Throughout the past year I have really enjoyed being a part of the UCL fitness squad. I would love to be able to further my role and give something back to the team. As a friendly and supportive face, it would be great to help everyone become the best swimmers that we can be.
Whilst having swum competitively for eight years, I also have a wealth of coaching experience. I was a netball captain and Deputy Head Girl during Sixth Form, and I also mentored students from all over the world during covid.
It would be great to make some improvements such as trying to find different pools where more of the team can train, alongside creating workout sets to complete outside of the pool to maintain overall fitness.
I would hope to be an approachable, motivated and dedicated individual, always willing to listen to the squad's suggestions and welcome new members. I would love to see the squad's skills progress further, but most importantly for everyone to enjoy swimming! :)

Being Fitness Captain for the past year has honestly been the one of the highlights of my time at UCL. I’ve really enjoyed watching the swim team grow in both confidence and ability.
With over 9 years of competitive swimming experience, training under Olympic coaches and competing at an international level I have been fortunate to absorb a lot of high-quality technique and fitness training methods which I hope to continue to offer to you over the next year.
Seeing how the swim team has been run this year I have a few suggestions as to how I would improve it for next year:
· Search for other pool facilities with more suitable availability
· Implement dedicated land training sessions
· Provide an online bank of sets for individual swimming
With these additions I think it important to note that my main priority remains to help swimmers of all abilities feel welcomed, grow in both confidence and ability and to ultimately have fun.
I hope you have enjoyed the past year’s training and it would be an honour to serve the team for another year.
