It has been the by the request of several group members that we have a practice devoted to improving weapon technique and control. I have procured a time and place. We will have the the training night in the Oleson Center, from 5:00 - 7:00 p.m. We will be in the tiled floor room, room 112.
Please bring a clean pair of shoes for practice, same as in the gym. We will not have as much as in the gym, but we will still have a place for practice until it is nice outside.
Sorry for the late notice on this post, it just occurred to me to put this on the forums.

For anyone unsure of where the Oleson Center is, it is on the backside of the large parking lot (Maple Lot) by the P.E. building. The Oleson Center is hidden back in the woods to the right and back side of the parking lot.

In case you haven't checked this out (and judging by the attendance, you haven't) this practice is a great way to learn techniques that you get killed by every Sunday. You get to have different fighting styles and viewpoints of them broken down and work through drills to make them easier to learn. If you're someone who needs some work on your fight game, you should be there. If you think you're good enough on the field already then you obviously have knowledge that the rest of us would love to gain. Either way, we have a great opportunity here that hopefully we'll have more people getting in on.

I should have my axes completed by Sunday, but when I get enough built, we can start training with axes. This all depends on if people are interested in that.

Awesome. Training with axes? Possibly. Training against axes? Absolutely. Need to learn a better way to beat you axe people up.

We will no longer have the room in the Oleson Center that we were originally training in. I have reserved an outside spot, as that is all we can get that provides enough room. My major concern for practicing outside was that of having enough light. We should have plenty of light now that Daylight Savings time is kicking in. We can decide on an official outside area to fight this next practice.

We will be cancelling the weapon training on the 15th, due the possible rain.

We may not be having weapon training tonight, since the weather is all rainy and the ground will be super-wet. In-fact, we should probably just cancel it to be safe.
