PARENTS
VOLUNTEER POSITIONS
The team is run almost entirely by volunteers. The only individuals who receive compensation for their services are the coaches; all other roles are performed by volunteers. That is why it is critical that parents get involved and volunteer to perform any of the roles described below.
We expect at least one parent of every family to volunteer for the team at some point. During registration, parents will have the chance to express which is their first, second and third preferred role for which to volunteer. With this information the team will assign volunteers for each role.
