this week's schedule

I just received an updated schedule from Coles. Due to an alumni wrestling match, there will be no badminton this Friday. There will also be no badminton the following Friday, October 31 (so you can all go out and party on Halloween!).

The Sunday schedule for the next two weeks will be as follows:

5-7:30-team practice
6:15-7:30-recreational club on two courts

New members, I apologize, but you will have to wait until our next open Friday practice (November 7) to join. To all, the volleyball court adjacent to the badminton courts will usually be empty during our practices so you are always welcome to use that area to hit around. Please e-mail me if you have any questions/comments/concerns.

This week's schedule

Hi everyone!
 
 Sending out an e-mail a bit earlier this week so you guys can plan your weekends.
 Three things in this e-mail:
 1. This week's schedule
 2. Buddy system
 3. NYU Fall Foliage Classic 5K Fun Run/walk (Sunday, Oct 19th AM), response required ASAP
 
 1. Due to a volleyball tournament at Coles there will be no badminton this Friday. So here is our revised schedule for the week:
 
 Friday: NO BADMINTON (go party, have fun!)
 Sunday: 5-6:30 team practice; 6:30-7:30 recreational club
 (Team practice will continue on the volleyball courts from 6:30-7:30)
 
 Again, I won't be taking any new members since we do have reduced times this week as well. (46 rec club members showed up last week)
 
 

2. The buddy system will begin next Friday. I"ll send out an e-mail sometime this week with the buddy pairs to those who signed up. I'd still like 2 more team members to volunteer themselves if possible.
 
 3. And a message from NYU club sports:
 What are you and your team doing on Sunday, October 19th?  Planning a conditioning session?  Giving the team a day off?  Not sure yet?  Well…we have a great team building and conditioning session for everyone!
 How about a fun filled morning in the outdoors?  You can run or walk the beautiful course of Van Cortlandt Park.  A 3.1-mile scenic journey that can be a competition or a bonding adventure…it’s your choice! 
 It’s the NYU Fall Foliage Classic 5K Fun Run/Walk.  It will be held at Van Cortlandt Park on Sunday, October 19th.  Start time is scheduled for 9:00 AM, but our bus transportation will leave from in front of Coles Sports Center at 7:30 AM sharp. 
 With some food, beverages, t-shirts (to the first 100 pre-registered participants), fitness and beautiful foliage, what else can you ask for? 
 
 

Please let me know if you are interested so that we can try to get free t-shirts! I'd like to pre-register by this Friday.
 

Okay, that's all for now. Cheers,
 Emily
