Vice President [email protected] PADDY EVERINGHAM Hi everyone, my name is Paddy and I'm the VP here at GUSA. I work closely with Gemma to help support Isi with her presidential duties and the three of us make up the executive team. One of my main roles is to organise the GUSA ball, an evening to celebrate the years' success and unite over 800 people from the 50 different sports clubs. It was the sports fayre in freshers week that got me hooked. The energy from all the helpers around the hall, from all different backgrounds, welcomed and drew me in with open arms. Within an hour I'd signed up to countless taster sessions... fast forward a week and I was a memberof 4 different clubs! From then on I've never looked back. Whether a sports newbe or elite athlete, GUSA has something for you, so please throw yourselves in and come and join the big GUSA family. All of us here are around to make sport fun and accessible to all so if you see us around please come and say hi! There'll never be an easier to time to try new things and make great friends than at Uni so even if you think you don't have a sporty bone in your body, trust us, get involved and you might just surprise yourself!
