Youth Ambassadors of Change Programme

The Scottish FA has begun the search for the next group of Youth Ambassadors of Change today. This programme provides young people the opportunity to share their views and opinions on a range of topics that affect them and their experience of the game.

During the programme, Ambassadors will take part in several events over their two-years, as well as bringing forward your own creativity and passion with a project designed and implemented by you. This is a fantastic voluntary opportunity where you will receive all travelling and associated expenses, great training opportunities and professional mentorship to support your development throughout the programme.

Before diving into the application process, please read the role description, as well as the guidance notes below. These notes will take you through the process step by step and allow you to have a fuller understanding of what is required before inserting your responses.

The Scottish FA welcomes and recognises the benefits of a diverse workforce and is committed to promoting equality of opportunity.  Under our company policy, we are committed to interview all applicants who meet the minimum requirements for the role and who is disabled, or from an ethnic minority. For further details, please see the bottom of the page.

The application is a blind process; therefore, we ensure that any personal details given at the end of the form will not impact your application.

Who can Apply

If you are aged between 16 and 24, have a passion for Scottish football and change, we want to hear from you.

The only requirement is that you can attend at least 2 Congress, 2 Training Days and a Project Day a year. Full engagement with training, your project and Mentor is expected too.

Deadline is Friday 14th July. Interviews will look to take place between 24th July – 4th August.

See below for a potential project that you can drive change through.

Project 1: Creating a more inclusive and diverse environment in Scottish football.

Project 4: Engage and support a new generation of Referee’s to come through.

Project 2: Supporting more girls and women to be involved in Scottish football as players, coaches and officials.

Project 5: Developing opportunities and prospects for football to be played at all age groups and levels.

 

Project 3: Engaging young people in innovative ways to support the Scotland National squads.
