Volunteer Information

Coaches and staff dedicate hundreds of hours to the organization, so we are asking only a few from you. There are guidelines for each job, some of which last throughout the season. We are very dependent on your help, therefore if you commit to a job, you must carry out that assignment. Should you fail to show up, you will be charged for your missed time and your child will not play in that game. There will be no exceptions. The fee for volunteer hours is $75 per season.
