The aim of the ANZAC Youth Leadership Award is to inspire, encourage and reward quality youth leadership in schools and youth organisations (includes Girl Guides, Air Force and Army Cadets) within the Renmark Paringa District Council.

The youth leadership qualities that we look for are:

• A sense of egalitarianism.
• A non-discriminatory attitude towards others with respect to race, gender, ethnicity, nationality and religion.
• A strong belief in fair play and a fair go.
• A friendly and outgoing personality.
• A strong sense of mateship and caring for others.
• A healthy scepticism, a touch of larrikin and a good sense of humour.
• The capacity to not take themselves seriously.

The award consists of a monetary prize and a letter of commendation for the winner.

The winners are chosen by each organisation themselves, through observations made throughout the year.

Presentation of the award is done by a member of the RSL at a time to be advised of by the specific organisation.
