Adam Ali

Chess: Treasurer

Having already been Treasurer in 23-24, I am the reliable and pro-active choice for this election.

Notably this year;

    • I have taken the lead and initiative to discuss with world leading prop/quant-trading firms plans to sponsor our activities. A remarkable move for our club, given this would be the first sponsors in our history. This is an ongoing process, but I firmly believe these plans will materialize in the coming year - making YOUR paid for events with Chess cheaper, or even free.
    • I am looking to take the lead on correspondence this year for an annual tournament against the University of Cambridge.
    • Above all, I improved our budget from 2023 to allocate more money for pizza nights.

In 2024-25 I plan to

    • Increase female participation in Chess (Queens are arguably the strongest piece after all!!)
    • Improve our social media front particularly with our presence on TikTok - as with many other societies across the coutnry.
    • With any sponsorship money, subsidise our annual BUCA (British Uni Chess Assoc.) trips.

Don't be a pawn - vote for Adam.
