Leadership opportunity to all 5th and 6th year pupils

The role of a Young Ambassador

At the heart of the Young Ambassador programme is the principle that their views, and those of other young people are heard, valued and influence decision making; and that they are engaged in driving change.

In this context, a Young Ambassador has two key roles:

  • to promote sport, and motivate and inspire other young people to get involved in sport in a wide range of settings within their local communities, including schools, clubs and community organisations
  • to influence six key aspects of school sport:
    • extra-curricular sport provision
    • links to community sport opportunities
    • opportunities for competition
    • celebration of pupil achievements in sport
    • leadership opportunities for young people
    • PE in schools

As role models and leaders for other young people, Young Ambassadors can have a pivotal role within their school and wider community.
