Each of our teams requires a Team Manager for every game in 2015. The responsibilities, although not onerous, are essential to ensure that everything gets done, the paperwork is in order, and that the game day operations run smoothly.
We have Premier Division, Div 4 & Under 19s sorted, but we're looking for enthusiastic & reliable volunteers to look after our Div 2 & Div 5 teams. Especially on weeks when we're split over multiple venues, which makes it physically impossible for volunteers from other grades to double up.
The responsibilities are listed below - not difficult, but essential that they be fulfilled. If you are able to help out, please contact John Goode or Stuart Kennedy; or drop us a line at northshorefc@yahoo.com.au
