If you volunteer to help an athletics organisation or event, or if you are working on an athletics-related project, we want to know about it and we would like to show you the sport’s appreciation.

For the purpose of the European Athletes Young Leaders Community volunteering is defined as working on behalf of the sport without payment for time or services.

Adding the hours you volunteer on your personal profile page will move you closer to being able to receive a recognition certificate signed by the community’s strategic partner, European Athletics, which you can add to your Curriculum Vitae and which may help you advance in your academic or employment career.

Recognition Levels

The recognitions offered are:

Bronze Certificate – for 100 logged hours
Silver Certificate – for 250 logged hours
Gold Certificate – for 500 logged hours

Notes: Hours logged for each certificate count towards the next level of award.
