William Groom
Hi I'm Will, and as I enter my 3rd year at ICBC, I would love to take on the role of Men’s Captain. Over the past six months, I have seen this squad truly turn a corner. Already, we are poised to go so much quicker over the rest of this season, and I think I would be well suited to lead us in continuing the momentum next year.
At school, I was fortunate enough to train under some world-class coaches who have shown me the processes that lead to performing at a very high level, and as captain I would be able to implement those processes for our squad, to help us find those one percents. I also think that as kit sec this year, I have shown that I can organise effectively, and balance uni with being a proactive member of the committee and the boat club.
I aim to keep developing the culture we have at the boat club, of lifting each other up and looking to make gains wherever possible. I will work with the coaches and with you all to drive our performance. Having raced in all three eights last season, I will also be a voice for anyone in any boat, to ensure that everyone gets the great experience that they deserve.
I will always be open to hearing everyone’s queries, and will try to make every improvement possible to the squad. Let’s keep pushing forwards, making boats go fast, and having fun.
