Youth inspired by training program

Three young people who are members of Peninsula sports organisations were inducted into the 2013 Youth Inspired program on Monday, March 25.

Andrew Peachey of Woy Woy Football Club was successful along with Darnell Wisham and Lachlan Player, both of who are members of the Peninsula Junior Touch Association.

Participants undertook the first education module on volunteer management and learnt about how sporting clubs can better develop and manage their volunteers.

Youth Inspired continued with a mentor and parent information session on Monday, April 8, which provided an opportunity for mentors and parents to receive an overview of the program.

Youth Inspired participants will return at the end of April for their second education module on sporting club management where they will delve into the governance, legal and risk management issues that are vital for effective running of local clubs.
