The Queensland Firebirds and Netball Queensland are excited to announce the formation of our Youth Advisory Board.
In creating the Youth Advisory Board, we have two primary objectives:
- to listen to the voice of young people: create a clear and formal avenue for young people to influence and shape our decision-making; and
- to build leaders for the future: to develop our youth and prepare them for leadership roles and responsibilities in the future.
The Youth Advisory Board will act like a “Shadow Board” providing insights, advice, ideas and challenging the status quo - across the Queensland Firebirds Club and Netball Queensland. We truly value a diversity of perspectives and experiences and we believe that netball’s future will be stronger and more successful if young people are informing our strategy.
Are you up for a Youth Board role?
We are looking for a group of young people with a strong connection to netball- Player, coach, umpire, or volunteer. What is essential is a passion and connection to our purpose -transforming lives through netball. We are not looking for the best netball players, rather the best thinkers, collaborators, innovators, entrepreneurs and creators – who all share a connection to this great sport. Further information including criteria will be published at the end of April.
Applications will open shortly.
