As a member of the society since I joined UCL, the club has played an integral part of my university experience. I’ve grown up playing cricket, I can’t really remember life without being a part of a cricket club, but more important than that, a community. Cricket clubs are communities and at UCL it isn’t any different. As President, I will continue the already well-run winter nets training programme at Lords. I will work with the rest of the committee, especially the Social Secretary, to put on more events to welcome more people into the club. As a sports society, we are in a unique position where we don’t play any matches until the end of the academic year. With this the connections and bonds between members are even much more important to make. This will be one my main things I want to improve, to make members feel more included and to have greater opportunity to meet new people.
