University of Strathclyde Ultimate: Dark Horses

Reminder about the flat party tomorrow!

To kick off the social year, Kai is kindly hosting a flat party tomorrow evening. (Thursday)
We'd love to see as many people there as possible - so please invite all your friends, enemies, classmates, flatmates, parents, and guardians.

We'll have good music (up to who's on the speaker), good chat (up to you), beer (or your choice of non-alcoholic beverage) pong and other games!

We've had a great time at the Come-and-Try sessions, excited to carry on the fun with a good old fashioned gaff!

More details on the FB Group, in the WhatsApp and Messenger chats, or in any good bookstore.

Send us a message here or on instagram if you're not in any of those groups and you would like to know more!

See everyone there!

WELCOME (and WELCOME BACK) EVENING (+ FREE BEER OPPORTUNITY)

TL;DR: Club Social. Tomorrow. Bar Home. 7:45pm. Good drinks, cheap food, questionable chat. FREE BEER if you are there sharp! React to this if you can make it!

Hello new and returning Dank Ponies! 🐎

Social SecRutary here with the first plans of the semester!

📆 Plans are afoot for a big social to kick off Semester 1 next week, so keep your eyes out (and your Thursday evening free) for that.

🍻 🍕🍝In the meantime, our regular watering hole Bar Home is booked for tomorrow evening! Come along from 7:45pm to swap war stories from the break, flaunt any Summer League silverware, meet a bunch of new and friendly people, and have some affordable scran (with the student discount).

🍺 Bar Home are kindly providing a nice iced beer bucket on arrival so the first 7 people to show up will have first dibs on the contents of that.

💃🕺As always, there's a good chance we could head out somewhere more bouncing at the end of the evening. 😎

Details for tomorrow evening:

📍 Home Glasgow, 80 Albion Street, Glasgow, G1 1NY;

(5 mins walk from campus)

⌚: 7:45pm

FIRST ARRIVALS WILL GET A FREE BEER (If you don't want a beer I will personally have it and provide an alternative)

Any questions, pop them in the chat or drop me a message. I'll be walking to Bar Home from campus so if you need some directional guidance to the pub, meet me outside the Student Union at 7:40pm.

See you there!

🎉 GRADUATION PART 2👨‍🎓

Sadly, we need to say goodbye to our graduating players. Coming 🥇 in Mixed Indoor Nationals and 🥈 in Mens Indoors Nationals definitely cemented these guys in the history books for Dark Horses! 🐎🐎

Let’s hope they find something as fun and exciting as Dark Horses Ultimate after Uni!
