How can I help?
- Coaches are needed. No experience necessary. Even though many of the coaches from last year have agreed to help again this year, we still need volunteers to coach.
- If you are interested in coaching, please contact us at [email protected]. There is a special discount on the registration cost for volunteers who sign up to coach.
- We also need team moms/dads. These volunteers will typically arrange snack schedules, getting names on jerseys (if that is something the team wants to do), help with contacting parents, etc. After the teams have been assigned, if you are interested in helping, please let your coach know.
- We need volunteers for concessions, set up and break down, and perhaps more! Sign-up Geniuses will be sent out prior to the first game. Parents can sign up to help in 30-60-minute increments. We ask that every family volunteers at least one time during the season for at least an hour.
Once registration is complete teams will be put together and uniforms will be ordered. Coaches will be notified of their team roster, and the team's practice and game schedule. Coaches are responsible for contacting their team players. If you have NOT heard from your coach by February 3rd, please contact us at [email protected].
