Juniors Helpers Required

The Broome Soccer Association is set for a big year this year with regards to our junior program. With interest expected to peak after the World Cup, we are painfully aware that we are underequipped in terms of people-power to deal with this.

Our juniors program is set to start on Wednesday 21st July at 3:30pm and continue for approximately 8-9 weeks. The sessions will run for approximately one hour.

We are putting out a call to all interested parents who would like to put up their hand to volunteer an hour or so of their time each week to help with the following tasks:

1. Someone to stay with the trailer and act to : assist with first aid if required ; direct kids / parents with queries ; help locate gear from trailer as required by age group leaders etc

2. A reserve or two who can help fill in when coaches are away.

3. Grant Applications - look for opportunities for sponsorship to help subsidise cost (juniors ran at a considerable loss for the Association in 2010)

4. Training of Coaches

6. Preparation - pumping up of junior balls / checking whether "goals" are still usable (or whether we just use cones)

7. Pick up of equipment / trailer each week

8. Set up different junior areas from 3.30pm

9. Help pack up

10. Washing bibs

As you can see, there are several jobs which the existing committee cannot realistically complete by themselves. If we cannot get enough volunteers, we may have to run the juniors program in a smaller capacity, or possibly not at all.

If you would like to volunteer and help us out, please contact Tim Gray at tim.gray1@det.wa.edu.au
