Candidates for President Candidates for Vice-President Candidates for Treasurer


Candidate #1: Steve Tam
Throughout my first year as a member of CUBC, I've met countless friends through games and just chatting. As I talk with more people, I noticed that there are many demands that either go ignored or simply set aside. Furthermore, being hyped up for a tournament that didn't happen led me to the feeling that the club isn't formally structured and the hierarchy is somewhat lost. For example, executives seem to not be getting along with each other and everyone seems to be trying to do their own thing and not unite as a group. By being president, I would like to promote more communication within the executive team and members. I strongly believe that having a strong social contribution within our group would bring in more members and establish better long lasting relations. This would mean listening to feedback from members and putting them to use. Along the lines of communication, the website will be updated regularly to ensure that all news is up to date. To create more social gatherings for CUBC, I would like to organize more intra club tournaments where only our club members can play or even trying to extend our normal playing hours by one more. As Jim Rohn once said, "affirmation without discipline is the beginning of delusion" thus, I will discipline myself and my fellow executives in achieving our goals into making a better club without false hope.

Vote for Steve, Ryan, and Angie, and we guarantee a better leading club then what it is now.
Candidate #2: Melissa Li
Hey fellow CUBC members! You may remember me from last semester as your VP of Operations! I wish I could've been here for this semester but I'm currently on exchange in Australia and will be back this summer. If you vote for me for President, I promise you that I'll do my best to give you the best badminton experience ever! I will try and recruit more members to the club, keep everyone updated on current CUBC news, upcoming tournaments and more! I'll even plan some bar nights so we can party CUBC style! I'll always be available to answer questions and concerns via e-mail, facebook, MSN and in person so don't be shy and let me know what I can do to make the club better for you! I will ensure that the gym is set up at exactly 3pm on Sundays so you can get as much playing time as possible. I will also look into getting more gym time and will attempt to organize drop-in times during the week! See you all in September!

Yours truly,

Melissa Li
Candidate #3: Saad Khan
As a President I understand the responsibility towards the club. Having 2 years of prior experience with the club I would like to preserve the excellence of this club, upgrade the organization level by properly allocating the various responsibilities to the executive team and dedicate myself in providing quality games for all the members. Having a prior Experience with WEB development from my coop I would be able to improve the website by adding web based registrations, automatic updates for the preplanned events instead of changing it on a regular basis. Also having good communication and contact with athletics authorities give me good discount for the gym rentals which is why the registration fee is relatively to any other club in Ottawa. For the purchase of the equipments I do use my personal discount to buy the necessities for the club which improves our budget and from this year onwards I would like to extend this offer to the club members if they would like to utilize it for buying equipments like birds or racquets a cheaper price. Would represent the cub well like this year in the FACCS meeting to get the most we can for the funding and this would help in tournaments and new benefits to the club like more GYM hours.
