Fast and Female’s Youth Advisory Council Applications are Open!

July 22, 2024 – Recruitment is open for Fast and Female’s Youth Advisory Council (YAC) program!

We’re looking for self-identifying young women ages 17-20 who have a passion for empowering girls through sport, physical activity, and/or education.

Our goal of the Youth Advisory Council is to build leadership skills for participants to take in to their future, and to continue helping Fast and Female empower girls with sport and physical activity by transitioning to the REAL Role Model program.

The skills youth will have opportunities to develop include:

  • Public Speaking
  • Effective Communication
  • Time Management
  • Confidence
  • Creativity
  • Program Development

This year, the YAC has developed several different roles that you can apply for, including Operations and Community Chair, Council Secretary, Fund Development Officer, Communications and Social Media Liaison, and a Programs and Events Liaison.

These roles are designed to support the growth and learning of the youth involved in Fast and Female. Interested applicants can apply directly for an executive position or as a general member. Once onboarded, general members are able to apply internally for an executive position should it be open past the yearly deadline.

Our waitlist is open year-round. If interested, please send an email to our YAC Program Coordinator, Siobhan at srourke@fastandfemale.com.
