Ambassador Programme

Netball Scotland Ambassador Programme

The Netball Scotland Ambassador Programme consists of young people between the ages of 13 and 24 selected to represent the voice of young people in a two-year opportunity.

We want to provide a platform for young people to share their views and influence the future development of the sport within Scotland through our quarterly development forums. With the help of Netball Scotland Mentors will also support them to develop new life skills, and provide them with experiences that will increase their confidence, and opportunities to gain qualifications.

Meet Our Ambassadors

The Ambassadors taking part in our program will play a key role in influencing the future development of netball by identifying ways to help improve netball for young people in Scotland. They will also be encouraged to share their voice, taking what they learn back to their local clubs and local associations, inspiring local changemakers.
