Underlying Rule for everyone all officers.
One goal of this club is to disseminate new information to our members. To educate members, especially novice members, about the sport of triathlon. Therefore it is paramount that each officer continues to learn about the sport. Whether it is through reading, videos, or talking to coaches you must always seek new information. Look at this as an opportunity to make yourself the best triathletes you can be. All the information you take in trying improve your form, your diet, your schedule, write it down and remember it. Officers must then take this information and help others become the best they can be. I have done my best to begin relationships with various professors, coaches and nutritionists on campus. The officers of this club have the privilege of continuing this relationship. Learning as much as possible. Every single person that has helped this club has enjoyed it AND offered there services in the future. Do not hesitate to ask for help. There’s nothing more flattering to a person when you ask them for help. I’ll leave you with one last rule. Sincerely thank your guest, Give them a T-shirt and let them know you would be grateful to have them come back.
