What will you bring to this role (e.g. experience, skills or qualities)?

Hey! I’m Jim, the Treasurer of Men’s Cricket and also one of your Sports Rep’s.

This is what I will bring to the role:

  • This year I have been a Sports Rep working with the Sports Officer to represent TeamUCL members and pioneer change.
  • As the Treasurer of UCL Cricket, I have gained a deep knowledge of Union systems and have been responsible for organisation and fundraising and sponsorship.
  • I have extensive experience in leadership positions, sitting on the Sports Representative Group, Activities Zone and chairing the Sports Night Working Group. I have also been a key committee member Cricket.
What do you hope to achieve in the role if you are elected?

Participation: Ensuring that sport is available for everyone, with support for clubs to create structured and accessible beginner programmes. 

Marketing: A lot of the amazing achievements of our clubs aren't celebrated. I would work with existing student media and the SU to improve coverage of what our clubs are doing and also generate exposure for small clubs. 

One TeamUCL: Bridge the disconnect between TeamUCL and RUMS to boost UCL’s overall sporting presence. Continuing the development of UCL Leagues and Project Active.

Efficiency: Simplifying union processes to make running clubs easier. 

Please summarise why students should vote for you.

Sport has defined my university experience, and I want to help enhance the experiences of everyone involved in TeamUCL. My passion, combined with my prior experience, makes me highly suited for this role. I am deeply committed to driving positive change, improving access, and increasing enjoyment. Every student deserves the same opportunity to thrive that I have been afforded. I will work to break down barriers and create more inclusive opportunities so that all students, regardless of background or ability, can engage in sport and feel part of a strong, supportive community.
