About L.U.C.K
The
University of Lincoln Canoe and Kayak Team, found in the heart of the
historic city of Lincoln, East Midlands, is a team open to any student
of the university which welcomes people of all levels of experience
including those who have never tried it before.
The
team has progressed over the past few years since its creation
to become the club we have today. We are not just a
team focused on kayaking and canoeing but are also
a close group who regularly take part in social events. This
year we are fortunate enough to have the assistance of After
Adventures, coaching and qualifications in kayaking and beyond. We all
from L.U.C.K thank them greatly for everything they have done for us so
far.
Every
year the club expands and this year is no different where we hope to
entering the BUCS events like the Washburn Wildwater Race with
the possibility to enter the slalom event, if only just for
fun. Otherwise every year you can be sure to see us around the
country in events such as Tyne Tour
in Hexham near Newcastle, NSR Nottingham, Newquay for
a week of surf kayaking on the sea plus a few smaller day
trips here and there just to keep us entertained! If you want the
stories just ask a team member in a LUCK hoodie!
The Committee
Each
year the team elects a committee at the annual AGM. The committee are
in charge of running the team on behalf of it's members, that includes
organising trips, socials and the team finances. The current committee
recently elected for 2011/12 are as follows:

President Daniel Woodhouse
Vice President Graeme
Carlisle
I'm
20 years old, a 3rd year journalism student at Lincoln and the Vice
President of this fine club. I've been kayaking since I was eight, and
I love it. I also like curry and beer if you wanna get on my good
side.
Treasurer Ben Henderson
Hi
I'm Ben Henderson, i'll be the club treasurer for the next year. I'm
currently studying Business and Finance and despite having only started
kayaking last year will do my best to make the year as enjoyable and
cheap for all!Oh and I'm also an avid scuba diver.
Social Secretary Sam
Thornley
So my job is social secretary for LUCK, I simply organise the best nights out, events and of course Newquay with the lovely Kelly. If you have an idea let me know and we will see what we can do. I aim to keep you all happy and make LUCK the best social society the University of Lincoln has seen! |

Social Secretary Kelly
Caschere
Kelly says she's pretty awesome. If awesomeness had a picture, it would
be her face. Apparently she's also the smartest and most beautiful
person you will ever meet and aims to make the
social side of Kayaking, the greatest Lincoln University has ever seen in any
of its societies or clubs.
Media / Web Ben Atkinson
Having
just finished the first year of my Media Production degree, I'm very
excited to be taking on the role of Media / Web secretary for
2011/2012. I've not done much Kayaking before, but i'd like to think
I'm learning fast!
Kit Secretary Dave
Gibson
Some
say Dave is probably way too obsessed with kayaking; it’s not as if he
lives, breathes and dreams of kayaking. He's the kit sec for L.U.C.K
and this means he spends too much time looking for new and the best kit
for the club, when he should be working in the studio.
