Parents:
-  We need volunteers to assist in the following areas:  Coaches and Assistant Coaches, lining the fields, flag deployment and retrieval, concessions, and team parents.  A few minutes of your valuable time will go a long way to ensure a successful soccer season and an enjoyable experience for the kids.  Registration fees for volunteer Head Coaches are waived. 
- Extensive soccer knowledge is not necessary for volunteer Coach and Assistant Coaches.  This age group will focus on learning the basics of soccer while engaging in “mini games” during practices to promote basic skill building and teamwork. 
- If you have any questions or would like to volunteer, please E-mail KickStart Commissioner Scott Holtzer at [email protected] prior to registration.
