Social Theme This year at SSTO we will be celebrating all things love with our WEDDING THEMED WEEKEND. Trampolining is without a doubt one of the most accepting student sports for people of all sexualities, genders and races - come and celebrate that with us!
Thursday It’s the day before your wedding and you’ve woken up with a banging head ache, countless missed calls and no memory of your stag/hen do. Your bride/groom to be has gone missing! It’s time to retrace your steps and find them. You know where you started and where you finished but not what happened in between. Navigate the cheapest and best pubs of Edinburgh as you follow clues and complete challenges in order to find your other half in this year’s BEERIENTEERING: STAG/HEN DO THEMED SOCIAL. Can you solve the mystery of your loved one’s whereabouts? Once we have a winner and our love birds are reunited, join us in Subway Cowgate for £1 drinks to dance the night away. Socials
Friday Are those wedding bells I hear? Get your finest clothes out! The day has finally arrived for us to announce our MR/MRS & MR/MRS TRAMPOLINE 2018/19. Join us at Potterrow to enjoy our 3 private bars and HUGE venue to find out who has won the crown. After their first dance its time to celebrate Scottish style at our annual ceilidh! Never done one before? No problem, we’ll teach you. As the drinks start to flow and the reception is in full swing prepare for a change in music as our famous resident BIG CHEESE DJs take the stage till 3AM – that’s right, no venue change! We’ve brought the club TO YOU. There will be shots from £1.50 and drinks from £2.50.
Saturday The stress of the wedding is over so its time to enjoy yourself in your HONEYMOON PARADISE. Whether you’re dressing up as your partner’s biggest honeymoon fantasy or just slapping on your shades, shirts and shorts, get ready to hit the beach for this years HONEYMOON THEMED SOCIAL. Join us at The Liquid Rooms Edinburgh where we have a private balcony, a bar and maybe even some inflatable toys for you as you look back on the good times and rewind to the 70s/80s/90s/00s when you and your lover first met! Socials
Sunday Isn’t it funny how four days can feel like a life time? Well if the weekend hasn’t aged you enough yet then get ready to look even older. This social’s theme is OLD vs YOUNG. Life has been kind to you and you’ve made it this far, but are you the grandparent or the grandchild? The ghetto nan or baby crying in a pram? Join us at THE HIVE NIGHTCLUB for one final hurrah before you head home for some TLC with drinks from £1 and all you classic club hits.
The Scottish Student Trampoline Committee want to remind those attending SSTO that this is a sporting event and, although we encourage participation in the social aspect of the sport, drinking should be enjoyed responsibly and not in a way that could jeopardize your enjoyment of the weekend as a whole Entries
