Three exciting opportunities to join London Youth Games!

Do you want to play a part in creating the ‘world’s largest and most inclusive city-focused Youth Games that is accessible to all’? Are you passionate about ‘using the power of sport and physical activity to create life-changing opportunities for all young Londoners’? Do the values of ‘integrity, collaboration & inclusivity’ align with your own values?

If ‘Yes’, then we may have an amazing opportunity for you!

About the London Youth Games

For 47 years we have proudly delivered an annual Games season which now includes 33 different sports and over eighty events for young Londoners, providing opportunities in both local settings, through London wide competitions and at iconic Olympic and Paralympic Legacy venues on the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. With our fantastic support from Sport England, the GLA and the 33 Boroughs of London we are excited to enter the next phase of our development and build on our five-year strategy “Every Young Londoner’s Games”.

We are committed to providing opportunities through participation, volunteering, coaching and officiating for all young Londoners, with a commitment that our workforce and the Games become reflective of London’s rich diversity. We encourage applications from people from diverse backgrounds including Black, Asian, and ethnically diverse people, disabled people, women, and people from the LGBTQ+ communities.

This is a particularly exciting time to join the London Youth Games Foundation as we look forward to celebrating our landmark 50th anniversary celebration having been set up to celebrate the Queen’s Silver Jubilee in 1977.
