Calling everyone in Societies and Sports Clubs.
It is time for all Kingston's Societies and Sports Clubs to elect their new leadership teams for 2025/26.
As we have a new website we thought we should explain how student group elections will work:
1. Nomination Period = March 24th to March 30th
This is how you can step forward and volunteer yourself for any of the positions in any of the Sports Clubs or Societies that you are a part of.
The only criteria in order to step forward is that you need to be a current student at Kingston University, a paying member of the relevant group, and need to not be graduating from Kingston University before February 2026.
Every Society doing an election will have the roles of President, Media Officer, and Treasurer available with some having additional roles like Vice President, Events Officer, and/or Community Officer.
Every Sports Club doing an election will have the roles of President, Media Officer, and Treasurer available with some having additional roles like Vice President, Captain, Social Secretary, Competition Coordinator, Wellbeing Officer and/or Fundraising Officer.
Make sure you are logged in so that you can apply, then head over to the page of the society and/or sports club and then nominate yourself!
2. Voting Period = All Day March 31st
Throughout the whole of March 31st you will be able to vote in all the elections in the Societies and Sports Clubs you are a current paid member of. Every member can vote and should vote because if no one is voted into the leadership roles then the society or sports club might have to shut down!
Once you have voted you cannot undo your vote or change it after submitting.
Make sure you are logged in so that you can vote, then head over to the page of the society and/or sports club and vote! The results of the voting will be announced in the later weeks to the current committees of the student groups and those who were successful in the election.
If you have any issues with nominations or voting please reach out to sportsclubs@kingston.ac.uk, societies@kingston.ac.uk and/or studentsunion@kingston.ac.uk.
