Leamington Hibs Young Leaders

 
A new venture for the club, hibs are trialling the Young leaders programme in an effort to encourage some of our loyal player base to put something back into the club, learn the ropes of coaching future generations of Hibs teams and perhaps develop a long term interest in something they can call on in later life. Young Leaders Award courses are run locally in schools, community halls, prisons or wherever there is a suitable venue and incorporate both practical learning sessions and a period of volunteering in the local community. Participants do not need to be budding sports stars – an interest in sport and a positive attitude are all that are required.

Benefits

  • Personal Development – increase in confidence, self-esteem and self-management
  • Obtain relevant skills and experience that can be transferred into a variety of situations and environments
  • Young Leaders are well respected in their community and welcomed by clubs and organisations who need volunteers to operate
  • An Award often encourages people to undertake further training/education courses to help achieve long term goals, careers and ambitions
  • A nationally recognised award that is a stepping stone to employment or further education

Most of all, the Awards are practical, fun and enable people to make new friends.
