Hello Team!
My name is Kunal, and I’m excited to run for captain of our men’s badminton team. With over 25 years of experience, badminton has been a constant source of joy and a way to de-stress. As an international student in diagnostic radiography, I bring a unique and mature perspective that I believe will strengthen our team dynamics.
A Global Perspective
I am of Indian heritage and have lived in Singapore for the past 11 years. My journey has taken me from India to Kenya, to Australia, and now to the UK. Speaking four languages—Swahili, English, Hindi, and Gujarati—allows me to connect with teammates from diverse backgrounds, fostering an inclusive environment.
Proven Leadership
One of my proudest achievements was captaining my high school team to victory in the national championship. I later served as captain at my previous university, reinforcing skills in motivation, calmness under pressure, and strategic decision-making. I understand the challenge of balancing academics, training, and competition, and I’m committed to helping each of you reach your potential.
Vision and Goals
As captain, my vision is to build a cohesive and competitive team. To achieve this, I plan to implement tailored training sessions to sharpen our skills, facilitate regular feedback so everyone feels heard, and organize team-building activities to strengthen our bond.
Commitment to Excellence
I am dedicated to creating a space where each team member feels valued and empowered. With a focus on hard work, sportsmanship, and unity, I aim to lead by example and help us achieve greatness together. Thank you for your support; I look forward to the opportunity to serve as your captain. Let’s make this season one to remember!
