Chairman - David Keogh Dave joined the club in 2005 and has since dived in more exotic places (Fiji, Hawaii, Sri Lanka, British Colombia, Capernwray) than most of us have managed in a decade. He is learning to be a doctor, possibly even a brain surgeon, and also has a dispensary from a previous life. Dave does hope to be a grown up one day, and thinks a stint as SUSAC's chair will help... The club ethos (diving, dinner, beer) is safe in his hands. Dave likes: being in control, helping people, latin names of plants, roast lamb. He doesn't like: rollercoasters, diving in a three, fish pie. |
Dive Officer - Owen Petchey Owen has been the diving officer of SUSAC for many years, and he seems well suited to his role as the supreme controller of our diving. Owen has a strict regimen of going to the pub infrequently, but making the most of it when he does go. Owen likes: Super Mario Brothers, badger watching, and shortcrust pastry. Owen dislikes: Signing things, yellow apples, and getting caught between two mirrors. |

Training Officer - Will Rhodes The man with the plan, Will runs the club’s training programme. Having progressed from assistant training officer last year to full training officer this year, Will hopes to one day achieve the unique rank of the Supreme Training Officer. Will likes: Fine wines, rugby, and brutalist architecture Will dislikes: The Goodwin sports centre, Xbox, and the books of Revelation, Exodus, & Romans |
Assistant Training Officer - Steph Gall As SUSAC’s assistant training officer, AKA Will’s biatch, Steph helps Will run the training programme and organise instructors and students in such a way that knowledge will pass from the former to the latter. Originally a crossover member, Steph joined SUSAC after spending many moons diving with PADI, paying lots of money for very little return. She has now seen the error of her ways and has learnt that people who instruct voluntarily are usually much nicer and more committed. Steph likes: The Beatles, Post-it notes that come in many colours, and James Bond. Steph dislikes: Premature baldness, chavs with sticks, and orphans |

Secretary - Jennie Evans
At the end of last year, Jennie graduated from social secretary to proper secretary, and has gone from strength to strength in keeping us all in line and organised. With a Mum who makes the best chocolate cake in the world, you should always be nice to Jennie. If you’re having issues with your membership, want to be on/off the mailing list, or just need someone to help you spell your name on the club paperwork, Jennie’s your girl! Jennie likes: Hide and seek, SUSAC hoodies, and anything made by the Staedtler company. Jennie dislikes: Partial differentiation, her neighbours, and black dogs with orange eyebrows |
"Boat" Officer - Tom Donald A Boat Officer elected on a manifesto of the disposal of whatever boats can be found (dynamite and viking burials have been under consideration), with additional responsibility for finding kit to invest any money we find laying around in and updating SUSAC.com. Tom likes: booze, gadgets, all-day breakfasts, pub quizzes. Tom dislikes: unneccesary labour, cheap lager, updating susac.com |

Welfare Officer- Jen Cowling Jen is the SUSAC welfare officer; a brand new role this year, which basically makes her your diving Mum. Jen’s job is to look after your welfare; make sure you’re not being bullied, discriminated against, or upset in any other way, like having your stuff jumped up and down on or thrown down a well. Jen has done more dives than you’ve had hot dinners, and has buoyancy control that makes the fish jealous, so if she’s your instructor, you’re in safe hands. Plus her kit makes her look like an underwater ninja. Jen likes: All black dive kit, supermarket price competition, and the history of the textile industry. Jen dislikes: People forcing the novices to drink alcohol, cheap gin, and the decline of old values. |

Treasurer - Adam Newton A man who, through a combination of world class beards, interesting hats, and drysuits that make one look like Mr. Incredible, has reached the peak of financial management; diver debt collection. With his Seth Rogan-esque looks and mathematicians’ charm, Adam has proved that some people are just plain immune to the effects of alcohol. On another note, Adam is also the very rarest kind of vegetarian; the one who doesn’t get on other people’s nerves. Adam likes: Your money, my money, and The Office. Adam dislikes: The credit crunch, shaving, and children with deep voices |

Social Secretary - Ross Peel Having gone through Social Sec's at a disturbing pace through 2007-8, SUSAC hopes this multi-talented gent from East Riding can stick about. His piano playing, french speaking and ability to burn holes in his legs with engineering tools will all prove invaluable in achieving this. Let's hope he doesn't take on any more bloody commitments..... We're yet to decide if Ross is allowed a photo. |
