Calling all members: GAMES NIGHT IS BACK ON!
Due to popular demand, our weekly games nights are returning for the semester! As always these are open to all our members. At least one night week (usually Thursdays at 7.30pm unless stated otherwise through social media/wolves) we will play easy to use, interactive multiplayer games that will be posted in the Events section of the Wolves Club Page and through the Whatsapp. We will be hosting these nights every Thursday from 7.30pm, so feel free to drop in for a chat, a quick game or stay for the whole night! We will be playing a variety of games that are available on desktop and/or mobile like Among Us, Scribbl, Broken Picture-Phone, Codenames and many more! If you have never played the game before, don't worry - we will always give a run down of how the game works before playing. Communications will all be held through Zoom calls that will remain open for the duration of games night, so feel free to drop into one of our game' nights whenever suits. As always, links will be posted through the Events section of the Wolves page and into the Whatsapp groups. Hope to see you all there!
Really want to play a specific game? Let us know!
Drop one of the committee members a whatsapp/teamer message, or post your suggestions in general chats - we'd love to hear your suggestions for what games we should host this semester! As long as the games are suitable for all audiences and don't require specific equipment to play (like console-restricted games), we welcome any and all suggestions for this semester. With regards to the date and time of game nights, these may change through the semester due to the availability of hosts, restrictions lifting or due to any wide-spread timetable clashes it may have. If there are any changes to the date and time we will notify you through Teamer/Whatsapp and the Wolves Event for that night will reflect the change.
***As always, here at the Sub Aqua club we encourage good sportsmanship and fair play in all of our activities and events, so anyone displaying toxic or general behaviour not in line with C&S's behaviour policy will be given a warning. If the behaviour persists, you will be put in timeout.
?With all that said, we can't wait to see you all back at game nights!

Calling all Divers, UWH Players and Snorkelers - It's that time of year again!
We will be having our Annual General Meeting on Friday the 12th of February, at 07:30 pm via a Zoom Meeting and would love for you to attend. Like the EGM, this is open to all of our members old and brand new and we highly encourage you to come along! Here we will go over how the club has changed and grown since our EGM in October, especially with everything that has happened with the ongoing pandemic and the increase in restrictions for the foreseeable future.
As per usual, during the AGM the entire committee will be stepping down and re-elected. This is your chance to get onto the Sub Aqua Club committee! All positions will be up for grabs (Chairperson, Secretary, Treasurer, Vice-Treasurer, Public Relations Officer, Diving Officer, Training Officer, UWH Officer, Equipment Officer, Boating Officer, Events Officer and Ordinary Committee Member (OCM)), but be aware that these positions all have requirements that range from simply being a member of the club, to being a highly trained veteran Scuba Instructor. That said, you should always be prepared to give a hust for the popular positions!
We highly encourage some of our newer members from the semester just finished to look at joining committee, specifically for the role of OCM. You will be in the brain of the club, getting a taste of how the club is run and will be at all committee only events (like the Clubs and Societies Ball!); but fear not! The OCM (currently Sean Lynch) has the role of communicating between members to the committee (especially new trainees and players), engaging in brainstorming/planning of events and fundraisers and essentially aiding in a range diverse set of tasks. It's a fantastic way to ease into a committee setting without the stress of an intense role.
We will be discussing training procedures for Scuba and UWH on the night, the development of the club along with the events and activities we'll be running this semester. After the official meeting is over, we'd like to invite members to stick around for a virtual social evening! Here we'll just shoot the breeze and have a bit of craic before this semester really picks up! As always, feel free to ask any questions you have about the club, UWH, snorkeling, scuba, the committee, etc here.
The link to the Zoom meeting will be sent via email, through the Whatsapp group chats, through our Club Teamer and will be hosted on the Wolves event page. Please join with your full name, and we will admit you from the waiting room once we confirm it's you. Looking forward to seeing our old and new members there!
