Well the first one came and went, and it was a success in my book.
I think we should start to think about the next one and others to come, so I thought up some suggested improvements (while it fresh in mih mind) and invite you guys to add or delete as you see fit, so that when the next sweat roles around we would enjoy ourselves even more. The foreigners could take notice too if they plan to follow suit.
1. Maybe we could make the day a permanent fixture on the WN calendar. Possible days could be like the first Sat/Sun after carnival or christmas (since plenty men does come back around those times), or any other day that we could maximise on the influx of the foreign based contingent. The foreign based folks could now plan better when they visit for Xmas or carnival. Ah hearing talk about a foreigners vs local warriors brewing
2. We could link up with a sponsor or two to have different colour jerseys...nothing fancy...just for the sweat. Maybe Soccer World could help out here. Men might still have to chip in with something if we don't get fully sponsored though.
3.
Name tags could be given out upon registration or on the day depending on convenience, that way if oconorg or Andre Samuel not around and somebody too shy to introduce themselves, people could always see yuh 'handle' on yuh clothes. We could get sticky tape for men who want to walk around bare back.
4. We could get a WN banner at the venue so people could feel important and thing...big up weself nah.
5. We need a doctor or nurse or ambulance services or at least a medicine kit at the sweat in case Andre Samuel get injured again
....or if men have to make twins on the field
allyuh know what ah talking about...call names and I would..
.
6. To add some more interest in the game/s, maybe we could up the stakes from just bragging rights. I not sure exactly how yet, but maybe collect a $5 or so from each player and the winning team get to buss the bank. Or maybe vouchers for discounts on warriors kits...something..anything.
7. More food on the day. Somebody suggested the pie man or doubles man too. One thing for sure it would have a BIGGER pot for the fish broth so men wouldn't have to wait on two pots to bubble.
8. Maybe a bar, or least a couple more coolers of beers and whatnot, because ah feel the next sweat would be bigger.
9. Maybe tighter security wherever the venue is, so the outsiders wouldn't steal our cameras and cell phones. Or maybe just put all our stuff where we could keep an eye on it for ourselves, or perhaps by the non-sweating warriors and lady warriors.
10. COME EARLY AND BRING YUH FAMILY !!! BRING YUH MAN / GYUL / HUSBAND / WIFE / OUTSIDE WOMAN...not if yuh wife coming / CHILDREN ETC....
11. Almost forget....get proper officials for the next sweat, so Jeferz and Small M wouldn't buss mih head...
Ah sure allyuh could come up with some more suggestions....or maybe discard some of mine. Judging on rental of the grounds alone, I already see that maybe the contribution have to increase slightly for the next sweat.
