Group Nomination of Brendan Allen and Ryleigh Egan for the Queensland Yound Volunteer Awards for 2010 In a show of public acknowledgement and appreciation of Brendan Allen's and Ryleigh Egan's on-going involvement in the delivery of the Wynnum Manly District Cricket Club's in2CRICKET Have a Go Program, the Club nominated them for the Queensland Young Volunteer Awards for 2010 in the Sports and Recreation Volunteers category. A copy of their nomination is provided below. The Nomination This nomination for the Queensland Young Volunteer Award in the Sport and Recreation Volunteers Category for 2010 is for Brendan Allen (aged 19 years) and Ryleigh Egan (aged 15 years) for their individual and collective volunteering roles in ensuring the successful delivery of the Wynnum Manly District Cricket Club's in2CRICKET Have a Go Program. Wynnum Manly District Cricket Club's in2CRICKET Have a Go Program It's the critical question for sporting clubs concerned about their long-term success, existence and relevance: what are the essential policies, strategies and practices that must be in place to ensure the on-going recruitment of young players and their subsequent retention, first as players and then as coaches and administrators with the sporting club? Part of the answer to this question for the Wynnum Manly District Cricket Club is its delivery arrangements for its in2CRICKET Have a Go Program. The in2CRICKET Have a Go Program is primarily targeted at 5 to 8 year old boys and girls to give them their first positive exposure to participating in the skills and delights of playing Australia's most loved sport cricket. The program aims to develop basic motor skills and coordination in young participants whilst engaging the children in physical fitness in a fun and exciting way within the context of team work, communication, co-operation and fair play. The Wynnum Manly District Cricket Club delivers its in2CRICKET Have a Go Program on Friday nights over summer during school terms 4 (October to December) and 1 (February to March). For the 2009- 2010 cricket season, this program attracted 70 to 80 boys and girls, their parents and younger siblings each Friday night. As the season progressed, the fun and enthusiasm of the players and their family members grow and at the end of each session they were all rewarded with a sausage sizzle and a sense of great satisfaction. Volunteering Role of Brendan Allen and Ryleigh Egan Brendan Allen and Ryleigh Egan are keen and talented young cricketers who are graduates of the in2CRICKET Have a Go Program and are commencing their senior grade cricket careers, but concurrently are able to balance their own cricket training, playing commitments, school/work and social engagements with their cricket coaching volunteering. Whilst most young men on a Friday night are either hanging out having a good time with mates, doing a shift with their part-time employer or relaxing at home not doing much, Brendan Allen and Ryleigh Egan spend the majority of their Friday nights during summer as volunteer junior coaches for Wynnum Manly District Cricket Club's in2CRICKET Have a Go Program. Under the direction of a senior coach, Brendan Allen and Ryleigh Egan help deliver the in2CRICKET Have a Go Program to ensure its nightly success. Brendan and Ryleigh are there to provide a young link between the older adult coach and the very young participants.
