Hawks' Committee

The Hawks' Club Junior Committee is charged with the running of the Club's affairs and ultimately has final say on all its activities. In practice the Junior Committee represents the views and caters for the needs of the Club's resident members.

The Committee is elected annually at the end of the Academic year, being announced at the annual May Week Hawks' Event. Only resident members may stand and vote. The committee is comprised of the Club President, Honorary Secretary and eight other general committee members.

Committee
Danny Ryan (CUFC)		Ian Ralby (CULC)
College: Gonville & Caius Curse: Medicine Danny has competed in 6 Varsity Matches (so far), winning 4 (1 as Captain) along with 4 BUSA Team champis. He considers his greatest achievement to be wiinning the British Champs with his Cambridge/Brentwood team. OTHER: He has a patch of fur(?)		College: St. John's Course: PhD, International Studies - Law 08/09: In a year from which he's unlikely ever to recover, Ian not only co-captained the men's lax blues in a very successful season (winning 15 out of 18 league matches and even defeating Slovenia's top team!) but also found the time to juggle his PhD and the small matter of presiding over St. John's May Ball.  He promises to give this much and more to the Hawks' Club this year.  Sporting Hero: Ed Reed Greatest Achievement: The jury is still out.
David Saunders (CUHC)		Stuart Jackson (CUHC)
College: Emmanuel Course: Medicine Deano plays hockey, very well. So well that he was named man of the match in the '08 Varsity Match (his Greatest achievment).  In 2008/09, Deano captained the CUHC whilst also serving on the Hawks' Committee. Sporting Hero: Beth Wild  Nicknames: Deano, Delia.  Other: Aspires to work with womens breasts in the future.		College: Girton Course: History Stuart follows in Deano's footsteps as a CUHC Captain also serving on the Hawks' Committee.  Claims his greatest achievement is surviving Huntingdon Road during rush hour every morning. Some, however, are quick to express their skepticism regarding the truth of these claims. Why on earth is the man up at this hour when his only lecture of the week takes place in the UL tea room on Wednesday afternoons? Sporting Hero: Andy Fordham (shares his attitude to nutrition in sport - or at least he used to).

Sporting Hero: Michael Johnson		College: Hughes Hall Course: Land Economy Shane is a very accomplished rower - a former international (USA) and the holder of all USA junior records for single scull events.
