The program takes the big topic of volunteering and breaks it into six smaller, club-focused, actionable segments. Sporting clubs and local government staff engaging with sporting clubs are encouraged to select the date and time of the workshops most suitable to them.
Workshop One introduces the program, the resources available to you and introduces the first actionable segment – ‘Plan’. This segment provides a framework that enables strong volunteer management that is right for your club.
Date: Monday 9th October

Workshop Two re-caps the program and introduces the second and biggest actionable segment – ‘Recruit’. This segment has two key topic areas, the first of which is creating position descriptions that provide clarity to all. For clubs, the type and size of volunteer roles needed. And for potential volunteers, understanding what is involved. The second topic area is recruitment methods to consider. Some you may know, others which are new to sport can give your volunteer program a lift.
