Hi, I’m running for Secretary this year!

I believe I will make a suitable candidate for the role of the secretary. Being on the team for a while has helped continue my love for the sport, especially the enjoyment and motivation from the team. Being part of the committee will allow me to help promote the team spirit and make new players next season feel welcome.

Regarding the role of the secretary, I believe I have effective time management and organisational skills, which I will utilise to help make me an efficient secretary. For example, helping in decision making and booking and going to team meetings. My ability to communicate with other people will help me create an effective team environment in the committee, which will encourage positive changes for the team.

As your secretary, I will ensure that all new team players have completed ‘head space’ before their first rugby game. I will be updating the SU with the team’s progress and decisions whilst working closely with the committee, such as the captain and president, to carry on developing as a team. I will help reduce conflict within the team with my positive aura and make a friendly atmosphere making sure all new players feel welcome.

I’m very excited for next season to carry on with an inspirational and motivated team. I would appreciate your vote as being part of the committee to allow further development of the team but making sure new and current players have an amazing experience whilst being part of the Women’s rugby!
