Volunteering
In the last 5 years our association has grown from approximately 200 players to almost 600 players but the number of volunteers on our board and across our teams has not changed. In order to maintain a high level of play and fun for our players we need to spread the work across everyone who is involved. We are asking that everyone participate in the operation of the league through the volunteer commitment requirement.
