The enthusiastic baseball player told Melbourne University Sport in an interview: “My advice to any student or alumni looking for like-minded people to hang out with, a team environment, a community, or a professional development opportunity is to get involved with one of the University’s sporting clubs – it can be a life-changing experience.”

During and post-pandemic, Mr Andronas maintained a high membership status and as president, he led initiatives to strengthen the Club’s alumni network.

“I’m proud of the opportunity we’ve provided for hundreds of people, from beginners to elite athletes, to participate in baseball at their own level,” Mr Andronas said.

“During my time as President, the Club grew from five teams to nine, and watching people learn the game and enjoy playing it with their mates is what community sport is all about.”
