Volunteer
Responsibilities
,
Butte United is
staffed and run by volunteers, from those who set up and take down goals, to
running the concession stands, to getting all players registered and games
scheduled. We count on parents to help with many of these tasks and your coach
will let you know how you can help.
Parents are expected to volunteer 2 hours for each player per season,
not counting time to support local tournaments.
When everyone pitches in, the jobs are done quickly, efficiently, and
within budget. Without parents’
individual help, costs would have to be increased to hire people to perform our
regular tasks.
Regular league
game tasks are scheduled and coordinated through head coaches. When it's your
team's time, do all you can to help keep our fields neat, picked up, and goals
set up and taken down safely. Please
remember, no kids, even big ones, are permitted to set up, take down, or
otherwise transport goals (liability issue.) It always is a good idea to clean up a game, even if
your team is not assigned this responsibility.
