Sailing: Sponsorship and Alumni Officer

I am a 3rd Year Mechanical Engineer with two years of experience at ICSC. I’ve seen our club’s successes and challenges firsthand, and I am eager to use that insight to help next year’s committee excel.

Strengthening the Castaways Connection: Teo has brilliantly revamped Castaways, and I want to further bridge the gap between our generations. I will:

  • Communications: Ensure members are informed about open Castaways events and regularly contribute to the alumni newsletter.
  • Joint Training: Reopen communications between Imperial, UCL, and alumni to open the door for more training or make up for missing numbers.
  • Operational Support: Help the organise castaways Christmas Dinner and ensure boats are in good condition for the castaways events.

Realistic Sponsorship & Growth I have discussed with Henry (current holder of this position) to identify achievable goals. I will focus on:

  • Securing branded bibs for BUCS events and exploring equipment partnerships with brands like Harken or Allen for if we choose to host finals again.
  • Continue to work with the connections Henry has established.

A Supportive Committee Member As one of the older members, I intend to be a helping hand for the execs. My goal is to form new connections with castaways to help secure the future of ICSC.
