Dear Snowsports, as someone who’s attended more socials than I can count (even if I don’t remember all of them) I'd love to be your Social Sec! 

Just like I did this year, I want next year’s freshers to embrace the fun in wandering around London dressed like complete freaks, chunder-dragons and shoeys or even waking up with half an eyebrow missing. I’ve also learned many life lessons through Snowsports, in particular that it’s far wiser to send it down the MK slope than staircases; and while I still haven’t learned to 360 at least my worm's lateral separation has seen significant improvement.  

But something I truly value about Snowsports is how it encourages us to step out of our comfort zones, whether that’s our skiing, drinking or socialising abilities. I’ve loved seeing people initially join with a social membership and end up tackling their first ski runs - something that happens because strong socials can bring people in.

I also understand that great socials don’t just happen, they take organisation, communication and collaboration. I’d put real effort into ensuring plans are shared well in advance and I’d work closely with the Social Media Sec to showcase many (but definitely not all) our antics. From racers to complete beginners, (or worse, snowboarders...) Wednesdays bring us together and I’ve loved playing a part in uniting freshers through Ramsay pres. That’s why I want to help create more of those moments with you and encourage even more shenanigans next year. 

MT xx
