Gloucestershire FA Youth Council

Young Volunteers

ARE YOU PASSIONATE? ENTHUSIASTIC? COMMITTED? MOTIVATED? DETERMINED? ARE YOU AGED BETWEEN 12-24 YEARS OLD?

Do you love football? Perhaps, you're playing the game on regular basis, coaching at your local club or refereeing in your spare time but want to do something more?

Maybe you love football but you aren't currently involved in the sport but want to get started?

Whatever it is, and wherever you are on your football journey, we can help you take the next steps and support you on your way to become a future leader of the game; making decisions and shaping the direction of football in Gloucestershire.

Through a combination of Young Volunteer programmes, leadership opportunities, courses and funding we can help you develop and achieve your goals.

Reporting Concerns

It'S EVERYONE’S RESPONSIBILITY 

If you feel that an adult connected to your league or club (e.g. a referee, coach or a volunteer) is mistreating someone under the age of 18, there are various confidential ways you can report this.

By ‘mistreating’, we mean behaving towards under-18s in a physical or verbal way you believe is threatening or makes the young person feel scared or bad.

Find out more and watch a short film The FA has produced explaining how to report your concerns. Of course, everything is completely confidential.
