Your Game News

Your Game media volunteers
Volunteering can be a great introduction to the media.

July 2009

Eleven players who starred in 2008 Your Game have begun a week-long stay at the FA's Young Leadership Camp at Warwick University.

They will take part in a series of workshops, looking at all aspects of the game including team building, coaching, futsal and sports science. The camp concludes on 17 July.

Click the links below to find out more and please mention Your Game when applying.

If your organisation has opportunities for young people which you'd like Your Game to promote then please get in touch.


Grassroots Grants

Grassroots Grants is a £130 million government programme that aims to invest in a thriving community sector.

The programme, which runs until 2011 is divided into two parts: an £80 million small grants fund for community organisations; and a £50 million endowments programme to enable local funders to generate additional donations on a matched basis and invest them in endowments, thereby building their capacity to provide long-term funding for frontline community organisations.

It is funded by Office of the Third Sector and delivered by the Community Development Foundation.


Your Game v Match of the Day

Ever wondered what it takes to get Match of the Day's Premier League highlights edited and on your screens just a few hours after kick-off?

Two young people from each of 2009's Your Game festivals will get to find out as they produce their own version of the BBC's flagship football programme.

On a two-day trip to London they will learn the skills required to put the show together before producing their own 15 minute version.

To be in with a chance of winning this prize fill out a short application at this summer's festivals.


Mediabox

Mediabox ran a filmmaking workshop and competition that has produced a number of sports-based films that will form part of the Your Game v MOTD show.
