secretary speech

Good evening,

For those of you who don't know me yet, my name is Conor and I have been a student at Hull for a year as a fresher and I am running for club secretary.

I get along well with others as a result of being friendly and open.

Being a secretary isn't all bright and breezy, being a secretary also involves the role of leadership. As secretary, I will help all other members of the commitee to implement and share ideas to help swimming grow and develop. If elected, I will try my
