Satisfaction of assessment criteria
Applicants should clearly explain their motivations, leadership potential, and academic excellence in their applications. Evidence of past experience, successes, and future professional direction is encouraged.

Just do it - I know you are doubting yourself and thinking it’s not worth it and that you maybe need to add something else to your CV but - just do it there is no harm in trying - and try and be yourself and think about what you are adding to this institution.
