Meet The Committee
Archery Club Faces 2011/ 2012
Executive Committee
Meet the scary people who run your archery club, AKA the executive:
![]() |
Job: Captain
Name: Toby This is the third committee that Toby will have served on, with his previous positions being Secretary and Social Sec, so there is an outside chance that he’ll know what he’s doing by the time he’s graduated. As Captain it is Toby’s job to oversee the running of the club and to try to keep the chaotic shambles (a.k.a. the committee) in order, deal with the AU, and do all the jobs no-one else wants to do. Toby is one of two compound archers serving on this committee, although he does shoot a Mongolian Bow on field shoots (and is beaten by his girlfriend) |

Job: Coach/Vice Captain
Name: Richard As coach it is Richard’s job to whip the freshers into shape (using what ever he can get his hands on). As vice captain Richard will take over the club if Toby for some reason becomes indisposed (for example if Toby drinks more than two pints, or sees an itBox near by). Richard was the first year representative last year, in which job he drank and dated people from Mossad, which actually constituted more work than in most previous years |

Job: Treasurer
Name: Alex As Treasurer it’ll be Alex’s job to make sure the club stays in the black and doesn’t slip into the red. Luckily, as the majority of the club fees are being paid straight to the Sports hall rather than to Alex, this job will be pretty easy for him. This also ensures the club’s income, as he shares Toby’s addiction to pub games. Alex shoots barebow, and his favorite words are “itBox” when in the pub, and “yeah man” when playing Halo

Job: Secretary
Name: Leah As secretary Leah will be burdened with great responsibility (a.k.a. trying to decipher the unintelligible ramblings that are committee meetings so that some vaguely coherent minutes can be written up; getting the GNAS membership in on time (possibily through the use of Time Travel); Dealing with Glamorgan and the Welsh Archery Associations). Leah won most improved archer last year, and also won the unofficial, yet just as prestigious “Representing the Most Minorities on the Committee” Award by being both a militant Welshie, and dating a Northerner. |

Job: Social Sec
Name: Natasha After Natasha usurped the position of social sec from James last year, it seemed sensible to vote her into the position with the “powers” and “responsibility” that goes with it. Natasha shoots compound, and took the Novice Gold at BUCS outdoors for Female Compound. Due to her outstanding performance at the competition, she gained enough experience to evolve from Atrard to Spakotash |

Job: Equipment Officer
Name: Colette As the third ever elected equipment officer, it is hoped the Colette will buck the trend and actually fix the bows, arrows and strings that invariable get broken by freshers. Colette also does woman’s football, and can often be seen on Saturday morning’s very hungover/ still drunk Colette came second at indoor BUCS this year in the experienced female category after hardly any practise |
Non-Executive Committee
No less important (arguably more so), but with no power at all, these are the people who actually make things happen in the club, or generally are there to talk to / annoy.
![]() |
Job: First Year Rep
Name: TBA
It is the job of the first year rep to look after the freshers and take any complaints/ concerns etc they have to the the exec members of the committee.
Elections for this position are normally at the end of October, and are open to any new members of the club.

Job: Webmaster and Mailing List Admin
Name: Rhodri Being the resident nerd, Rhodri became the webmaster for the club during 2009, and has been slowly adding content to the website ever since. Rhodri also deals with the mailing list admin stuff that allows information to be sent out to the emails you provided at freshers fair. Whilst it is becoming increasingly apparent to him that a Zombie Apocalypse is less and less likely to happen (as well as the banning of tea), he still has a detailed and comprehensive Zombie survival plan. Rhodri is also one of the most experienced archers in the club, having represented Wales on three separate occasions (Twice as a Junior, and Once as a Senior), and has been on the Welsh Development Squad for the last three consecutive years. He also currently holds multiple County Records with Glamorgan Archery Association. |

Job: Archie’s Mummy and Marrion’s Mother in Law
Name: Leah As Archie’s Mummy and Marrion’s Mother-in-Law, it will be Leah’s (nigh on impossible) job to stop them being stolen for long periods of time by Bath (or any other uni). This is partly because of the kleptomaniac nature of all universities in regards to mascots, and also down to the fact the two mascots are currently only slightly taller than Leah. This actually hasn’t got off to a flying start this year, as both Archie and Marion are currently in Rhodri’s front room. |

Job: Barmaid
Name: TBA This year, we currently do not have a Barmaid. If you wish to apply for this position, simply offer to get the drinks for people who want a drink, but are too comfy being sat down (they have to give you the money for the drink first) |
![]() |
Job: Mascot
Name: Archibald Houdini (Archie) Archie is the long suffering mascot of the club, who has been repeatedly stolen by the likes of Bath Uni, and has made trips to such foreign lands as Rome, Pompeii, and York. Archie has been with the club for longer than anyone who is currently in the club can accurately determine, and has, over the years, developed his snappy dress style, which he only managed to improve on in September 2009 when he grew his Mexican-style mustache |
