The time has come for the next generation of leaders to step up and assume the leadership roles of this team for the coming academic year AY2012/2013. For new members (or old members who do not know about this), there will be 3 committee posts available:
1. Captain
The person who will be steering teamNUS Contract Bridge for the next academic year and deciding on the direction the Team will take. You must be committed to the bridge team and have a genuine desire to raise the standard of bridge in NUS. Needless to say, you must be willing to make sacrifices for the sake of bridge, and the first one will probably be your time. A leader leads by example and everyone should be able to see your passion for bridge. You do not need to be the most talented player, but you definitely need to be the most committed player with a high willingness to learn and to share. Aside from commitment and passion, there will also be administrative work that you will have to (be willing to) handle.
2. Vice-Captain
This is the person who will work closely with the Captain, and assist him/her in any way. All leaders need some kind of support and while you may not be in the limelight like the Captain is, you are indispensable to the Captain and everyone knows it. The Vice-Captain is the right hand man of the Captain and will need to as committed as the Captain in the running of the Bridge Team. All tasks that the Captain is required to do will probably also fall on your shoulders to some degree.
3. Team Manager
The finances of the team will be in your care, and this is a heavy responsibility, as the amounts involved are not small. You will be accountable to the bridge team as a whole for the finances. You will be receiving and spending money on behalf of the bridge club, and any revenue or expenditure will need to be recorded and cross-checked with the Captain or Vice-Captain. The Team Manager will also be in charge of the team's welfare. This means you need to get to know everyone in the Bridge Team and aid the Captain and Vice-Captain in communicating with the team. Also, the team manager will be the one taking care and maintaining this blog.
