Council
The LUCA Council is the democratic heart of LUCA. It brings together representatives from all member clubs to shape the future of student athletics in London and the South East.
What does the Council do?
- Decision-making: The Council votes on key proposals, rules, and policies that guide LUCA’s competitions and activities.
- Representation: Each member club has a voice, ensuring that decisions reflect the needs and interests of all students.
- Collaboration: The Council provides a space for clubs to share ideas, raise concerns, and work together on initiatives that strengthen our athletics community.
Who sits on the Council?
- Each LUCA member club nominates representatives (usually a committee member such as President, Captain, or Secretary). There is no limit to how many representatives you can send, but each club only gets one vote.
- The LUCA Executive Committee attends meetings to provide updates and answer questions.
- Trustees and advisory roles may also be present to support governance and strategy.
Meetings
The LUCA Council meets at least three times a year:
- Start of year meeting – Early October
- Mid-year meeting – Mid Jan / Early Feb
- Annual General Meeting (AGM) – to elect officers, review finances, and vote on constitutional matters.
Extra meetings may be called when important decisions are needed.
Why it matters
The Council ensures LUCA is run by students, for students. Every member club has equal influence, and every decision is made collectively. By taking part, your club helps decide how our leagues, championships, and wider programmes are shaped.
Get involved
If you’re a student and want your voice heard, speak to your club committee about becoming a Council representative. Clubs will also receive agendas and minutes so all members stay informed.
