Empower Young Londoners: Join the LYG33 Programme 2024/25
 

London Youth Games have launched an application process for their 2024/25 LYG33 team member programme.

With the successful engagement of over 2 million participants since launched, this initiative developed the ambition for young Londoners aged 14-24 to help shape the future of sport in London through the 33 different boroughs. 

London Youth Games are looking for passionate, diverse individuals to be part of LYG33, embodying the spirit of the 33 boroughs of London.

Through the programme you gain insights into invaluable development experiences, opportunities to attend exclusive engagement events and projects that impact local communities.

The deadline for applications for the 2024/25 cohort is Monday 11 November, 11:00 am.

Crucially, applicants do not have to be sports fans or previously engaged with LYG – only a commitment to making a positive difference to sport and physical activity opportunities for young Londoners is required.

Its recent success is a testament to the programme's commitment to diversity and inclusion.

Of 2024 participants, 46% were from a historically underrepresented ethnicity and 52% were female.

There was also involvement from a total of 18% young disabled Londoners who had contributed to the programme.

LYG33 members enjoy access to some of the most prestigious, iconic sporting venues in the world such as Wembley Stadium and Twickenham with unique networking opportunities, mentorship, and personal development workshops to add to the wonderful program.

Returning leadership team member, Micah, shared, "LYG33 has improved my confidence and speaking ability and taught me how to put my ideas into action to help make a positive impact."

The new season has recently been kicked off with two days of planning and bonding for the LYG33 leadership team, and a great year ahead.

We want to see young Londoners take the opportunity to shape the future of London sport around LYG33 and also gain some great skills for their future as well.

As the Business Development Lead for LYG33 I am delighted to see this coming to fruition.

Don't let the deadline on this fantastic programme pass you by.
