Leadership and Volunteering Opportunities for Young People in Sport

Coaching, officiating and administration – there are numerous opportunities for young people to volunteer in sport. The Leadership and Volunteering Opportunities for Young People in Sport booklet produced by Sport England summarises what’s on offer from the national governing bodies (NGBs) of sport funded through the PE and Sport Strategy for Young People (PESSYP).

The hope is that through this resource young people will be made more aware of the vast array of sports volunteering experiences that exist locally, regionally and nationally, so that they can then be steered and encouraged onto the pathway which is right for them – leading into either more volunteering and/or a career in sport.
