Calling London women players! Ah, the holidays… family, friends, and entirely too much food and drink. We’re not sure about you, but it’s been a good two weeks of lethargy, a bit of gluttony, and some serious sloth. Good times, but January is the time to get back on the ‘sure, I’m kind of trying to be in shape’ bandwagon.
ABH is looking for experienced and spirited women players to join our merry band; we’ll be holding practices starting January 24th at our super central Hyde Park location. Love your forehand? Occasionally let fly the odd hammer? Indulge in the rare scoober? If you’re an intermediate or above player, with at least a year or two of experience, come on out! Or, if you’d rather check us out before, ABH needs a few fun women to help us out for Mixed Winter League on January 17th. It seems like there’s a strange combination of some of our women still shaking off hibernation mode, having to work or worse, making us jealous as they soak up sun in far-off lands. SNEAKY BONUS: Mara has promised to reward layout D’s with a homemade cupcake, specially created for her entries in the Iron Cupcake Challenge (which rock). If you have any questions, please email Mara Alperin (snowy_owl203 (at) yahoo.com) or Mike Hawkins (hawkinsmike (at) gmail.com). Or, check us out at www.abhultimate.org. Cheers, Mara and Mike ***************** For a bit more about the team: ABH is a fun, social team that’s been around for five years, playing among the top 16 of the Mixed Table. Our philosophy? We’re all about balance. Once a week, we practice hard while having a laugh with our friends. The rest of the time, there’ll be optional fitness workouts and practices (including midweek astroturf fun!), but we realize that we all have a number of commitments to juggle so these aren’t mandatory. Social stuff: We also figure that the fun folks we play with are pretty cool to hang out with as well – so do a number of social things throughout the year… from the normal pub meetups to the slight random country hikes, CD mix swaps, and a bunch more besides. When: ABH Mixed trainings will take place with a warmup/throwaround at 12:00, and practice to follow at 12:30pm on Sundays on the south side of Hyde Park, starting the 24th of January. If you still have legs, we’ll follow that with some high-level pick-up at 2:00, and some carbo-replenishment with a few beers at the pub.
