Young Leaders

Cricket Wellington is committed to providing opportunities for young people to serve in cricket leadership positions. Young Leaders is a youth leadership programme that supports youth cricketers to develop their leadership and sports delivery skills, offers opportunities to volunteer and be involved in their community, and have mentoring sessions with professional players, both current and past.

By the end of the programme you will have :

· Developed confidence and competence in a range of leadership behaviours

· Volunteered in a variety of leadership roles in your local community

· Gained access to positive and knowledgeable mentors

· Receive ongoing support to continue to build on your leadership journey


From 2025 Cricket Wellington will be running Young Leaders every two years so there will be no intake for the 2025/26 season.
