BENCHBALL 2025-26 COMMITTEE ELECTION
-
Benchball Society
Benchball are electing their committee for the 25-26 academic year! We have had such a successful year in terms of new member recruitment and becoming triple reigning champions of Benchball Varsity in March - let’s hope we can continue the winning streak next year.
We are looking for people who are enthusiastic and passionate about Benchball. They must be welcoming and willing to get stuck in and ensure success of the society. It looks great on your CV because of the leadership responsibilities and is brilliant way to meet amazing new people!
The election process will involve a short manifesto and a longer in-person AGM with opportunities for speeches and questions. All roles will receive training and a handover from the current person in their role, and the Guild has additional training available in September.
You may run for a maximum of TWO roles, if you are elected for both you must choose one of these two roles and the individual with the next most votes will be elected for the other role. If you are running for SOCIAL SECRETARY and are running in a pair (this is advised), please put both of your names on the application.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Jas (@jas.clark_17) or the person/people in the role/s that you are applying for.
