Boccia England is delighted to welcome Kirsty Bean to our team as Regional and Volunteer Engagement Officer.
She joins in a brand-new role based in the North West. As well as leading localised development in the region, Kirsty will be a central contact for volunteers across the sport, particularly around our competition programme. This is an environment that Kirsty is familiar with having volunteered at clubs, competitions and major international events in boccia over recent years.
Kirsty commented on her appointment,
“I am excited to be joining the team at Boccia England! I’ve been involved with local clubs for eight years and have officiated for the past two and a half years, as well as coaching on the England Pathway.”
“I recently completed my degree after writing my dissertation about boccia, and spent the summer in Paris, working as part of the boccia technical team for the Paralympic Games. I am now really looking forward to working with the boccia community in the North West and brining new people to our amazing sport.”
Kirsty will be settling into her new role over the coming weeks and arranging discussions with people across the North West. If you would like to speak with her, please contact kbean@bocciaengland.org.uk
