Youth Ambassadors
The Lord’s Taverners Youth Ambassador Board comprises of 16 young people who have engaged in our cricket programmes.
The Lord’s Taverners’ Youth Ambassador Programme is a two-year training and development for young people, ages 14 – 25, who have participated on one of our programmes.
Through a combination of training, practical experience and peer support, Youth Ambassadors develop valuable skills and confidence in areas including:
- Developing and sharing their story to demonstrate impact
- Public speaking and presentation skills
- Event planning and delivery
- Influencing positive change
- Community engagement
- Recruitment and interview skills
Our Youth Ambassadors share their experiences with supporters, partners, staff, volunteers, and the general public, helping others understand the impact of our work from the perspective of the young people we exist to support. They also lead projects within their communities and act as role models within their hubs.
In 2023-24, we recruited our first cohort of 13 Youth Ambassadors, who shared their experiences with a wide range of audiences, while developing their own confidence, skills and leadership experience along the way.
In 2026, we welcomed 16 new young people from across the UK. Together, our Youth Ambassadors represent a diverse range of backgrounds, experiences and programmes, united by a shared commitment to creating positive change through sport. Find out more about them below.
