The MoreSports Youth Leadership program trains youth from 13-18 years of age (Grade 8-12) through a process of leadership identification, engagement and development that supports youth as leaders within their community. 

Through school, parks and community partnerships a variety of training experiences with recognized credentials is available at low or no cost. 

Youth leaders come from diverse backgrounds and sport experience, but they all share a passion for working with and helping kids. Aside from facilitating sports programs with an open mindset, Youth Leaders are largely trained in mentorship development; mentoring relationships often naturally occur between Youth Leaders and the children they coach. Volunteer hours and activities are tracked and recorded so each participant is provided with the necessary documentation and references required for future opportunities.
