Advice - Climb with the rope behind your leg, fall = ropeburn!

Hi J2s, this is how your payment is going to be done:

First of all, as we are under CORE, the school will be paying for ONCE a week. So those who went twice a week will only pay for one session, while those who went for once a week, it's under school.(ONLY THOSE IN CORE).

Secondly, you wouldn't have to pay for your session, as we will be deducting from your 30$ base money which you would've passed to me in the beginning of the year. So Nadia would only be returning you the amount of money AFTER deducting your climbing sessions.

SO FIRST, this is the number of times you have went and owe(after deducting school's payment) & for non-core, no deductions. :

Ji hae 2
Gab 4
Wai leong 1
russell 2
Cheng 1
zhi hao 1
clarence 4
amanda 2
hoe son 4
joshua 3
nicole 1
shawn 3
steph
vito 2
alvin 1
fay 3




AFTER DEDUCTING FROM YOUR 30$ ( I know its so troublesome, but mrchua told me to do it this way ), NADIA NOW OWES YOU :

Ji hae 18$
Jun Hui 30$
Gabriel 6$
Waileong 24$
Russell 24
Cheng 24
Zhi Hao 24
Clarence 6
Cindy 30
Amanda 0
Hoe Son 6
Joshua 12
Nicole 24
Shawn 12
Steph 30
vito 18
alvin 24
fay 12

Just incase you get confused, Amanda, you have to pay $12 because you didn't give any base money. THE REST JUST WAIT FOR YOUR MONEY. ANY QUESTION, PLEASE SMS/CALL/EMAIL/LOOK FOR KIM JI HAE.


thanks(:

Training

Hey J2s,

This wednesdays training at CA is optional. It will very much be self training over there. There will be training this Saturday at Yishun Safara from 9am-2pm. Please dress appropriately because we will be speeding and leading.

Important Note: Training schedule has been changed.
Monday - Coreteam climbasia training, 1800-2130
Wednesday - Climbasia training for all, 1540-1930
Saturday - Yishun Safara training, 0900-1400

This training schedule should maintain this way for the next 3-4 weeks to prepare us for upcoming NSSCC. Please adjust your schedules for the next few weeks to fit this. Note that PT has been removed from the schedule, instead PT will be done right after our training sessions at Climbasia and Yishun.

Our competitions remaining will be NSSCC ( mid april ) and Pumfest ( end of may ). Our rock climbing career in SAJC is going to come to a stop soon. We have two months left to train and to win something for the Team. It will be hard juggling schoolwork and CCA. I sincerely hope that everyone will maintain a positive attitude and put in their best efforts to make the last two months left worthwhile!

A word from the coach...

Hello kids! Seeing you gals and guys slug it out makes me happy. Please carry on the hard work. Trust me, you'll miss it when the time to mug comes.

So to inspire you, here are some inspirational quotes.

"Pain is temporary, Glory is forever!"

"Champions do not become champions when they win the event, but in the hours, weeks, months and years they spend preparing for it. The victorious performance itself is merely the demonstration of their championship character." - T. Alan Armstrong

"2nd place is 1st loser" - Dale Earnhardt

My favourites -
"The best climber is the one having the most fun" - Alex Lowe
"You are never a loser until you quit trying." - Mike Ditka

Please take note

That I will be carrying out a fitness test for all of us sometime soon (probably in the next 3 weeks), so please be prepared. Most probably it will be on a non-training day so it won't interfere with training, but it can also be on a training date. Doesn't really matter though, just be prepared.

Training

Hi team,

There will be PT this friday from 1540 to 1840. Why the weird timing? Ive decided to give everyone 10 more minutes to change before PT. For the following week, training will be on Wednesday at Climb Asia from 1530 to 1830. I would like to start this year on a better note. Theres many things ongoing in JC, exams, homework, CCA, other commitments. We can all relate to each other. I hope that everyone will be brave enough to step up to the challenge and overcome them. So of course, leave adequate time for all your activities. I know that its sometimes very hard to juggle work and CCA, but with the right attitude we can manage it.

There are some things that I would like everyone to take note
Note:
1. I would like to remind you that training days are always MON, WED,FRI ( Any two days),
there should be no reason for you to be busy on these days.

2. Training has always been 3hrs long, so no reason to be leaving before training ends.

3. I think most of all of us have forgotten some basic courtesy that we should be adopting. If you are unable to come for training, inform fay at least 1 day in advance. When you receive a sms, pls remember to reply so that we know. Even durng training, please inform the person in charge of the programme that you are leaving b4 leaving so that we can account for you.

I'm going to be quite serious about training attendance and other activities. I would like some order in our CCA, its not going to be a CCA meant for slackers if you thought so. So please do not test us. On the part of the excos, we will also try to improve our system of working such that it will benefit everyone.

I'm hoping that everyone will have a better year ahead. Lets try to put in our best efforts for this race. Lastly, I hope we will enjoy our last year together.
