O-week …in the making!

Posted on March 4, 2016 by Tomo in Uncategorized

O-week 2016 has finished, but lets take a quick look behind the scenes…

Its easy to think that O-week is just a festive week where we stand and promote your own club. Well, not when you have to be in the blazing the sun with Kendo armour on!

The (new) members that join our club are our future, and our current members have the duty to welcome them and share our experience as best as we can. This isn’t some unique bushido spiritsĀ – its common sense really.

A big thank you to all our wonderful members who began O-week preparation early in February! Lead by our vice president Kai Kikuchi, also the club’s vice president, we had several info sessions for rosters, times, demo instructions, contacting each other, etc.

Great work everyone! Check this link to see what came of our practices at O-week.

Also… while I was filming everyone practicing this song was in my head the whole time…

“You better lose yourself in the music, the moment
You own it, you better never let it go go
You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow
This opportunity comes once in a lifetime yo” – EminemĀ
