Welcome Iron Mic
WRPSS is always pleased to see our sport's tentacles spread.
Just a few comments:
:we will have nutured super-human RPS players whose skills would be unmatched anywhere in the world.
A noble endeavour, however, I must point out that the majority of Masters were adept at RPS prior to 10 years old and some prior to that.
The squad currently possesses $0. Our goal is to collect enough in contributions to buy uniforms within the next couple of months.
Perhaps you should apply for a Development Grant from WRPSS. I believe Form AL 23723 is available between Wednesday and Friday from WRPSS Headquarters and if submitted within four weeks of collection, with supporting documentation including bank records, organisational structure, three referees and a mission statement you're request will , most likely, be considered.
It's never actually worked for RPSOZ (we tend to prefer government assistance (it's easier to get))
however I feel sure the form must be there for some purpose.
(While I think of it, don't use "To raise money for the RPSOZ Christmas Party as a mission statement.)It would appear that only works on our Gov. applications.
: You have made an excellent section for best name - Quiet Storm is also up on my list. I will have to say though that my absolute favorite is M!ke "Former President Calvin Coolidge" Lovering. The shear genius and originality of FPCC has intrigued me since it was first utilized by M!ke.
In my heyday, I used to call myself "Custard Fantastico Chop Chop Bring Out Your Dead Rock Me Chuk". Autographs were a nightmare, and cheques.
M!ke would do well to consider the double edged sword that fame may bring.
: We are currently working on a calendar of future RPS, including normal and Grand Slam tournaments. I will notify you of those as soon as we notify ourselves.
Please post on our board. It is not unheard of for RPS legends to turn up unannounced. It great for the youngsters and helps sell a lot of beer.
: Thank you once again for your support and confidence of the OPHSVRPS team. We wish all of you the best of luck in future RPS endeavors.
And we you.
