AGM Votes in New Committees
Find out the results from our 2024 AGM where 12 individuals were elected onto Scottish Student Sport committees.
The Scottish Student Sport network came together for our Annual General Meeting, which took place virtually on Wednesday 7th August.
Alongside business and financial updates from the organisation, voting took place for vacant positions on our three committees: Executive, Competitions and Development.
On our Executive Committee, Chris Sellar (Heriot-Watt) and Euan Smith (Glasgow) were both elected for two year staff member terms. Ian Gaunt (St. Andrews) was voted in for one year as a staff member.
Taking up the one year student positions are Ryan Cairns (Edinburgh Napier), Mia Jennings (Dundee), and Philine Rouwers (Edinburgh).
Moving to our Competitions Committee, and our two staff member positions were filled by Ben Graham (Heriot-Watt) and Johnathan McLeod (UWS). Aonghus Sellar (SS Football) was elected as the Sports Chair Representative.
The two student positions reopened nominations with interest to be registered with Julia Stenhouse.
Finally, our Development Committee saw Andrew Kirk (City of Glasgow College) elected as the College Lead. The two student representatives voted on were Anna Edvaldsson (Strathclyde) and Alex Chan-Taylor (Heriot-Watt).
Thank you to all those who attended our AGM and best of luck to our new elected representatives over the coming year!
