VOLUNTEERING
COULD YOU BE THE PERSON WHO MAKES A DIFFERENCE?

Volunteering at Alton Rugby Club - Your Club

Successful rugby clubs are more than just victorious teams on the pitch. Players and coaches are vitally important but so are the many dedicated volunteers who work hard behind the scenes to help the club function.

You don't have to be a rugby expert to get involved. Whether you're a current player, someone who has hung up their boots or a person who has never picked up the oval ball, you could be a valued rugby volunteer

If we do not have Team administrators, coaches, referees, fund raisers, marketing experts and maintenance helpers (to name just a few), Rugby (especially Rugby at Alton RFC) would not be the amazing game it is.

You don't have to be 'sporty' to be a rugby volunteer because there are opportunities for everyone to give time. Whatever skills you can offer, we need you, whatever you think you can do.

The Benefits of Volunteering

Besides being a rewarding experience, volunteering enables you to gain independence and confidence, meet new people and develop new skills that may even improve your grades or job prospects. There is no better place to start than at Alton Rugby Club.
