Parent Volunteer Jobs
Team Representative
- Act as liaison between coach and parents, translating any concerns, problems or other information.
- Coordinate parents to bring (healthy) food and drinks to the tournaments.
- Assist the coach as needed.
- Coordinate with board members as necessary regarding apparel orders, uniforms, and club activities.
- Keep accurate records of money raised by players, such as shirt sales. Forward all monies to the club treasurer.
- Coordinate any and all fundraising efforts with the parents and players.
- Must have e-mail access and willing to utilize it.
- Research and obtain hotel reservations as close as possible to the school where we play. Players usually room with their parents so a block of rooms are reserved for each player and coach.
- Correspond with parents regarding hotel, location, phone number, dates, directions, reservation deadline, etc. Parents will be responsible for actually reserving their own room.
- Provide directions from hotel to school gym to each parent and coach. It is a good idea for the travel coordinator to arrive early (on Friday evening) and actually locate the gym, particularly if it is in a strange town or location. This will prevent a situation of 8 players, parents and coach leaving the hotel early Saturday morning, having “bad” directions, driving around lost trying to find the school, and missing the 8:00 am coaches meeting.
Keeper of the ball bag and all balls. Locate balls after each warm up, store in the bag, and keep until next warm up. Coaches will take the balls at the end of the tournament so that they will be available for practice.
