Myself and Jasmine Hooper would like to run for next years social secretaries. We are both hard working enthusiastic individuals with positive outgoing personalities making us perfect for the role as we can reach out to plenty of individuals across the club who we may not have reached out to before or may not know us well as we want to assure that if we are elected as your next social secs we will make it our priority to reach out to members of the club and make sure everyone feels comfortable talking to us to ensure that everyone across the club is having a good time. We want to ensure that the socials and events are planned well in advance so that everyone is well aware of what is happening when and where, this will ensure a smooth running to everything we put on and as a result less stress on other members of the club. By planning well in advance it also means that any changes that we may need to make can be made in plenty of time and keep the club running smoothly as possible at all times. We have noticed that as a club it is very inclusive at all events including hockey matches and social events, we want to carry this theme on and ensure that everyone in the team no matter how old or new feels they have their ideas listened to. To do this we want to encourage an open feel where anyone can discuss anything they feel they dislike or want to change, both Jas and I will be there to listen to any ideas anyone in the team wants to put out there. This is why both me and Jas pride ourselves on being good listeners and we have a strong desire to engage with opinions of members of the club. As a club we are very busy and so the chances to do things as a club outside of coming together to watch matches is very difficult however, introducing events that the club can do as a whole on certain days of the year to bring the club closer together such as colour runs or game days will mean that as individuals we will all be a lot more settled in, but as a club as a whole we will be a lot more integrated across teams helping everyone to settle in and have more friendly faces. So why vote for me and Jas to be next years social secretaries? We are both friendly outgoing people who love to get to know new people and have fun but we are also highly confident individuals who can both adapt to an array of social settings. We will both genuinely care about the social side of the club as we both fully believe this is what attracts many members to the club as a first thing but also satisfying current members of the club. We hope the club can see that we will both be dependable people who can be trusted to put on an array of events and socials and be a strong face of the social side of hockey and keep the brilliant job done this year going forward into next year. As putting out a strong team we hope that other people we work with outside of hockey can see us as people who can be trusted to discuss problems with the club to raise the standards higher and hopefully keep them at a high standard all year round. Thanks, Jas and Sadie:)
