Ultimate Frisbee Club: Women's Captain

Hello! My name is Chen Pai, you might know me as Joe. I am running to be one of your Women’s Captains next year.
 

I love playing frisbee and I have enjoyed developing my playing style both within UCL and externally in nationally ranked clubs. As one of your captains, I want to pass on my knowledge to developing players to help them fall in love with the sport like I did.

My focus as captain is to develop individual skills in our players to ensure they are well rounded players who can play a broad range of strategies. I also plan to provide more in-tournament playing opportunities for developing players, especially indoors where we don’t currently have dedicated beginners teams.

Thank you for reading my manifesto, please consider voting for me to be one of your new Women’s Captains!

Having played team sports for most my life, I have come to realise that camaraderie and trust in a team are the foundations for success. The best teams I have been on, are the ones where everyone genuinely trusts each other on and off the field and I am running for women’s captain to do my part and try to achieve this goal.

I wish to create a positive and conducive environment for everyone to learn and to grow, and to create an outlet for everyone to forge connections and friendships that will last. I hope to foster a training environment where everyone feels empowered, valued, and motivated to improve. To achieve this, I aim to create a culture of open communication, where everyone is able to voice out their opinions and feel heard. I also aim to lead by example, through giving my all during trainings and being there for everyone on the team.

In this respect, my past experiences as my previous school’s netball team captain have taught me the skills necessary to achieve this. Additionally, I believe that my strong organisational skills will be useful in helping to plan and manage training schedules.

“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” In building a cohesive and bonded team, I believe that we will go far, and take UCL Ultimate to greater heights. It is my passion for this sport, and my commitment to this team that I hope will compel you to vote for me to be the next women’s captain.
