It is quite obvious that despite the good job Don Brooker has turned in in previous years, as Sports Officer on the Executive, he has exhibited some shortcomings. To the best of my knowledge, he is responsible for all matters pertaining to sport at the Students' Executive level and he has not done some of his most important duties of his office.

When a student of the University is awarded a University Blue in any sport, he or she can be certain that a lot of work has gone into weighing up his or her case on its individual merits. Firstly a nomination must be forwarded from the club concerned to the Sports Committee, which is presided over by Mr Brooker, and this nomination is considered at great length in the light of the student's activities both in the sport and in the administration of it.
