A Sub-committee!!

A Sub-committee!!

We've set up a sub-committee of Sports Council called, wait for it, the Winter Tournament Organising Sub-Committee consisting of ourselves (the controllers) and anyone else we deem necessary to assist; such persons being the individual sports controllers, billetting, social and transport coordinators etc. At the moment we desperately need people to help organise billetting, the social programme and tournament ball. So if you know someone or think you might be interested in helping don't hesitate to contact us at Studass.

Well, what have we done so far? On the surface not a hell of a lot but a lot of background work has been covered. Venues for outside grounds have been booked, the gym booked, and other odds and ends such as ordering T-shirts and Sweatshirts plus numerous letter writing. All very tedious and boring no doubt to most, but we're still surviving (so far).

However, the most important work done so far has been in attaining major sponsorship from the BNZ. As you may have noticed in the heading, the tournament will be known as the BNZ Winter Tournament. This is a major step forward for the financing of these tournaments and is a move which hopefully will become a regular feature of tournaments in the future, as opposed to having to annually increase the NZUSU levy of $1.14 which is incorporated in your Sports Council Levy.

As well as financial sponsorship the BNZ is also assisting in the design of publicity material for the tournament. The first example of this should become evident in next week's Salient in the form of separate specially designed Winter Tournament ½ page, which will be a regular feature until tournament, which is only 12 weeks away.
