Why I'm running
Having been on Club Sport Committee this year I have learnt a great deal about how clubs are run, and what is needed to be a successful sports officer. Sport is at the heart of my university enjoyment and I want everyone to experience this, regardless of sporting experience.
Community
- Work with RAG to re-instate the RAG leader board, and increase communication between RAG and club presidents to help fundraising events
- Boost club volunteering hours by pre-planning volunteering sessions at the beginning of the year
- Get more clubs involved in United Hospitals events to increase the presence of UH in the BL community
- Work with welfare to promote positive masculinity through the Good Lad Initiative, and continue to celebrate women in sport through the This Girl Can campaign
Outreach
- Open up drop-in sessions with the BL Sports Officer
- Introduce club of the month and player of the month on social media to coincide with final whistle
Sporting Excellence
- Keep the BLSA website and social media up to date on all the successes our sports clubs have
- Create a United Hospitals page on the BLSA website to show recognition for our clubs
- Increase our talent pool by promoting BL to prospective students as the medical school destination for sports
- Set up the BLSA Sport Analysis Programme to give all the clubs the opportunity to have video analysis of their matches
Sport For All
- Work with clubs to ensure usage of the BLSA fitness room is fairly distributed
- Ensure Merger Cup date fits with BL agendas and try to set up more friendly fixtures for clubs that don’t compete
