05 Nov '12

Quick reminder guys: ACC Barnight this Wednesday at 7pm ! This is a social really worth going to so don't forget to get your tickets to avoid any disappointment!!!!!! See you there! Your social sec, Christophe Wilhelm From: Judo, Judo Sent: mercredi 31 octobre 2012 00:11 To: judo-all Subject: FIRST ACC Barnight Hi guys and girls, The time has come to celebrate your supreme athleticism. That's right, Ladies and Gentlemen, the first ACC Barnight of the year is upon us! The night will be held on Wednesday the 7th of November and has been organised slightly differently this year: Although, sadly the token system is still in place, they can now be redeemed in both FiveSixEight AND Metric! Indeed, the entire union is now open to the ACC Barnight. Tickets details are as follows: · £7 for 4 drink tokens + exclusive access to Metric · £3 for VIP access to Metric only - for those sensible people among you who put top performance in sport before excessive amounts of beer...lol The theme for the night is a white party! - Anything white will do, whether it be a toga, a towel, a t-shirt, a ghost costume, your finest 007 white tuxedo or even an old judo gi!!! Moreover, in order to cater for the lovely ladies we are lucky to have at our wonderful university, standard spirits + mixers and wine are now also available when redeeming tokens! Also, the taps in the Union have been replaced this year, instead of taking 21 seconds to pour a pint, as they did last year, a pint can now be poured at an astonishing rate of 9 seconds! Three options for you to get tickets: - Email me back and I can get some and give them to you next Wednesday - Get one in the JCR or Jake will be in SAC 12pm - 2pm every day from this Wednesday until Tuesday the 6th of November - On the door from 7pm onwards For those of you who have never been: this is an EPIC social so make sure you get a ticket!

Beginners Codes, Memberships, Matches (etc!)
by Alice Mitchell 02 Nov '12

02 Nov '12

Evening all, So a few things coming up: This *SUNDAY 11.30am-1.30pm* at the Budokwai we will be having an extra training session with the guys from St Pauls college and Cambridge Judo club are coming down. The format will be training followed by matches with Cambridge. Those who don't want to fight are more than welcome to come for the training only, and afterwards there will be some refreshments. Cost is £3 only. If you want to just come and watch, it's free! Please *email me back as soon as possible with your name and weight *if you want to go! Secondly, on the *24th November (Saturday)*, we will be going to the *London Open*. It's a great competition for every level, being banded 'white-orange belt', 'green and blue belt', and 'brown and black belt'. So even if you've only just begun, you'll be fighting people of your level. It's fantastic for starting (I will testify to this as it was my first ever judo competition!), and only £16. We usually go for a meal and then onto house party (anyone fancy hosting this one???) afterwards, so also a good way to get to know everyone in the club! If you want to enter, please send the following details to *Phil ( philip.rudden09@imperial.ac.uk)*:* * - *Full Name* - *Date of Birth* - *License Number* - *Weight Category (if you know it)* - *Current Weight* - *Grade* Phil will then give you back his details to ask for payment and will enter you into the competition. The deadline is fast-approaching, so* get entered as soon as you can*! *For our beginners: *If you're *not signed up *for the Student Voucher Booklet Scheme, please* reply to this* and I'll make sure you're put on the list. It's a great way to get hold of a load of free stuff, including your British Judo License (you must have this in order to train in Judo), and a judo suit for £6. If you're *on the list *and need a code to get your free license and your gi, give me a quick mail and I will send you your code. Once you've had your four free sessions, please remember to* buy membership(you can buy membership here<https://www.imperialcollegeunion.org/shop/club-society-project-products/jud…> ),* and *pay the reduced mat fees (found here<https://www.imperialcollegeunion.org/shop/club-society-project-products/jud…> ).* Mat fees are a termly payment to help cover the cost of ground and coach hire, and it's vital that everyone pays their fair share so we can continue with our training. If you feel you've got the basics of judo, please come along to our other training sessions as well, it'd be great to see some more new faces there! We train at: * Weds 1-3pm at the Budokwai (4 Gilston Road, SW10 9SL) Friday 7.15-9pm at Ethos Dance Studio* *For non-beginners:* Sorry, nothing so exciting as freebies for you lot, just a quick note to please *pay membership (here<https://www.imperialcollegeunion.org/shop/club-society-project-products/jud…> ) *and* mat fees (here<https://www.imperialcollegeunion.org/shop/club-society-project-products/jud…> )*. I can access a list at any time, and will be hunting you down individually if you haven't paid soon. So first, big Chris will come and rugby-tackle you to the ground and then politely (or not so politely, depending on his mood) ask you to pay mat fees until you promise to. Failing that, I will chase you with a blunt sword!!! So please pay :) Sorry for the long email, but I hope the colourfulness made it more bearable! Much Judo love, Alice Club Captain

Sheffield Uni Kyu Tournament- 3rd Nov
by Judo, Judo 17 Oct '12

17 Oct '12

Hello again, Even more competition news! On Saturday 3rd November, Sheffield university is holding a kyu grade competition (coloured belts) which promises to be a good one for those not long into the sport as well as some of the more advanced players. The grade boundaries are: Novice- Orange belt Green and Blue belts Brown Belts (point scoring) Obviously there is a logistical issue with travelling all the way to Sheffield, but I have been in touch with someone at Sheffield Judo club and may have a solution. Since weigh in is at 9 in the morning, we would have to travel up the night before and he has told me that it is likely people in the club will be able to put us up for the Friday night (sofas, floors= sleeping bags). I have looked into travel and the cheapest option would be to get a coach (4 hour journey) there and back, which along with a few taxis/buses to get to and from venue, is likely to cost in the region of £20-25 roughly (entry will be £15 on top of this). Sheffield Uni will have the same problem for the london open come November, so I suggested that if someone from their club gives you a place to stay for the comp, then you should offer a place for them for the London comp. Obviously, if you really can't accommodate people, don't be put off; but if you can, please do (otherwise it is a little bit out of order to expect it from them!)- sofas/floorspace is perfectly adequate. Please get back to me if you're interested, so I can tell him how many of us would need accommodation. Email: philip.rudden09(a)imperial.ac.uk Philip Rudden Comp Sec PS. There is nothing stopping you making alternate travel/accommodation plans if you want to, eg: staying with a friend, taking the train. --- Imperial College Judo Club w: http://www.union.ic.ac.uk/acc/judo e: judo(a)imperial.ac.uk
