Election post
Hi everyone! My name is Shilang, and I'm a second-year student. Since joining the club last year, I've been surrounded by a warm, supportive community that has helped me to continue my passion for taekwondo and build lasting friendships. As a result, I am motivated to contribute more and step up as President.
My experience as a committee member has prepared me to be an effective leader. This year, I had the opportunity to lead Run Club and some poomsae sessions, building my confidence in leadership and communication. As Volunteering Secretary, I have become familiar with some of the administrative tasks involved with running the club, including organising volunteer umpires and planning charity events. These experiences helped me develop skills such as using spreadsheets to track entries, writing risk assessments, and communicating with the Student Union by email.
Working together with fellow committee members on challenges such as hiring new coaches and planning freshers’ events has also strengthened my understanding of how to delegate roles and make collaborative decisions based on different people's views. As your President, I will work hard to ensure the whole committee stays on track to deliver events smoothly.
I feel privileged to be part of this club, and I wish to give back as President by fostering the uplifting spirit that makes it so special. My goal is to ensure this club remains a positive space for training and connecting with others for future members.
