  2. Amplify: Communicate the perspectives and experiences of young people involved in netball across Wales, taking extra care to amplify the voices of those from minoritised localities, backgrounds and demographics.
  3. Champion: Act as ambassadors of Netball, championing the work of Wales Netball in and beyond the netball community to help make Netball in Wales, Bigger, Better and Bolder!

If you or anyone you know are interested in becoming a member of the ‘Forward Futures Collective’, applications are open now and will close at midday on the 8th April 2024.
