Hey all, it seems to be that time of year again...
Sheffield Steal Open training is starting next Saturday, 24th January, at 9.30am in Hillsborough Park.
Last year was a fantastic season for Steal, culminating in a 10th place finish at Nationals/EUCR-W, and the club is looking to push on and cement a place in the A Tour again this year. Trainings are open to all comers, whatever your experience or talent, and will be running almost every other week. All the training dates and directions to the park can be found at http://www.sheffieldultimate.com/training.
Any enquiries for the coming season can be directed to me, and either I or Pete will get back to you.
Regards
Si
Sheffield Steal Club Captain

Firstly - thanks for reading. Please read everything in this message. It shows you a way that you can help us get the GB squads to Vancouver without any cost to yourself.
When you register, simply choose your cause from the list (under "G"
you'll see various GB squads)
There are three ways that you can raise money for the GB squads: 1 - online shopping 2 - free trials 3 - easysearch
1 - Online Shopping
Whenever you are doing your online shopping, simply go to http://www.easyfundraising.org.uk first, log in, then search for a retailer from there. They have a deal with all the big names (Amazon, Play.com <http://play.com/>, HMV, Tesco, WHSmith, Comet, etc etc) and
whenever you buy something from any of those websites while using http://www.easyfundraising.org.uk as a portal, those same 'big name' companies donate money to our cause! It's really that simple.
It costs you exactly the same amount of money as it would to shop there normally. Each company donates a different amount; around 2-4% of the total purchase will be given to the GB teams.
2 - Free Trials
In addition, there is a link called 'Free Funds' [http://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/raise_funds_for_free/] that allows you to raise money for us *without spending any money yourself*. For
instance, take out a free 2 week trial at LoveFilm and they donate £8! (you can cancel for free immediately without spending a penny, or simply enjoy the free dvd rental)
Now here's the kicker. Don't keep this to yourself. Email it to regional lists, club lists, friends, relatives, colleagues and more. The more people using this stuff, the more money we can raise and it doesn't cost you a thing.
