Expert Advisory Group

The Selwyn Sports Trust rely on many amazing volunteers who support the delivery of our vision and priorities.  Without the support of this group, we simply couldn't do what we do for the Selwyn Community.  Alongside our Board and Staff we have an Expert Advisory Group who provide guidence and advice on the programmes and events we deliver.
