YOUTH REPRESENTATIVES
A huge thank you to Harley Pell and Adam Lightfoot for being our Youth Representatives over the past year. It's not easy putting yourself forward for such a role and I think they have done a great job.
As we agreed, the Representative role will be a yearly one and so anyone who would like to put themselves forward can do so. Heres a quick reminder of what a Youth Representative will need to do:
The Youth Representative is the principal contact for young members of the club and promotes the interests and views of young people at the club’s meetings.
Duties
• Represent the interests of other young members of the club.
• Organise and facilitate youth meetings and/or attend regional youth forums linked to Go-Ride Development Group meetings.
• Communicate relevant information to young people within the club.
• Attend committee meetings and the club’s annual general meeting.
• Welcome new young members into the club.
• Support volunteers within the club and generally get involved with all aspects of running the club.
Skills
• Approachable and friendly.
• Good listener and effective communicator.
• Passionate about cycling.
• Enthusiastic and good motivator.
• Ability and knowledge to act as spokesperson for your club.
• Great organisational skills.
The Youth Representative will need to represent young members at club meetings, attend club committee meetings that are held. Where you will be able to represent the interests of young people in your club.
The Youth Representative needs to be able to augment their existing activities by taking time out to speak to new members and make them feel welcome, or canvass young people for their opinions on specific topics. Most tasks can be carried out by attending club events such as coaching sessions and races.
Ideally this is a role for a current U16 person. Anyone who would like to put their name forward, please feel free to contact me. Adam and Harley, you can stand again if you wish.
The closing date for applications is Wednesday 15 November.
