Search for young sporting ambassadors in Carmarthenshire

The race is on in Carmarthenshire for young sporting ambassadors.
Carmarthenshire council’s sport and leisure team are looking for inspirational and dedicated young people to become Gold Young Ambassadors.
You need to be aged 16-21 and in sixth form, college or university. At gold level, ambassadors will assist the county co-ordinator in providing overall leadership of the Young Ambassador programme in Carmarthenshire.
The programme develops young leaders and volunteers further by providing them with responsibility of being an ambassador for PE, school sport and sport within the community. There are three stages – bronze, silver and gold – that start at primary school age right through to university level.
The idea is for each school, college or university to have good sporting role models that encourage pupils to take part in sporting activities.
Carmarthenshire student Nia Jones has just landed a role on the national steering group. The Platinum Young Ambassadors have their voices heard on sporting matter across Wales
Active Young People officer, Rhian Davies: “Nia has been involved in the young ambassador movement in Carmarthenshire at silver and gold level over the last three years. It’s excellent news to see her progress to the Young Ambassador National Steering Group of Wales. Nia is a committed and enthusiastic individual and this was rewarded in her also winning Young Volunteer Award at Carmarthenshire Sports Personality Award last year.”
