Hi all,

FYI, undersigned is taking over as the new Sports Minister of Histoni, so you'll be getting the sports info from me instead of Olli from now on. You can also mail me to discuss any sports-related questions (doesn't have to be university sports related).

Histoni indoor shifts start 5th of Jan. For 2009 the shifts are the same as for 2008:

Floorball (sähly) MONDAYS at 1730-1840, and Futsal (sisäfutis) THURSDAYS at 1740-1840

Location is Oulun Normaalikoulu school, yläaste/lukio building, at the end of Yliopistokatu. Entry from right-hand end of the building. The courts reserved for Histoni are courts 2 and 3.

To take part, you need indoor sports shoes (important: has to be non-marking soles!) The shifts are under the University Sports Pass Program, so you need the Sports Pass sticker in your student card to take part (sold at Student Services/Opintotoimisto). However, the Sports Pass is not required during the first couple of weeks. Histoni has basic equipment like floorball sticks etc.

Please keep in mind these times are reserved for Biochem students' use. However, there's usually room for a couple of extra participants, so you can bring a friend along. Sports Pass is required from every user.

Also, be sure to check the site www.oulunkorkeakoululiikunta.fi for more information about the University sports stuff. The site holds information about the Sports Pass program and what shifts/classes you can take part in by getting the Sports Pass. These include some beginner classes in different sports, free gym shifts, private gym discounts, free guided exercise classes like aerobics, etc.

More sports info during the Spring.

Take care and have fun!
