HFA Young Leadership Programme and FA Step into Sport Programme

The Herefordshire FA Young Leadership Programme is aimed at Young People, both males and females, between the ages of 14 and 19 years of age. It provides a programme of co-ordinated opportunities to increase the potential for young people to participate in volunteering and leadership through football, in a safe, fun and structured environment.

The HFA's Young Leadership Programme provides local support for young leaders who wish to engage in the FA's Step into Sport Programme. The National Programme requires volunteers to commit to a minimum of 10 hours of volunteering within a Charter Standard Club or Focus School. From an initial 10 hours of volunteering the Young Leader could commit to a further 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175 and 200 hours of volunteering within a football setting for which they will be rewarded by the FA and the County FA.

The HFA will also provide any Young Leader signing up to the 2010 Step into Sport Programme a programme of support, training and development workshops to help them develop as a Young Leader along with access to an incentive package to support their development as a Young Leader in Football.
