VOLUNTEER EDUCATION SEMINAR

This seminar is aimed at supporting volunteers within clubs and provides advice and support to clubs looking for ways to recruit and retain existing volunteers. Volunteers are the life-blood of every sporting club/organisation. They dedicate hours of time and energy, working in a variety of ways. Without them, most sports clubs and associations would cease to exist. Volunteers are extremely valuable, and deserve considerable praise and thanks; however volunteers can sometimes be under-utilised or over-used and as such cease to be volunteers. Administrators, officials and coaches all fulfil an important role in sport. They may come from different backgrounds, and although some are paid, many act in a voluntary capacity themselves. The key to success is the way in which clubs manage the volunteer helpers for whom they are responsible.
