Attendance Challenge!

You may (if you are on the team) or may not (if you are anyone else in the world) have been aware that for the month of November, the University of Waterloo Nordic Ski Team has been running an attendance challenge. This means that the team is divided into two sections who then compete to generate the most attendance points at practise for the month. The losing team makes the winning team a fantastic, healthy and above all health-code approved dinner.

While in the past the natural division has been men vs. women, the pure lack of women on the ski team coupled with the sheer determination of the men has resulted in the creation of two new teams.

The Babies – Team members in either their first or second year at UW. Probably does not reflect mental capacity, ability to grow facial hair or napping frequency.

The Elderly – Team members in third year or higher. A reflection of the wealth and experience gathered by being a little bit older and a whole lot wiser.

Today (November 15) represents the mid-point of the competition, so we thought we would update you as to the score. Let you know who is in line for free eats, and who is looking at a pile of dirty dishes.

Team Total
The Elderly 44
The Babies 39
