We’re pleased to announce the members stepping forward to join the BD Youth Panel, a new initiative designed to give a voice to young people within the sport.  

Earlier in the year, we welcomed applications from BD Youth members aged 16-25 and BD members aged 25-27 with recent BD Youth experience, who were keen to actively become involved in the development of our youth activity.  

The Panel will have a unique opportunity to voice their opinions, thoughts and ideas, along with that of their peers; identifying areas for improvement and providing feedback on current and future activity. Our Panel members will become lively voices in the youth community, volunteering at BD events, collaborating with young people in other sports and offering their support to those who wish to be heard and helped.
