3. Pointscore policy is up on the club website. Any queries, errors or omissions please email darwintriclub@bigpond.com. Addition audits regularly conducted.

4. Dave Scott is one of the best known triathletes in the sport. His long and impressive career includes six Ironman World Championships. He has now been inducted in USA Triathlon Hall of Fame.

5. I've been getting some requests to do another uniform order. If you would be interested or have any ideas on the types of items you would like in club colours or with logo, please email darwintriclub@bigpond.com with "Uniform" as the subject so that we can gauge demand.

6. For the information of newer members, our uniform orders are done on a pre pay system and we rarely order extra stock. An order goes ahead if we reach or get close to minimum number requirements (we may then elect to have an item as extra stock).

7. We currently have two men's medium and one women's small tri tops left in stock from the last order. They are available for $65. They look great with black tri pants.

Safe Training,
Cheers,
Robyn
