Oui le RUMSBC!

It’s time to properly give back to the club that I’ve been a part of for almost 4 years, by giving next year’s Freshers the Novice Experience that was crucial to me sticking with RUMSBC up until now. My commitment, leadership experience, and love for the boys (and the club as a whole) are qualities that I hope you can see would make me a Novice Captain that can deliver this important experience. 

My 3 priorities are:

CREATION OF AN ENJOYABLE ALL-ROUND NOVICE BOATHOUSE EXPERIENCE

  • Bringing back pre-outing squad meet-ups to travel to the boathouse together as a crew. 
  • Music at the boathouse and a rowdy, feel-good atmosphere will be staple. 
  • Coordinated group warm-ups and cool downs after outings.  

CONTINUATION OF A GREAT SQUAD CULTURE

  • At least two Novice & Senior Men socials once a term, with at least one of them not focused on drinking (e.g. paintball), in order to promote greater inclusivity.
  • Cultivating a spectator culture - even if you’re not racing, you can still come down to support! 

FACILITATION OF THE NOVICE TO SENIOR TRANSITION

  • Planning an all-new Christmas Dinner event with the Social Secs, featuring integrated Novice-Senior ‘crews’ to facilitate more intra-club bonding. 
  • Creation of a groupchat with all of the men in RUMSBC, Novice and Senior, for the *expletive* chat!
