Team Leaders
Over the duration of the programme, every team leader will take on the responsibility of leading a group of young people, facilitating and delivering workshops, guiding and supporting groups in sessions delivered by Youth Sport Trust staff and a wealth of other organisations. Through their time with us, team leaders are supported to provide an inclusive, motivating and developmental event environment in which the exceptional young people attending our camps can thrive in.
Our events involve disabled and non-disabled young leaders, promising young coaches, talented athletes and young sports volunteers.
Through this role, there are opportunities to:
- Mentor young people - support young people in their own development and maximising the opportunities presented to them
- Lead and manage teams - full of enthusiastic young people and volunteers
- Improve communication skills - with people of all ages and abilities
- Network and work in a team environment - working with Youth Sport Trust staff, welfare teams, inclusion teams, NGBs, Athlete Role Models, other Team Leaders and a whole host of other organisations involved with sport development in the UK and abroad
- Improve decision making and problem solving skills – team leaders are given training to take on large responsibility for high quality running of events
- Practice facilitation and public speaking – alongside a number of events where Team Leaders take on a delivery role, they are also provided training to effectively facilitate sessions to groups of peers and young people.
