YC TIP: Referees/Coaches and administrators
If your club is having difficulty in finding referees/coaches or administrators, you can offer parents who are interested a discount in your respective programs. Another option is to ask a corporate firm if they wish to donate any employees for community service. Better yet, make it part of your registration and club program/constitution to aid the club. That when a senior player or parent joins your organisation he/she must do more then just play or register their child(ren).
We need you to work with us as 08/09 will be Bigger and Better. Let’s continue to raise the level of Youth Footbal, as we have the quantity and now it’s all about QUALITY!
SCC P. Giving is on Saturday April 5th.
