The Team Programme

If you're unemployed, unexcited and unsure of your future, we have something to get you going: The Prince's Trust Team.

Is it for people like me?

The Team Programme is for UK residents aged 16-25 who are unemployed. It's free and will not affect your Jobseeker's Allowance.

What happens on the course?

You will, among other things:

• be part of a team of 15 people for 12 weeks
• take on community projects of your choosing
• have an action-packed residential week
• get two weeks' work experience - perhaps at a football club.

What's in it for me?

• Practical skills that help you in a job and in life
• New friends and a lot of fun
• Belief in what you can accomplish
• Career advice and help with job-hunting and your CV
• The chance to make a difference in your community
• A nationally recognised qualification (see below)

City & Guilds qualification

While you're on Team, you'll work towards a nationally recognised qualification: a certificate in Personal, Teamwork and Community Skills. This could help your chances of finding work after the course is over.

Football and cricket

There are more than 60 professional football clubs and 14 county cricket clubs involved with the Team Programme. They provide:

• coaching sessions
• talks with players, manager and staff
• work placements for Team members
• help on CVs and job searches
• an inside look at professional sport, with stadium tours

See how football and cricket clubs are working with our Teams.
