I have recently become a sports writer for exciting sports app, 8:50 Sports Digest.The App gives readers a brief overview of matches from all over the world. Covering the tennis section tests time management producing articles daily just moments after the event.

Head of sport for Loughborough campus radio. I work with a committee who provide opportunities for volunteers whilst also creating professional sporting content to raise awareness of sport on campus. One of the main projects for this year has been the introduction of 'BUCSfizz' a radio show on a Wednesday afternoon which looks to give an overview of the days sporting action for listeners.

In my final year I was elected as Loughborough students’ tennis club chairman. I worked closely with the Athletic Union in order to run the club efficiently. The role enabled me to experience managing a team, delegating and carrying out roles as required. The position enhanced my communication and organisational skills which I soon found to be critical, especially when delivering presentations to prospective students.

My duty was to make sure any problems within my course across the three year groups were brought to the attention of the department leaders. The role enriched my organisation and communication skills.

The year prior to undertaking the role as chairman I was the club secretary. This role tested my time keeping skills and gave me a good insight into how the club was run. My main responsibilities included: taking minutes and uploading them efficiently, organising the club trophies for the end of year ball.

Whilst covering a number of the high profile sporting university events I managed to create several published articles. The position tested my ability to work to deadlines, often having to produce an article just hours after concluding a match myself, it also tested my creativity by ensuring all sports matches were recorded with enthusiasm and were accessible to non-sporting students.
