Although the semester is over, and our weekly training sessions are somewhat more informal and non-compulsory, we still hope to see everyone coming down for our training sessions and other club events that we may have.

So yupps, hope to see you all during the next training session (next training session I won't be there!!! but still come anyways =P), which will be held at SRC outdoor courts, 6pm next Friday (22nd May 2009).

Let's play vball~!!!

2009-05-12T00:42:00.002+08:00

Hey all,

You guys should have received the email asking for 2 volunteers to represent our club as technical directors in the upcoming Triennial Intervarsity Games . The event itself will take place from 4th July 2009 to 12th July 2009, but in the months/ weeks/ days leading up to the event, you would be required to attend meetings and such. The committee members are currently quite tied up with Volleyfest matters, so for those of you who require CCA points, this is a great way to earn some! =) For others, if you able to take over the role of the technical directors, please do volunteer yourself and earn some great karma!!! So please reply to the email to indicate your availability for the role alrights? Your help will be greatly appreciated!!!

Next issue...

I'm not able to book the chalet for our post-event celebration due to the piggy-flu that's currently flying around. So anyone else have any suggestions? If so, the tagboard is free for use.. =)

2009-05-10T21:51:00.002+08:00

Exams are finally over!!! *WOOHOO~!!* Hope everyone managed to survive through all the gruesome papers and spiced up your social lives after the exams! =)

Alrights, time to be serious.. we need volunteers for our upcoming Volleyfest event, and it's great that alot of you guys have indicated your willingness to help out on the day of the event. =) The event will be held on the 20th and 21st June 2009. You all should have received or will be receiving an email about this from Joel. So please do revert back to him if you are both willing and able to help out for the event alrights? =)

Please do ensure that you will be able to commit on the days that you volunteer yourself as it would assist us in the positions that you may be assigned to. =) Thanks in advance!!!

We'll see you all this coming friday during training =). Yupps, training will be on as usual this friday, 6pm at SRC...

See ya!

2009-04-23T00:37:00.004+08:00

The options are as follows:

(1) 9th may
(2) 10th may
(3) both day also can.

Please do sms/email tingting AND joel (@ 8218 4518 or email him @ chevron1985@hotmail.com - that is if you are his tao2 hua1... if not just contact tingting can already =x) with regards to your choice.

2009-04-22T00:40:00.002+08:00

So sorry for the late notice, but due to the fact that this friday is a public holiday, training has been changed to 2pm - 7pm.

2009-04-06T17:07:00.002+08:00

Hey all,

Please note that the email regarding the chalet has been sent out. If you have not received the email, please drop a note on the tagboard so that we are able to identify whoever's not on the mailing list.

In addition, for those who have already received the email, please do revert back to Cindy asap, and not to the vball email.

Thanks! =)

2009-04-05T23:37:00.004+08:00

Hey all,

We were thinking of organising a chalet over the holiday period, from the 10-12 July 2009. However, before we can book the chalet, we need to see how many of you guys are interested. Yuppz, so if you are interested, please keep a look out for the mass email that Cindy'll be sending out soon! =) Also, please do let her know if you are free to help her with the organising.

In addition, just to clarify something. This friday's training is the last training before the exams. We will still continue to have training during the holidays, and some members have proposed for beach training too! So yuppz, loads to look out for during the holidays! The training schedule will be up on this blog as usual. =)

See ya all on friday!!! =)

Beach Fiesta '09 took place today at Tanjong Beach, Sentosa! =) A couple of us took part in the competition, and we came back with burnt skin, aching limbs and loads of fun memories =)

And just like this, we come to the third and also the last day of our publicity event for volleyfest. Situated at the central forum, surrounded by blasting music and sexy colourful bikinis (haas...), we took turns to mann the booth, to prey on unsuspecting victims (just kidding!!), and of course, to make use of this opportunity to bond and to get to know each other better...

To the comm members, thanks for taking the time and effort to help out at the booth!! (even though you guys didn't really have a choice =x)... and to the other members, thanks for popping by to say hi~! =) We couldn't have done this without the support of everybody!!! =)

Orites! Photo time!!! I don't have photos of everyone!! =(( but that doesn't mean that you guys are not appreciated okays?!

All hard at work cutting flyers, doing some last minute arts and crafts with our limited arts materials! =)

2009-02-25T22:13:00.002+08:00

Hi all!

Hope everyone's surviving the recess week so far~!! =) Training this friday will be on as usual, 6pm at SRC. We understand that everyone's kinda stressed out for the upcoming midterms, but if you guys really can't make it, do let us know kays. We are not unreasonable people, and we can understand if you really can't find the extra time for training this week. =) But if you think that you could use a well-deserved break, then do come and join us!! =)

See ya all then =)

2009-02-23T22:49:00.006+08:00

A day well spent with the sun, the rain, the sand and the sea. Great company, fun activities (i.e. playing beach volley), making new friends and hopefully, forming bonds that will last us throughout our Uni life and beyond =)

Time for some serious vball!!

Jumping Jacks and Jills? =p

Group photos~!!!!

And that was a very satisfying conclusion to our rather successful sentosa outing! =) We hope you guys have enjoyed it, and we'll see you all at our next training =)

2009-02-20T23:26:00.004+08:00

Hey all,

To those of you who were able to, thanks alot for making the effort to come down for the Great Eastern talk. Because of everyone's combined efforts, not only were we able to deliver what we promised (i.e. 50 people for their talk), we exceeded their expectations by having more people than they expected!! =) So for those of you guys who managed to get your friends down to help us, a very BIG thank you to all of you!! =) Let's all work hard to make our very first VolleyFest event a large success kays?!!!

And just a gentle reminder, there is a volleyball outing to Sentosa this coming monday, the very start of recess week. It's a chance to work the tension out of your shoulders, share a major bonding session, just set a day aside to relax and tone those flabby arms before burying your faces in the books again! So rain or shine, we'll meet you guys @ 9.15am at Vivocity monorail station! =)

Lastly, training tomorrow will be from 3-7, at the outdoor courts. It's not compulsory, but still do join us if you can make it =)

See ya then!!

2009-02-08T22:41:00.003+08:00

As many of you may have heard, our club is currently in the midst of preparing for our annual VolleyFest event. Details of the event can be found on the VolleyFest website (just click on the blue tab at the right column!). Through this event, we aim to facilitate friendship and nurture bonds among volleyball enthusiasts and amateurs alike while providing a friendly and convenient platform for all to share and showcase their passion and skills.

As our current committee forms the pioneer batch of this club, it is therefore vital that we are able to organise a successful and thoroughly enjoyable event. Not only to pave the road for future committee members and to increase the profile of our club, but also to constantly improve our organization and to increase the resources of the club. We believe that this is an important factor in helping us grow as a team and as a club. However, our committee alone is insufficient in making this event a success. Thus we need help from all you dedicated members out there!!

For those who are interested in helping out for the VolleyFest by signing up in the committee, you can approach Ce Ying during our next training for more details. For others who are not interested in being in the committee for the VolleyFest but would like to help out in one way or another, there are of course many other ways that you can help us! One such opportunity here. In exchange for Great Eastern's sponsorship in this upcoming VolleyFest event, we are required to attend a talk by them. Details are as follows:

Date: 20th Feb 2009 (it's a friday)
Time: 6.15pm
Duration: less than an hour (as promised by our marketing cell =p)
Location: to be confirmed

As Fridays are our regular training days I believe all of you guys should be free right? *crosses fingers* If so, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do help us make up the numbers for the talk even though we will not be having training on that day as NUH's staff are using our courts. We'll probably be postponing our training session to Saturday evening instead. Details will be posted up again nearer to the date.

So c'mon people!! Generate some positive karma for yourself and the club!! =) If you are able to help out by attending the talk, please sms Peixian @ 9650 4884 with your name and matric number. =) Hope to hear from you all soon!!

PS: Training this Friday (13th Feb *gasps*) will resume as per normal at 6pm, outdoor courts =). Please remember to bring along $7 for your membership! C'ya!! =)

2009-02-04T23:22:00.005+08:00

Hey all, sorry to keep you guys waiting with regards to news about training this friday. Unfortunately, we weren't able to book courts within the halls or around the vicinity of NUS. So training this friday (6th February) will be cancelled, and we'll probably see you all again on the 13th February, 6pm at the outdoor courts. =)

Next issue to settle would be regarding our upcoming outing to Sentosa!! Invitation is opened to all members of the club, disregarding whether or not you are in the committee. Details are as follows:

Date: 23rd Feb 2009

Time: 9.15am - 5pm (you can come later or leave earlier, but please let Ting Ting know)

Location: Vivocity (monorail station)

Aim of activity: To BOND, get a FANTASTIC TAN and get WET!!

Interested members please do contact Ting Ting at 9295 5081. You can direct any queries through the tagboard too =)

2009-02-04T00:12:00.005+08:00

We have received an overwhelming influx of response with regards to the volleyball club membership. Thank you for your interest, but we regret to say that our vacancies have all been filled up. As a result, if you have yet to send out your email indicating your interest, you may want to try re-applying during our next recruitment drive.

For those who have received a confirmation with regards to your membership in the club, do remember to bring the $7 membership fee during the next training session. In addition, please do make the effort to come down for training on a regular basis. This is because we still have quite alot of people who are on the waiting list and who are very keen to join the club. Plus since you have already paid for the membership, might as well make full use of it right? =x

Please note that membership refund is not possible. Even though we are a recreational group, we would like to have a group of committed members, and regular attendance would really help us to be more organized. If you are not able to make it for training for some reason or another, please do inform Joel (8218 4518) for guys, and Ting Ting (92955081) for girls.

Now that you have a better understanding of what we expect from our members, if you think that you have made a mistake in joining us, it's not too late to inform either Joel or Ting Ting. If you think that you have made the right choice, then great! We say "Welcome to the club!!" =)

PS: Please continue keeping your eyes on this space for updates regarding friday's training session.

2009-02-03T19:30:00.006+08:00

We had our very first vball club outing on the 18th-19th Jan!! So time for a really belated update! =) We rented an 8-man tent from NUS ODAC and decided to get in touch with our primitive nature. Just the sea, the sand and us! =) The inside of the tent is really quite comfy, spacious too! Partly cuz there were only 6 people staying over... hahaha...

BBQ!! Cooking over a slow, smouldering fire. Chicken-wings browned to perfection, and of course not forgetting marshmellows~!!! Crisp light-brown on the outside and liquified on the inside!!

Cam-whoring sessions~!! Having fun!!

Birthday surprise! =))

Next outing on 23rd Feb 2009! Sentosa!! 9.15am at Vivocity monorail station!! Wanna join us? ;)
