The event too paid tribute to the coaches, who played a great part in guiding the students towards their success.

One of the highlights of the event was the sending-off ceremony for 18 SIM athletes who have been selected by the Singapore University Sports Council to represent Singapore at the ASEAN University Games (AUG) held at Kuala Lumpur in December 2008.

Implementation of Club Fund Contribution

Dear All,

We'll be implementing a $5.00 pooling fee from all players during the FIRST training session of the month. This collection of fee will be done on a Monthly Basis starting from 2nd Dec 08 for Men's and 3rd Dec 08 for Women's team. The money pooled will be used soley for the interest of our players.

For example, with ready cash available, we'll be able to fund the purchase of sport specific items such as Cold Spray and Sport tapes which you'll use during training/games. Other miscellanous costs such as Bus transport for games can also be subsidised from this pool of money.

Let's work with a nominal amount of $5.00 per person. Do note that the amount will be evaluated and see if the pool is enough for our players needs and requirements.

In addition, as a measure of control and fairness for players who contributed on time, we'll impose a charge of an additional $5 for players who fail to contribute by the end of each month.

As a start, the current ICs designated to collect the money will be:

Men's Team - Joe/Rex
Women's Team - Kammy

Thanks.

Jersey for IVP 2009 and onwards

Guys, we are looking to purchase RED (home) and BLUE (away) jerseys for IVP.

Do look out for Nice jerseys within e budget of $1,200 for both Home and Away. Snap a pic and show it to us. We are looking to get the jerseys by 3rd week December. Meaning to say, we'll need to start window shopping now and placing orders soonest.

1. The club will be keeping the Jerseys and assign it to selected players for tournaments i.e. SUNig and IVP. We'll continue to wear our current Red trg kit for training and friendly games.

2. Apart from the training kits, Individuals will no longer be keeping the tournament jerseys as it presents a problem every year of getting new ones e.g. when students graduate and new players. Hence, this effectively eliminates the hassle of printing new jerseys every year.

3. To support this proposal, assuming that $1,200 is given to purchase jerseys each yaer, we can save on jersey cost and use it for purchasing training equipments instead, which would be a better option. Fyi, no money was given to us to purchase equipments this year even though it was proposed.
