Introduce yourself

Hi Fred
Great news that you will start up uwh in Sweden - I can come and play each time I travvel home to catch up with my family! I have a brother who lives in Stockholm and he tried uwh once here in Australia. Let me know when you are training and I'll tell him to bring some mates and come along!

and when Lena is visiting her family I will invite myself and maybe a few friends to visit Lena and we will play too!

Hello all...

since every1's doing it...and been a spectator in this forum for a while..so I am introducing myself.. Luella here..friends call me LUI..Started playing uwh in the Philippines in 2002 and instantly got hooked to the sport. Chose Monash Univ in Melbourne to do a degree because there was a group playing UWH there. But realized that I couldn't play much in the 2 years while doing studies coz most of my classes was during playing times(big disappointment!) Now currently residing here in Melbourne and been playing here for a year now and loving it! I play mostly at Monash University and Xavier College..

Hey Lena,
as in every uwh club, everybody is welcome. We will start training in September, as most pools are currently closed. However, in the summer I am training during the uwrugby practice of Polisen (Erikstadsbadet) but in September we will be a part of Caviar Bromma and training in Akeshov swimming pool.
I'll keep you informed on when we will start. Would be really cool if your brother could join us, and of course that you would come by for a visit.
Tania, the same goes for you of course!
Take care

Hi guys,

I'm Bram, 23 years old and trainer/player at the uwh-team: ORCA Bilzen, Belgium.
We have been playing for about four years now and we have a warm team with FUN as our priority. We are very close with the teams of Genk and Maastricht. We always look forward to learn new stuff and meet new people. But wherever we go, we always take our humor with us. So be prepared ;-)

Fred started our team four years ago, and still is our every-day inspiration! Its great to see you're putting up a Swedish UWH-team.
Perhaps next vacation we can join you in Sweden with the Bilzen-team.

Greezt,

Bram

Hi Bram,

Glad to see you joined the community. I'll be in Belgium next week and will come to the Bilzen training on Wednesday.

Talk to you soon
Fred

Hi, my name is, my name is, my name is ... Slim Shady. Just kidding. Will the real Slim Shady please stand up?

Ok, if someone for some obscure reason needs to know my real name I will consider sending it over pm, but I don't see much point in exposing my identity to thousands of John Does. If I wanted fame and fortune I probably wouldn't be playing uwh, would I... or would I?

I live and play in Ljubljana, Slovenia for my club pH Ljubljana which is the larger one of two slovenian clubs. I have been playing uwh for two and a half years now and i find it unbeliveably amazing how addictive the game is. It probably has something to do with lack of oxygen and its effects on brain cells
I mostly play at tournaments in or near Slovenia. This year I was lucky and made it to the national team and played in Bari as some guys that really should go and are much much better than me couldn't make it. Still, we came out third with a lot of help and ecouragement from our coach BentFishBoy...

Well... that's about it for me.

Oh, and a hello to Steve, we played together two years ago in Ceske Budejovice. Hope to see you in near future.
