Description
In 1961, communication about a proposed water-ski intervarsity competition was circulated to universities. UNSW responded that there was not currently a club, but that there were a number of students who participated in the sport. It was suggested that a club may be formed in the event of the competition being created. Again in 1962, a similar letter was recieved but this time the competition was scheduled for 1963. The University doesn't appear to have competed. The Water Ski Club was conceived at a meeting on 13 April, 1967, with 22 interested parties present. The Club become affiliated with the Sports Association at a meeting of the General Committee on 5 July 1967. The first Annual General Meeting for the Club was held on 19 September, 1967, with 30 attendees. The Club later changed its name to the Waterski and Wakeboard Club.
