Does anyone remember...



THIS?

Matthew Chew, you better start running.

Friday, August 6, 2010

I know this is probably overdue but...

Training timings have changed, at least for the short term.

We are starting at 630pm now, on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This is because canoe polo has to take over the pool at 9pm, so we have to accommodate them until their competition is over sometime in late August.

After that we'll see how.

in other news......


our dear waterpologan bihu has finally scored his first goal (ever). so if you see his smug and hairy face, grab him and he will grant you anything you want.

Diyan's thoughts on the team logo designs...



"Logan u bi hu.. i know u had a free reign in designing this team logo, but it is supposed to be a true representation of us as a team. e design i see is but a selfish representation of urself, complete with the arching fibres of anal hair graceful in flight. e moment i set my eyes on the logo, i knew.. bi hu i read u like a book. u cant fool me. i know u guys wouldnt analyse e logo to such depth, so i had to made it known. i couldnt bear to let u all suffer as ignorant fools, for it is impossible not to notice this. if u think of the polo ball as logan's anus, surrounded by his impenetrable fortress of anal hair, n the lion head- his face complete with mane (which he shaves daily w his custom made gilette mach industrial strength to hide his true form).. we might as well call e design our team logon as it is nothing more than a modern caricature of logan drawn from bottom up, somewhat akin to e nude sketch of kate winslet in titanic.
guy i implore u.. do not vote.. do not be fooled.. do not let him depict us as a team of anal hair lovers.
logan.. i read u like a book. we have been enlightened, dont try to play punk."

And oh by the way, we're into the SEMIS! Yay!

Clash of the Titans

This is most definitely not a popularity contest although I don't mind winning. Anyway Matt and I were designing our new team logo. Not an EVENT logo like the NUS - GE one, but a TEAM one. Like it will end up on our team apparel and stuff in the future.

(Maximize picture to get a clear view of the colours and design. Thumbnails a bit hard to see clearly.)

So, do you prefer this (Design 1)?

Or Matt's design (Design 2) here?

Let's put this to a poll.

Attention Teletubbies gang,

*Trainings tentatively 6pm at NUS Pool on 1, 3, 5 (Updated Saturday 12th June)

Not quite Ozzy, but training has resumed!

Our Tuesday and Thursday trainings at NUS will be as usual, but starting next week, we will have additional training on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The location is not fixed, but for the first 2 weeks at least, it will be held at the CCAB pool.

Anyway, to kick start the holidays, here's something fun! I'll be giving out a special naughty prize to one of the first ten people who correctly identifies the chap in the photo below. The conditions:

1) Place your answer on the tagboard (kaobei box),
2) You must be identifiable,
3) You must state his proper name (Surname + Given Name),
4) Describe him concisely within 5 words.

Flippa Ball™ Novelty Event

What is the Flippa Ball™ Novelty Event?

The Flippa Ball™ Novelty Event is a one-day stand alone tournament targeted at young, active adults without any prior experience at Water Polo. It seeks to expose the sport of Flippa Ball™ and in turn, Water Polo to a wider audience within Singapore.

Why the Flippa Ball™ Novelty Event?

Water Polo is one of Singapore's most established sports, judging by the 23 consecutive Gold Medals won at the SEA Games. Despite that, there is little public interest in the sport; people are just more inclined towards other seemingly more glamorous sports dominated by foreign-born talents. However, things seem to be taken a slight turn, with the recent exploits of the National Water Polo team at the Laos SEA Games and 'Polo Boys' finally garnering some nationwide attention.

Flippa Ball™ is a sport taking off in various parts of the world, aimed at introducing the sport of Water Polo to beginners. We at teamNUS Water Polo see this as a valuable opportunity not only to promote our sport, but also to campaign for the development of local talents and revitalize the sporting scene within Singapore.

When and Where will the
Flippa Ball™ Novelty Event be held, and what can participants expect?

It will be held on the 16th of January, Saturday, from 12 -4 pm* at the NUS SRC Pool.
* Safety briefing at 11am.

It will be a day of endless fun! All participants will re
ceive an entry package consisting of a shirt, towel and other apparels, not to mention a very attractive goodie bag courtesy of our sponsors. There will be $1000 worth of cash vouchers and other prizes up for grabs. And most importantly, it is FREE to sign up.

How to Sign up for the Flippa Ball™ Novelty Event?

Sign up HERE!**


Form teams of 6-8 with your friends and get ready for a splash! Both guys and girls are welcome! Alternatively, if you are unable to hit 6 members, just sign up and we'll help to match you with others without a complete team.

**Participants should be comfortable in the water. Basic Swimming ability is recommended, though the pool will be shallow.
