Sports Week

page 24

Sports Week

Sports Week has been designed to publicise sports in general and specifically the clubs which administer sports here at Victoria. Originally it was hoped that this would coincide with the opening of the Recreation Centre; however this will not now be completed until the third term.

Twenty-five sports clubs are participating and many of them are inviting nonmembers to become involved. Sports Council have co-ordinated the Clubs programme and in addition are holding a tug-of-war, a 'Super Stars' competition and a hop to conclude the week's events.

Sports Week Needs you

Sports Week is your chance to break out of study boredom and widen your interest on campus - sports clubs have taken the initiative to advertise the activities and if it is to by successful we need You - Joe and Josephine Student - to honor your offers and support the clubs. If something interests you and you've got a lecture, skip it - it won't make any difference and you may well discover something worthwhile. Sports Committee has felt in the past that sports clubs have found it difficult to sell their sports - sports week gives them this opportunity. They're keen — show New Zealand students are not apathetic. Involvement is your choice, make a positive response before University puts you in a rut!
