Hey kayaking team!
alright, as you guys know, tomoro, monday the 28th of april will be the first freshmen training.. so all of us have to work together to make it a successful one for us, and an enjoyable one for the juniors!
So basically, this is the "training programme" for the freshmen tomoro...
..and...if its possible, try to make it to the clubroom as early as possible, so we can do some minor planning before the juniors get here. if u can manage it, be at the clubroom at 5pm.

To be conducted together:

2nd game: Telematch between 5 groups. (20 mins) (2groups at once) [Semi circle]

you guys MIGHT want to print that out... so at least u know what's going on, and not be as lost as the juniors.
okay if u guys dont already know, the seniors will continue training during the juniors waterbreak. this is to ensure that our standards dont drop. also, i urge all of you to find time to do self training, find maybe an hour during the day to run or gym.
as u guys know, the first training is important for the freshmen, it could determine whether they stay or leave, so as seniors, we have to show them our discipline, our physical prowess, and of course, our TEAM SPIRIT!
Lets make it a good orientation, TOGETHER, as the NYP KAYAKING TEAM, ALRIGHT!!
(OH, and the dress code is the GREEN JERSEY. for EVERYONE.)
