bring DVDs), playing pool/darts, playing mafia or anything else you like doing after a Wednesday training.

See you later.

Week 3

Hello everybody, how doing

Just a couple of ultimate related thoughts for you as you tackle the third week of Spring term, not too many but one or two!

BLOGS

So far we have three blogs written for your enjoyment. Thanks to Shim, Meg & Taxi for their contributions thus far – I look forward to the next set. Please read them everybody, and comment. They’re good stuff and those guys have spent a while preparing them and putting them up for you to read, so get on it and show some love! Have a discussion about the points they raise and challenge them, and each other.

These are accessed via the homepage.

TRAINING THIS WEEK

This week from 13:00-14:30 we are doing Mixed specific training. If you’re a girl then please come along! If you’re a guy then Kneetu will be in touch. If he doesn’t then please come from 14:30. You’re welcome to come earlier for a throw around but won’t be able to join in with the Mixed stuff.

If in doubt: email Kneetu ([email protected]) and he will let you know. I’m not a boss of training so I am fairly clueless.

SOCIAL

I have not been told of anything in particular for this week. I would love it if you all came to Falmer bar after training, mind. If there is one this week then Pete/Faron will post it up somewhere, if they’ve recovered from last week’s one yet, that is.

CHEERIO

See you soon folks,

Small Update

Hey one and all, how doing?

Just a few things going on that I would like to bring your attention to…

HOMEPAGE

We are going starting to announce things through the homepage much more now and, if I get my way, less of the informative stuff that doesn’t need a discussion necessarily will not go onto the forum as often. What this means is that you need to check the homepage more often and use the tabs there. You will notice that I added this week’s social to the social tab on the homepage – go check it out! [It is just Faron’s forum post, skillfully copied and pasted into that section – I’m pretty good].

AND you will be able to read this email again, and again, and again, by clicking on the “Mohawk Emails” (or “Mohawk News” as I am putting it there, too) tab on the homepage. Lucky you!

TRAINING

Again there is a post about this on the homepage so please go read. Training for the masses begins at 14:30 on Wednesday. Currently the 13:00 slots have been Open/Women divide but at some choice weeks they will be a mixed session meaning that a slightly different subsection of the club will be invited from 1pm. Captains will announce this soon (on the homepage!) so if you hear that it is a Mixed week and Kneetu has not been in touch then come along at 14:30, even if you *normally* come at 13:00 when it is Open & Womens. Hope this makes sense – don’t worry too much. Captains will be in touch I am sure if anything changes from the previous couple of weeks.

SOCIALS

These exist. As I said, check the homepage for details of this week’s (Friday night at Lucky Voice from 20:30, just for the record). Come along – it’ll be fun. Its not often you get the chance to share a cocktail with yours truly so don’t waste the chance. Get your work done (or save it until the weekend) and come along, even if just for a little bit. I’ll be wearing normal clothes and will be fairly clean shaven so its an opportunity too good to be missed, so don’t miss it!

GOODBYE

With love from Therapist

Training Clarification

This message is just to clarify what is happening at training this term in case anyone is confused.

Training for everyone will be from 2.30pm onwards

From 1pm until 2.30pm the time will be use for specific Open, Women’s and Mixed Training. You will have been notified if you are involved in these sessions. If you want to come along and throw around at 1pm that is fine but you will not be involved in the training session.

I hope this makes everything clear. Any questions, please ask Ashley.

Sunday trainings this term

Hey one and all,

The committee have had a chat and feel it is right that Sunday trainings (the indoor slot) should primarily be for the women as they still have indoor competitions this term. This means that if you are a male coming along please bring both indoor shoes and your football boots. If the weather is OK then we will head outside and let the women use the time more productively.

If you’ve real issues with this idea then please say so, but bear in mind that this has been put in place so that the women have the best opportunity possible to prepare fully for their indoor season. This also means that women should make a huge effort to come along to the indoor session to make Lucy’s life wonderful. If only three women turn up then obviously we will stick to most people being indoors (I imagine).

Hope to see you all tomorrow!

Spring term from Therapist

Hey all, happy 2012.

Sorry this is a couple of days late, I will say that I have been busy. Yep. Busy. Anyway, welcome back. I hope you’re all nicely setlling back into Uni life and learning lots, just a couple of quick things about this week.

Check the homepage for details on training. As an aside – hopefully the homepage will be used a bit more this coming term so keep checking it for details of trainings/socials/etc – they won’t all be posted on the forum (probably).

As for social on Wednesday – nothing official planned yet but be sure to plan Wednesday evening in Falmer bar, with a view to probably going some place slightly more exciting. We’ll see. Either way, after training come along to Falmer bar and hang out for a while.

That’s all for now. Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow!

Training this term will be on Wednesdays from  2.30pm (unless you’ve been invited to first team squad training) and it would be good to see you all there again this Wednesday.

So, Russell’s Clump, Wednesday 2.30pm, bring boots and light and dark tops 🙂

End of Term Round-up

Last weekend Mohawks went to Open Indoor Nationals and came 5th.  This weekend Mohawks are sending two teams to Mixed Indoor Nationals, one team in each division.  Follow their progress on twitter

Its also week 10 next week and that means Christmas! On Tuesday there is the ice skating following by the Christmas dinner, then on Wednesday its the Christmas practice from 1:30pm.  Bring weird (strong) drinks along to help you get through the activities and games.  Thursday we’ve got the going-out fancy dress social.

Some other things you need to know.

  • Monday on week 10 is Brighton Ultimate’s own pub quiz.  Its after monday night training at the Hove Rugby Club.  If you’ve been to any Brighton club practices then you’re welcome to this event
  • Thoughts to Robbie who got badly injured at Open Indoor Nationals. Bounce back with vengeance!
  • Jessie is putting together a Mohawk badminton tournament.  If you’re interested get involved.
  • No reason why Friday practice wont be on on the last day of term.  We also go to the pub afterwards and so if you’re on campus that afternoon, pop along.
  • Sunday practice this coming Sunday.  Last sunday practice until next term
  • There are a couple of fun tournaments over the christmas period that a couple of us are going to.  Iron Fives and Slingfest.  I’ll put results on twitter for those that are interested nearer the time.  They are next weekend and the weekend after that.
