Thankyou to all those who turned up and voted at the AGM. Any problems

We have recdays and social planned for
before easter. It is well worth putting your name down if you haven't
played any paintball yet this year. Come along to the socials and
catch up on all the latest news and info about YOUR club.
Check out the new picture galleries, AU Ball and Campaign
cup!!
Well welcome back all! We finished term with a bang
(well some did!), with the Christmas Fancy dress pub crawl, which
judging by the photos was a huge success and enjoyed by many. The
photos will be up as soon as i get some time (next 3 weeks hopefully!)
as i have huge amounts of final yr course work atm! DOH!! We welcome
our new social secretaries Nim and Carleigh who will be addressing
our social needs with many brilliant ideas. If you have got any
of your own... i know its unlikely, then email them. (see
contacts page). Also our new Treasurer is now the law with all
club funds. (Be nice to Mike he has the money)
If you would like to see more about the paintball
club in the Uni press then write a short article (1 page A4 ish)
and we will submit it to go into purple wednesdays!! I am sure there
are some budding reporters out there!!
If you have any good pics from rec days that you think
should go on the web then bring them in on tuesday and i will scan
them for the website!! or email me them!! alex@specialhouse.kicks-ass.net
Welcome to a new month, and another 30 days fun and
games! I hope to see as many of you as possible at the weekly club
socials, we have some regulars now which is really great, but some
of you are a little more elusive! We have a Curry Night planned
for this month (see Club Social Events page), it will be wicked.
Come along you won't regret there is a good nights fun to be had
by all!
Well, we did do it in style!! The skool uniform
pub crawl was a big success! 9 pub stops in 4 hrs then
a marathon in the Union Club 'Lux'. Drinking games, drinking
races, laughs, tears and of course songs. Especially on the safety
bus (mini bus) on the way home at the end of the night for the lucky
ones! A thank you for all those who came along. Looking forward
to the next one already ;-P
Check out the Club Paintball Events page for the up
and coming freshers liberation day! hardcore in the woods balling!
(Or whateva you want it to be ;-P)
We had a great fresher's fayre this year with over
120 new members signing up! We have lots of exciting events this
year, including over 5 Rec paintballing days, pub crawls, club socials
every week to relieve all that pressure from all the hard work everyone's
doing... well maybe ;-P We all hope to see and get to know everyone
on Tuesdays so don't be a stranger!! we don't bite,...unless you
ask of course. ;-)
2002/2003
The BBC have recently shown us on the news, with an
article about the team showing how we are progressing and explaining
tournament paintball to a wider public audience.
Planning has begun for this years Freshers Fayre.
We are looking for use of a laptop for a few days during
the first week of October, if you know of someone who is willing
to let us use one or if you have one we could borrow, we would be
most grateful.
The Team had a wicked time at the World Cup in Toulouse,
see the TEAM section for full details.
Thank you to all members who have put in effort to
the running of the Club. After all, the club is only as good as
its members!
Due to people being too busy or not giving a duck,
the end of year paintball rec day has had to be cancelled. Our next
rec day will be early next year.
Our website gets a huge number of visitors every day,
i though you might like a look at the stats, average number of visitors
a day is 22!
:
On Wednesday 20th March at Langston Campus, members
of the team were filmed for an article by Portsmouth TV. We set
up some sup' air bunkers and did some running around for the cameras.
We will be on TV on the 21st March at 3pm and there
after during the day every hour!
CHECK OUT THE PICTURE GALLERY! THE TEAM IS IN THE
PAPER!!

as we are going to France in the Summer representing the University
of Portsmouth!

The pub crawl on the 1st March was our best yet, we all ended up
in the union very pissed after having far too much blood in our
alcohol systems!

a good idea then let him know!

as part of their degree course in Internet Technology. We wish them

should be in-line for well paid jobs when they graduate.
