Getting to know the YAG
Why did you sign up for Pass on Your Passion?
Sofie: To enhance my career prospects and gain more knowledge into netball organisation and implementation. |

What types of volunteering do you do, where and how often?
Sophie: Coach U14s, run my own youth team (sorting team sheets, money, kit and sit on the league committee) help out with the younger team at school and also helped to lead some Back to Netball sessions.
How did you get into volunteering?
Grace: It's something I always wanted to do after seeing how rewarding it could be and first got into it through secondary school and my netball club.
What extra opportunities has POYP brought to you?
Sofie: Networking with many other coaches, officials and volunteers. Seeing different levels of the player/umpire pathway and lots of skills for delivery, organising, adapting and inventing situations.
What do you think of the rewards you receive for completing POYP hours?
Sara: Very useful- I have used my water bottle and clipboard, my hoodie is lovely and cosy and I am about to claim back my £50 voucher. My Goalden Globe is sitting pride of place on my mantle!
What do you like best about netball and why?
Lauren: All of it! I really enjoy planning events and watching other people enjoy them and I love coaching young children (7-11 years)

Current Volunteers have their say“It’s good being able to develop and contribute to the future of netball and help others achieve their goals.”
- Meyer “I coach the year 7’s at school and seeing how they’ve come on from the beginning to end of term, it’s great to know I was involved in their progression. I can not wait for next year!” - Becca (aged 12) |

“I’ve done over 100 hours in just 1 year– this will be a great benefit when doing my UCAS from. I’ve got more experience to help with my level 1 coaching and C award umpiring. It’s definitely worth signing up– you get some fantastic prizes!”
