Calling Parents For Help
We encourage parents of Junior hockey players to get involved during your child’s Sunday morning training session.
Volunteers are vital to ensure the safe running of each session. Parent volunteers assist can with the following tasks:
- Marking an attendance roll
- Encouraging the players in a basic warm up routine.
- Assisting the lead coach in following a simple coaching plan.
- Setting up and tidying away equipment for drills.
- Oversee the collection of each participant at the end of the session
If you are willing to help out with this role can you please email junior@clontarfhc.com with your name, your child’s name and age group.
All volunteers will be Garda vetted and will complete a short Safeguarding workshop with Sport Ireland.
