21st of January!! But, we need to get peoples names in ASAP in order to confirm a place in the accommodation, which is tight!
I would appreciate it if everyone who intends to come could please state their names and student numbers below ASAP as we want to ensure that we have somewhere to stay for the weekend
The Fancy Dress theme of this years Varsities has been revealed, drum roll please................

size T-Shits ye would like
IMPORTANT: There will be a
limit of 30 people allowed to come to varsities this year based on accommodation availability. The priority will be given to people who are competing and then if there is still space for those who arent competing, places will be allocated on a first come first served basis.
Also
sign up for varsities closes on the 18th of January so that we can get the money in on time.
**Accommodation Update**This year for varsities, the accommodation is very scarce and very expensive. Our only option was to take a conference room with 25 mattresses on the floor, 6 people on ground mats and then 6 people in the hostel. There are all the facilities we need there. Toilets, showers, heating etc... and realistically all we will be doing is sleeping there, so as long as there is a mattress... :/
Unfortunately, there was no other option. We had to take it. People were being turned away by the accommodation. We know it is not ideal, but there really is no other option.
Just said we would let ye know what the story is in advance.
