An Opportunity to Shape the Future of British SUP: Announcing the new Youth Development Lead Role
The landscape of competitive stand-up paddleboarding in the UK is entering its most exciting chapter yet. As GBSUP works alongside our partners at Paddle UK, BSUPA, and Surfing England to build a world-class competitive framework, we are united by one core belief: the future of our sport lies with our junior paddlers.
To turn this belief into action, we are proud to announce the creation of a vital new volunteer position: the GBSUP Youth Development Lead.
This is more than just a role; it's a chance to be the architect of the future. We are searching for a passionate, dedicated individual to take the helm of our youth program. This person will be the driving force behind creating and implementing a national strategy, fostering a vibrant and supportive community for our young athletes, and building the pathway that will take them from their first race to the international stage.

Are you the leader we're looking for?
If you have a passion for SUP, a vision for youth sport, and the drive to inspire the next generation, this is your opportunity to make a lasting impact. You will have the autonomy to develop new events, forge partnerships with clubs and youth organisations, and build a team to support your vision.
This is a chance to give back to the sport you love and to play a pivotal role in its growth and success for years to come.
If you are ready to lead the charge, we want to hear from you.
