Young volunteer programme

The Young Volunteers of today are the future Coaches, Team Managers, Club Volunteers of our sports.  Are you aged between 14 and 18 years and looking for training opportunities to help you volunteer within aquatics.

Currently, the South East Region is developing a new programme, which we hope to launch in September, in line with the aquatics season and school year.

The programme will aim to:

• Engage young people in a wide range of volunteering experiences within clubs
• Provide young people with the opportunity to access high quality and accessible volunteer training
• Continue to improve the volunteer experience for young people across aquatics
• Provide Regional recognition for volunteering at your club

We strongly suggest you speak to your club about the opportunities available to you,  to ensure they will be able to support you and have a clear understanding of what roles you would like to aim towards. 

• Teaching and/or coaching
• Event organiser/volunteer
• Event official

There are courses that are available with Swim England, that you can attend now, which can help you to develop your skills and support your club .
