2021 National 4-H Shooting Sports Youth Leadership Virtual Academy

This year, the National 4-H Shooting Sports Committee is offering a virtual 5-webinar series for youth interested in serving in the 4-H Shooting Sports Ambassador role for their state. The learning academy will cover a wide variety of intensive youth leadership skills to use in their role as a State 4-H Shooting Sports Ambassador. The schedule gives detailed information on dates, times, and topics. The National 4-H Shooting Sports Committee will provide each participant with the book, The Student Leadership Challenge, by Kouzes and Posner, to use throughout the learning experience. Participants that enroll should be committed to being actively engaged in the topic activities, book study, and panel discussions. Webinars will be recorded for youth to view later, however the webinars will build upon each other in content and learning. Youth that complete the 5-webinar series will be considered National 4-H Shooting Sports Ambassadors and are expected to participate with the California State 4-H Shooting Sports Committee. We will work through specifics of this Program (i.e. polo shirts, name tags) after the summer. The dates of the webinar trainings are June 16, June 30, July 14, July 28, and August 11, from 3-4:30 p.m. (CST).

Requirements:

· Participants must have passed their 14th birthday by January 1 and may not have passed their 19th birthday before January 1, 2021.

· Youth must be enrolled members of your State 4-H Program.

· Youth should be actively involved in your State 4-H Shooting Sports Program.
