Hi J1 EXCO candidates!
The EXCO interviews have ended. Thank you all who stayed back late after school for the interviews; sharing with EXCO'11'12 about yourself and your personal/club goals. We are really comforted to see your desire to bring the club to greater heights and we hope you would be able to keep to your words and stay active and commited even if you are not elected. (: Now, it's time to share your plans with the rest of your batch and prove yourself to be deserving leaders of HCTKD!

COMBINED SPORTS MEET
Wednesday, May 9, 2012 / 9:44 PM

Hello everyone (:

This is for the J2s, who have to attend COMPULSORY TAEKWONDO SHOWCASE this Friday, 11th May, which is also CSM day!

All of you are excused from whatever CSM activities there are, and instead of roasting in the sun you get to come for training. Basically, we're just supposed to 'poach' the secondary 4 students from Nanyang and Hwa Chong. They will be completing certain drills with us in order to get a stamp. I'm not sure exactly what time CSM ends, but details of training are as follows:

Reporting Time: 7.30am (We need to set-up)
Training Time: 8.00am -12.00pm (Pack-up time factored in)

There will be 2 groups of you (every hour) that are not training. 1 group will be minding a booth and entertaining the lower secondary pupils; the other group will be coaching them on certain basic drills. The rest of the club will be doing circuit + sparring (:
 
Here's the schedule:
It looks extremely small on my computer, but still legible i guess :D NOTE: TRAININGIS COMPULSORY, unless you broke your leg, and upon which you can sms me at 92322858 to tell me that you won't be coming!

On a side note, many of you guys haven't been turning up for training. Just to let you know that attendance will be taken all the way until end of May when the new exco has been elected. Until then, please come for CCA.

See you guys on Friday~
Eugenia (:
