Cassandra is a third year who has been College Sports Rep for two years. She won Langwith sportswoman of the year as a fresher due to her commitment and dedication to college sport. She also captained the Badminton mixed team and has been the club’s President. She’s standing for YUSU because of her passion for sport, and her desire to represent every sport equally.
Her policies follow a simple formula. Maintaining performance by lobbying for an in-house physio in order to prevent injuries more; improving performance by working with the York Sport committee to obtain a sponsor in order to fund cheaper facilities and sustaining performance by lobbying for a training day for social secretaries and captains. The social secretaries would receive training in welfare and sponsorship, and the captains would have the same for motivational advice.
She would lobby the University for more funding, work closely with York Sport to make sport more accessible and increasing the availability of ‘Get into Sport’ days. She would also work to improve participation in college sport. In order to get the best from the guaranteed upcoming developments in university facilities, she will lobby the university for quick and efficient completion of the promised progress, including refurbishment of the tent, more storage and more new builds on Hes East.
