5. Due to various other commitments such as schoolwork, i am only able to attend one of the training dates is that ok ?
Yes ! Absolutely =) Only thing is that your progress might be slower than other members thats all.
6. How is CCA points allocated if i join Judo ?
The current scheme is such that members of any clubs and socities do not get any CCA points. Only EXCO members would be allocated CCA points.
However, if you come for regular trainings and represent NUS in the annual Inter Tertiary Judo Competition, the captain would be able to go secure lodging in school at ridge view residences(RVR) as 100 places at RVR has been pre-allocated to teamNUS atheletes, so that they would be able to concentrate on training with their respective sports and not be bothered about how to get CCA points. For more information on this, please speak to the captain.
