Lorraine McAuley - Safety & Development Officer
Primarily the Sports Development & Safety Adviser's role is to develop sport, club and volunteers within the Sports Union and ensuring as far as possible that the clubs run in a safe manner. This involves, amongst other things, safety training (e.g. first aid training) and organising coaching/officiating courses. Main aim however is also to develop and create new Sports Union's activities and continually looking to gain new members. Club committees should speak to SDO about any Sports Development issues relating to their sport, or anyone wishing to start up a new club should speak to Lorraine.

THE SPORTS EXECUTIVE
Daisy Radford – Vice President John Anderson
Course: Accounting
Clubs: Hockey
My role as Vice President is to contribute to the running of the Sports Union and sit on the strategic development committees. One of the main responsibilities of the VPJA is to organise the annual Sports Ball - one of the biggest Student Association events of the year!
Sitting on the executive committee last year gave me a great insight into the workings of the different clubs/sports that make up the Sports Union. I hope to continue the good work we did last year and I am excited about the fresh ideas coming through the new exec members.

Amy Nolan – Vice President JordanHill

Club: Rowing
I have just finished my degree in Psychology at Stathclyde and am doing a post grad in primary teaching. This year I'm on the sports exec as VP Jordanhill. I hope to encourage JH students to get involved in the Sports Union and its clubs.
I have been involved in the University Boat Club for the past 3 years, and have been on the committee for the past 2 years; as Social Convenor and last year as Senior Women's Captain. It's a great way to get involved in university life and meet new people! So whether you want to represent the University competitively or just want to join a club for the craic, I'd recommend everyone to get involved.
