Hi everyone!

Due to the upcoming university exam period, our training location and times have temporarily changed.

During this period, the university gym floor will be used for exams; we will be moving our training to the upstairs multipurpose room (directly above the gym reception area).

We will be training in the upstairs room for the following dates and times:

Monday 10 June 7:30-9:30pm
Wednesday 12 June 7:30-9:30pm
Monday 17 June 7:30-9:30pm
Wednesday 19 June 7:30-9:30pm
Please take special note that the training time on Wednesdays will be 7:30pm - 9:30pm.

To access the multipurpose room; take the staircase or elevator in the hallway directly opposite the gym service desk, the room is through a glass sliding door at the top of the stairs. If you get lost, look out for a fellow club member, or the gym staff will be able to guide you. This is a carpetted room, so please be mindful of your feet.

During this period please be careful to keep any noise to a minimum as exams are being run around the university campus.

Training will return to our normal location and times starting Monday 24th June.
