As a Sports Volunteer, you will usually actively support a project with your sporting expertise and commitment. You will help to expand the sports concept of the project to attract more children and young people in the future (Ongoing Activities).
In addition to the existing sports, other opportunities can be created to extend the range and expertise within a project. In discussion with the project mentor, we will identify which sports have additional potential in the organisation, club, school or community (Future Activities).
For example, cheerleading could be added to a rugby project. The rugby team can be supported from the sidelines during training or a tournament match. In addition, a new target group of children and young people in the community will be reached and enthused about sport. As a sports coach, you will have the opportunity to develop and promote new structures and future cheerleading coaches within an existing project.
