Volunteer Requirements

Registration for this program will be limited in size by the number of volunteers willing to assist the region. Please consider volunteering as a head coach, assistant coach or team manager. If you’re interested in volunteering, you may submit a volunteer application any time before the season begins.

Our region strives to provide referees for each game in the 10U-14U divisions. Our goal is to provide three (3) qualified referees every game. To achieve this goal, we need several slots to be filled each week. In order to ensure that we have the referee slots filled, each team needs to provide volunteer referees.

Please reach out to our Registrar if you need additional information or see our Frequently Asked Questions page for more information.
