Renegades playing volleyball in the nude!

...ok, so nobody's actually playing nude volleyball (though there have been persistent rumors of some related shenanigans on an old volleyball ski trip), but unless people give back their tops ASAP we will be!

Currently the women don't have enough red shirts to cover their 3 teams, with only 16 red shirts currently accounted for. It was only 2005 when the women had approximately 50 brand new shirts! When each new shirts costs the club $45, that adds up to a whole chunk of money that we'd much rather spend on new balls, more coaching, social functions, beer, pretty much anything that doesn't involve the wasted effort and money of organising shirt purchases.

The men (excepting the div 2 blues team) seem to be faring slightly better, mostly thanks to the individual efforts of Gus and other coaches chasing people around, but even they're still missing 25% of their tops from this year.

These shirts don't vanish, they end up in the back of wardrobe's pining for their glory days when they were taken out each week in all their proud bright red (or blue for those who went that way) splendour and paraded on court with their friends. Don't deny your shirt it's right to show off and absorb righteous volleyball sweat! If you're a past or present Renegade we need you to check your cupboards and return any playing shirts that you find.

If you want to reunite your top with the club, contact Jess (zitah6@hotmail.com) or Eric (eric@ejort.com) and it will soon be back on court terrorising all those who would take on Renegades. Operators are standing by.
