For example, some football club parents want to start coaching or refereeing but can’t afford the cost of training. If you offer to subsidise or even pay for their training and qualifications, you’re removing that hurdle.
Another way you can remove barriers is by recruiting from your pool of parents and students. For example, Baskerville School of Gymnastics offers their members an extensive coach education programme, that can lead to a long-term career and some great life experience. The coaching pathway starts from 10 years old, and the school also offers apprenticeships, work-experience and P.E. teacher training across their 5 locations.
You can also add a field to your registration philippines rcs data forms that asks if parents would ever be interested in volunteering and what skills or special interests they have. That way when you need to find new volunteers you have a list to choose from.
Tip: LoveAdmin forms are completely customisable so you can add fields that ask prospective members what their skills are and if they’d ever consider volunteering. You then have a list of potential volunteers ready to go when you need new ones.
Why not get a stall at a freshers fair or open day event and promote becoming a coach, volunteer or another form of staff member?
Colin Fyfield from Aldershot Boys & Girls Football Club says, “We linked up with a local sports college, as they often have students completing their Level 1 and 2 qualifications and need placements. They can shadow our coaches and get the experience they need. Our hope is that they will then join the club and take on coaching their own teams. This works both ways, as we hope it will inspire some of our older players to join the college and follow the same path”.
Do you have a college or university close by?
