Member Appreciation Night (Wed. Nov. 27) & Ladder (Friday sessions)

Hi!

We hope your term has been going well. The end of the term is now fast approaching, and we want to end with a few more events described below :)

1. Board Games & Member Appreciation Night: This event will take place on Wednesday, November 27 in the CIF Gyms and CIF Meeting Room. Session will end at 10:45pm to do a prize draw for all Fall 2013 UWBC members. The prize pool value for this event is over $2000, so you don't want to miss out on some fabulous prizes!! 

To combat what will likely be a very busy session, we will also be making board games available for play in the CIF Meeting Room.

2. Ladder Nights: The ranking system has been updated to now use Microsoft's TrueSkill algorithm. Ladder nights will take place on the remaining Friday sessions of the term. Sign-in to session by 8:30pm on Friday sessions to participate in the club ladder. Players in the ladder will be placed into groups of four or five and play in a round-robin with their group. After playing, your rank may go up or down depending on how well you do. Ladder will take place on court 8.

Saturday's Session (Sept. 21)

Hi everyone,

Please note that Saturday's session (Sept. 21st) will now only be in Gym #1 due to the volleyball tournament that will now need to run in Gym #2. As such, we will only have four courts for use on Saturday. Please keep this in mind if you decide to come tomorrow as we suspect that there will be minimal play time for everyone as a result. The next session on Wed. Sept. 25 will run as normal on 8 courts.
