Australian University Games - 2005 Queensland Sports Federations' Event of the Year

Melbourne University 'Cats' and 'Tiger' will be piling into assorted vehicles and road tripping over to Adelaide for another crack at AUG glory (whether that be medals or just AUG participants of their preferred sex).

Unfortunately the days of VSU are already upon us and of last years top 4 women's teams, the Cats are the only team back for Adelaide, but there's still the ever strong USA and a contingent of top quality Victorian sides standing between them and going one better than last years silver.  The men are also looking like medal contenders with a strong side of 12 consistent players ready to further the Tiger spirit and carry The Hamilton onto further glory.

Good luck to both teams on court (and off)! 

As the tournament approaches it's time for us to get together so we can:  

1.   Pick a team from the 18 or so girls who have expressed an interest;
2.   Start training;
3.   Practice our ace serve 'dance'

After this session I'll pick the squad and submit our team list to Melbourne Uni as well as discuss future training times/venues (probably Melbourne uni on a Monday or Wednesday night).   If you want to play at this years AUG (and yes, it's awesome fun so trust me when I say you do), then make sure you get to this session.  If you can't possibly make it (even in an injured state), the let me know ASAP, otherwise I won't know you're interested will I?  For those of you who are transport challenged, there'll be a few people driving past uni, so email me and I can arrange something for you.
