Challenge
Team UK trains young adult presenters and sends them to schools in teams
with a prepared presentation.
The Team explains why saving sex for marriage is so important to them and invites
pupils to consider making the same decision themselves. Practising chastity
is presented as a realistic and positive option. The presentation has no
religious references. A Team consists of two young men and two young women
between the ages of 18 and 28.
Challenge Team UK is currently seeking new presenters from September
08 to Easter 09 in term times. There is no charge to join a Team
and all expenses are paid while touring, including travel to and from home.
In addition, each team member receives £20 per week to help with spending
money.
Team members travel together in a vehicle which is provided by Challenge
Team UK. The itinerary is prepared in advance and the Team travels from
school to school staying overnight with host families nearby.
Becoming a presenter with Challenge Team UK is exciting, rewarding and cheap.
Applicants should be:
• Committed to the lifestyle choice of saving sex for marriage
• Good communicators, good relationally and have experience of working with
teens
• Good team players with leadership potential
• Able to supply good references
Before each tour the presenters attend an intensive preparation programme when
presentations are prepared and rehearsed and the details of scheduled
itineraries explained.

Each
Team spends the Autumn term based in Manchester and the North West. The Spring term
is spent touring the Midlands, East, South and West of the UK, including London.
School holidays are spent at home. Weekends are often free, but occasional
Saturdays are needed for youth groups, and occasional Sundays are needed to
travel to the next place. Otherwise, Team members can make their own
arrangements.
Previous team members comment: ‘Awesome experience! Great message we were getting across to the young people. I loved touring around the UK going to lots of different places. It made me grow in confidence a lot. I loved it when the young teens took hold of our message.’

Following application, interviews are held and start and finish dates agreed.
